Just to be clear... you're not counting exactly how many steps you take to work or anything--right?

Almost done with The Road to Wigan Pier, and 30 pages into Beyond Good and Evil, which is surprisingly readable and enjoyable so far.
Damn Apeman, you are reading some heavy hitters! You should check out Schopenhauer after you get done with Nietzsche.
I will

Just got past the part where Nietzsche gets through destroying Schpenhauer's reliance on willpower as the fundamental force, for lack of a better word/understanding

No way man. Nietzsche was an important thinker, but Schopenhauer ran circles around him and had the better mind and belief system. I'm almost certain that Nietzsche fucked that horse he was talking to, though I don't have any proof of this.

No it's not, that sums it up perfectly, I can't stand naive idealistic Orwell, just another run o' the mill faux bolshie, now 1984, that's the Orwell I like, the one who came to grips with where socialism really ends, after he had seen for himself how the Lefties really were down in Spain; Big Brother Stalin pulling their strings from Moscow. Bitter and disillusioned, that's how I like my Orwell.

Yeah, you shouldn't dismiss Smitty so quickly, apeman. Maybe it's time you read some of the major Canadian authors, like... um... somebody help me out here.
