Yeah, as teachers we exist for the masses eh? Well, I won't pretend I could really teach any courses on Asian theater, but its come up a bit and I have read some. And I agree, most gen. ed programs woefully neglect the East, which is partially why I chose it in the first place. Orienalist ideas still pervade society unfortunately (Said is dead...again).
Its been years since I have heard the song, but I will look it up again. I used to have few discs with all the Monty Python songs on them, but one of my college roomates stole it on move-out day! Bastard!
Drunkenness was only an excuse Its WHY they were drunk in the first place that made them contemplate life?

hee hee those are TERRIBLE.
I use existentialist angst to justify my own drunk self- it seems to be an effective excuse!!
Orientalism is, indeed, a pervasive problem, and I'm so impressed that you're trying to eradicate it. You're changing the world!

Funny you should say that. On my university's billboards the saying goes "Bowling Green State University: changing the world one degree at a time."
That pun is worse than anything Leith could come up with about grammar!

I'm not touring with anyone who's only obsessed with getting exploded sperm whales all over everything. bukaki jokes are only funny once. ONCE.
