descartes supposedly said i think therefore i am but who knows really what he was thinking and who was he really. it seems he didn't know jack  about animal life. i pop in and out of a longish essay on pragmatism snatching tidbits, it's just how my mind works, these days! and my eyes are kind of dimming, or maybe my brain. i am because i feel things but sometimes i don't even know what it is i'm feeling. confusion. confuseus.
