I started my stats class today and already got some problems wrong,  which is a great way to start I think,  cuz the material gets harder  and i get lazy-er  so   c+? actually im hoping for a b...
I just finished a book called listen, little man!   by a guy named wilhelm reich,   its an interesting read,  the author is a freudian based pyschoanalyst as well as a scientist, doctor and more,  he developed a theory of Orgonamy  which has been banned by the fda and by banned i mean complete... books burned and seized etc,  he actully got locked up for a few years.  anyway  he is quite a megalomaniac  or whatever  ut at the same time  I would almost say this book should be required reading. He doesnt go into any organized details or any theories  but  in a very almost drugged babbling rant   complains and dispells the foundations of society and our organizing principles and such...  its hard to understand sometimes because he doesnt seem to edit at all, but its got some good stuff and some interesting pictures every couple pages.  
in the end he comes to a sort of conclusion about,  if people would just live forthemselves, take pride and love what they do and who they are with  then  there would be no need to fight, hurt, save or cure anybody  because everything would be right again.   its strange though how  the concepts of the time play into his somewhat distorted view of things.     i dunno this is a shitty unorganized review of an unorganized book.
