   Last night a little dancer
   Came dancin to my door
   Last night a little angel
   Came pumping on the floor
   She said a come baby
   Ive got a license for love
   And if it expires
   Pray help from above
   Because

   In the midnight hour
   She cried more, more, more
   With a rebel yell
   She cried more, more, more
   Owww
   In the midnight hour, babe
   More, more, more
   With a rebel yell
   More, more, more
   More, more, more

   She dont like slavery
   She wont sit and beg
   But when Im tired and lonely
   She sees me to bed
   What set you free
   And brought you to me, babe
   What set you free
   I need you here by me
   Because

   In the midnight hour
   She cried more, more, more
   With a rebel yell
   She cried more, more, more
   Wowww
   In the midnight hour, babe
   More, more, more
   With a rebel yell
   More, more, more

   He lives in his own heaven
   Collects it to go from the seven eleven
   Well hes out all night to collect a fare
   Just so long, just so long it dont mess up his hair
   Oww ha

   I walk the ward for you, babe
   A thousand miles with you
   I dried your tears of pain
   A million times for you
   Id sell my soul for you, babe
   For money to burn for you
   Id give you all and have none, babe
   Just a, just a, just a, just a
   To have you here by me
   Because

   In the midnight hour
   She cried more, more, more
   With a rebel yell
   She cried more, more, more
   Wowww
   In the midnight hour, babe
   More, more, more
   With a rebel yell
   She cried more, more, more
   More, more, more

   Oo yeah, a little baby
   She want more
   More, more, more, more, more
   Oo yeah, a little angel
   She want more

   Rufus & Co., have you ever drunk Rebel Yell? The Wife and I did a tasting of under-$10 bourbons, and the Safeway Select brand beat out Rebel Yell. I say this as a longtime bourbon drinker and a friend: reconsider. At least Early Times has a literary pedigree. Not that I’d really argue for Early Times either. It’s whiskey. Spend a little. If you want light and lovely, try Makers Mark. Wild Turkey is classic. But there are plenty of others as well…Rebel Yell may cause the South to rise again, but perhaps not in a way you would desire…

   p.s. I thought this year’s Korrektiv Summit was supposed to be held at Casa Godsbody. I went and replaced the tetherball just for you…

   Well, it was provided by Henri — who is normally a Wild Turkey drinker but now claims this is his default bourbon. For myself I had some bad formative experiences with bourbon during my misspent youth and consequently have trouble judging one from another. I generally opt for Jameson’s Irish Whiskey if I have my druthers. Which was the official beverage of Korrektiv Summit I. And, yes, IC, we had pizza. And cigars. And I’m not sure about my co-bloggers, Matthew, but I’m going to be on a surfing safari in the vicinity of Casa Godsbody shortly after Christmas this year, so watch out!

   Sigh. You guys are going to be “summiting” and I am going to be studying my brains out.

   Life is so not fair.

   and just think, some day soon I will have a piece of paper that will say I have Mastered some useless knowledge. I am so blessed. (do you suppose I have hit that proverbial wall that comes somewhere between the end of the program and the actual completion? I think so!)

   Hoist one (or two, or ten) for me at this summit. I will be with you in spirit living vicariously through your posts as I wade through the Ancient philosophers.

   Matthew: I thought it was pretty good. But then I grew up pouring Jack Daniel’s into cans of TAB during my free period, so maybe my tastes aren’t the most reliable.

   And it went damn well with the pork rinds, I might add.

   Angelmeg: Recall that one outward sign of Socrates’ personal sanctity was his ability to drink large quantities of alcohol and maintain control of his faculties. He was also able to refrain from the homosexual advances from Alcibiades. At the Korretiv summit we were able to achieve these high standards of holiness as well.

   Except Henri.

   Why was I not informed of the Korrektiv Summit?

   It’s the filthy rags and matted hair isn’t it?

   It’s too bad I would have brought better liquor and guns.

   I have found that the only way I can make it through this semester is by consuming mass quantities of alcohol (for me at least, which means drinking alcohol every night to dull the pain of having to read the deadly boring stuff I have to read — not Kierkegaard)

   If consuming mass quantities of alcohol and staving off same sex advances makes one a philosopher then I may be well on my way to that lofty goal after all.

   woo hoo

   the end of august can’t come soon enough.
