I am still groggy; I haven’t done much but nap this afternoon.
In fact, I am moving a bit like this fellow (or gal):
Evolutionary psychology is often used as a pinata. Some embrace it, though it appears that they don’t know what they are embracing.
Here, Jerry Coyne critiques David Brooks’ use of it and it isn’t pretty. Bottom line: some evolutionary concepts might sound easy to explain, but they really aren’t; it is best for non-experts to not draw conclusions on their own without consulting experts.
Social I’ve always scoffed at “multi-tasking”; evidently I am not the only one. Basically it is possible to “multi-task” if one wants to do a bunch of things poorly.
Politics
Dick Morris on Mitt Romney. Note: it appears as if he is trying to rally the Newsmax crowd to his candidacy because he is the best that the Republicans have.
Talk about flip-flopping; this is way different that what Mr. Morris said earlier.
Note that Mr. Gingrich is in the race and Ms. Bachmann has yet to declare. So it would appear that Mr. Huckabee deciding not to run would enhance either of their chances, no?
