Borges once wrote about Joyce's work that, "In Ulysses there are sentences, that are not inferior to Shakespeare or Sir Thomas Browne." It has occured to me that what I most want out of life is for someone to say something like that about my work. And I believe that this is my best shot at it:
"In the Concept of Irony there are a sentence, that are not inferior to Borges."
Go on, say it.
Please.

Understatement is cooler than drool.
Jake--beyond a doubt that is the greatest statement ever made by any human being.

Justin, I would say that begging is beneath you. But I've been reading your blog. So I'll say this... This is by far the best blog I have ever read in my entire life, which is beginning to be quite a long life. And although blogs have not been around that long, this is going to go down in history as one of the finest. I mean, forget the fourth quadrant of Cleveland Heights, you might just take over the other three-fourths! Damn, Justin, you're good. Not only is your blog conceptually superior to other blogs, but I find the graphics to be nearly eye-candy. Also, I hear you are one HOT blogger. It's all good... eh, great... ah, Borgesastic!
... and now I must go do something to calm myself.
Sir Justin sounds a tad formal. Why not we all give you different terms of endearment?
Like sweetie. Or cupcake. Or darl.
I hate repeats.
