Well, there's been Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance and Annie Dillard's down there by Tinker Creek.... I'd say you could have the philosophy of just about anything you want if it's your world view and you've got a good grasp on arete, not to mention on the pitons.

I was going to develop a philosophy around the little fluttering butterly icon that flew at the top of my computer page, but, when downloading some dadburned download and getting messages I didn't understand, I somehow have changed my default to Netscape Navigator for MSN...and the butterfly is gone. Kaput! And all my web site favorites have flown away with it! And this happening to one who only last week watched her entire computer crash!!!! Not that I'm complaining or anything, but I'm complaining.

Best regards,
WW
