Essences

I haven't read every blog in the blogosphere, but of the ones I've read, Examined Life has some of the very best writing available anywhere, on- or off-line. If I could REALLY write, I'd want to write like this. Engaging (read: funny and smart) discussions of philosophy, academe, politics--and the delights of parenting two precocious children who also happen to be charming. See--and delight in--this post, keeping in mind that Zoe is in preschool.
