I fucking DOUBT it
The Cat Hunt
So, there was a blizzard.
Day 0: We take roll call of the cats. There are three cats missing.
Day 1: The hunt begins. Alex and I launch into a perimeter search of the house. There are cat prints moving towards the backyard. The prints lead us in circles. There is snow in our shoes and we are becoming tired. The basement windows have screens in front of them. We notice some of the windows in the back were ripped open. Alex sticks his hand into one of the screens. Nothing. He dips his hand in another and pulls out the most skittish, shifty, grey and white cat of them all, Ridley. Ridley tries to escape from Alex's hands; it'd rather die than go back in the house. He throws the cat inside.
ONE CAT DOWN. TWO CATS TO GO.
Day 2: We arrive at the house in snow pants and boots. We are ready. Alex goes to open the door so we can plan our search when I hear a soft meow behind me. I motion to Alex to pause. Behind me, nothing. To the right, nothing. The left, nothing. The sound gets louder yet we see no cat. Suddenly, Alex points up and I see the kind-hearted, grey cat Lilith looking at us the roof. We get a chair, Alex grabs Lilith from the face and throws her inside the house.
TWO CATS DOWN. ONE CAT TO GO.
Later That Day: We arrive back at the house from our search and there stands the long-haired, orange and black Sweet Potatoe. The cat is grabbed with equal violence and tossed in the house. Here is the kicker: Sweet Potatoe wasn't missing. When doing roll call a cat was identified to be Sweet Potatoe. This cat is short-haired, orange and black. This is not Sweet Potatoe. We ask the family if they have any knowledge of owning a cat with these features. They do not.
Explaination, a stray cat has been living in the house without the family knowing.
TWO CATS DOWN. ADDITIONAL CAT FOUND. ONE CAT TO GO.
Day 3: We suit-up extra rough today. Snow pants on, snow jacket, tracking materials, we are ready. Alex and I have also added another member to the search party, David. We arrive at the house. Before we get to the door we see the loving, long-haired, grey Desdemona. We gently take the cat inside. David pulls out a joint.
THREE CATS DOWN. ADDITIONAL CAT FOUND.
CAT HUNT SUCCESS!

holiday haikus
finger cut
But then if I just have scar out, it means that yeah, I have a scar and I don't give a fuck, no need to show it off. Makes it a lot more bad ass and if a girl notices it I know she will dig me that much more. Instead of asking about the scar she will probably be asking about my junk, straight to the point.
I'm stuck at my house right now though so no girls have seen it yet. Can't wait to get back to emerson and show this off. Do you guys have any advice?

The Gettier Problem
Until the mid 1960s, it was believed that Knowledge=Justified True Beliefs. However, Edmund Gettier fucked it up....
_______________________
Farmer Franco is concerned about his prize cow, Daisy. In fact, he is so concerned that when his dairyman tells him that Daisy is in the field, happily grazing, he says he needs to know for certain. He doesn't want merely to have a 99 percent probability that Daisy is safe, he wants to be able to say that he knows Daisy is safe.
Farmer Franco goes out to the field and standing by the gate sees in the distance, behind some trees, a white and black shape that he recognizes as his favorite cow. He goes back to the dairy and tells his friend that he knows Daisy is in the field.
Yet, at this point, does Farmer Franco really know it?
The dairyman says he will check too, and goes to the field. There he finds Daisy, having a nap in a hollow, behind a bush, well out of sight of the gate. He also spots a large piece of black and white paper that has got caught in a tree.
Daisy is in the field, as Farmer Franco thought.
But was he right to say that he knew she was?
The philosopher, Martin Cohen, who described this scenario originally, says that in this case the farmer:
- believed the cow was safe;
- had evidence that this was so (his belief was justified);
- and it was true that his cow was safe.
However, we might still feel that the farmer did not really know it; his justified true belief was actually operating independent of the truth. Herein lies the core of the problem of 'knowledge as justified true belief'.
