Christopher, I'm becoming very interested in the relation between
narrative fictions , I think those are what I tell my bank manager,
and reality, whatever that is.
Yesterday, my pals Victoria and Vanessa were round, we had a little
wine-party, and lots of laughs, afterwards, when Vicky went back, she
found her two elder sons having a knife-fight. There's blood all over
the kitchen, forensics are round, both her boys are in custody, so
what's the reality, the ha-ha time we had at my place, or the horror
of afterwards?
That is an open question, in the sense that I don't have an answer. As
for philosophers, they suck.
