if anyone was interested, when i called my deceased
father a few posts back "god," i was referring to
"him" in both the breadwinner and in the psychological
sense when i was grwoing up.  that he was 50 years old
when he sired me only added to that.  the cool thing
is that i managed to bypass the traditional
"irish-male oedipus complex" (the assumption that very
well-eduacted persons with whom i attended college
still probably have).  it's actually quite nice having
a very older irish sister (being a young german dude)
to teach me better about women and "feminine wiles"
(laughing).  i hope that both this and that original
post didn't offened anyone.

i've only read "the transperency of evil."  sorta
rubbed me the wrong way.
