as we marched down to fennario 60's redux...

Had to larf at rosemary mcleod in todays dompost.
she called freud an old fraud.
not bad.
then she professed a simpering desire for bill gates as her type of person.
she seems to rely on intuition in her love life as if somehow she had freewill but she knows as do all intelligent people that while some actions are autonomous and spontaneous most are caused and only freud worked it out completely.
as we said back in the sixties.
heavy man.
inna gadda da vida and all that.
anyway rose is entitled to her journalistic opinion.
my opinion is get the rag to fork out for Lucy Freeman's "Freud Rediscovered" fr the dinkum oil.
and if you dont like it just deny it.
especially when you suddenly realise that  another person with the requisite training can sit there and sum you up completely in five seconds.

I tried jung but he was worse than the french obscurantists and a phoney to boot and the rest of them made it up as they went along.
denying freud but relying on his system and recasting it.
you see if you read freud and compare and contrast vis a vis any other psychological system the contradictions become obvious.
that makes it doubly dangerous.
dig?
fifties hipster jargon.
dig?
no defence against that and Aristotle warns against this argument 2,5000ya.
so I must confess to reading the whole corpus of freuds work.
a long tortuous path into madness and sanity.
the journey was worth every step.
 There is so much to say.
just roll with the punches or really come to grips with the issues.
where are the mcloys, harrimans, kissingers, etc now.
the commentariat has gone soft.





Barack Obama

Start at the first album and take the trip.
