There&#8217;s a Bruegger&#8217;s Bagels within walking distance (close enough<br \/>\ndespite the other bad wheel&#8211;a jacked up knee), and I brought along four<br \/>\narticles from Cybercartography and excerpts for 712 from Susan Langer&#8217;s <i><br \/>\nPhilosophy in a New Key<\/i> and <i>Mind: An Essay on Human Feeling<\/i>. At<br \/>\nleast three hour&#8217;s worth, given that I also intended to enjoy an everything<br \/>\nbagel or two, make a morning of it.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Bruegger&#8217;s was all I expected it to be. I found a quiet corner table<br \/>\nand worked steadily through the four geography articles, which included Michael<br \/>\nPeterson&#8217;s &quot;Elements of Multimedia Cartography,&quot; a surprisingly polemical<br \/>\narticle on the shortcomings of paper maps, and Mark Harrower&#8217;s &quot;A Look at the<br \/>\nHistory and Future of Animated Maps,&quot; a solid overview of motion in &quot;geovisualization.&quot;<br \/>\nI was assigned to discussion-leading for Peterson&#8217;s article for class this<br \/>\nmorning. Harrower&#8217;s piece covers the brief history of animation as it<br \/>\nconverges with mapping&#8211;first done by Walt Disney artists to present invasion<br \/>\nanimations in 1940 (35). I finished the bagels and hot tea, wrapped up the<br \/>\nreadings for geography (more about specifics from them in another entry) and<br \/>\nmove on, taking up Langer around 11:00 a.m. I was reading <\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Now, I do not believe that &quot;there is a world which is not physical, or not<br \/>\n  in space-time,&quot; but I do believe that in this physical, space-time world of<br \/>\n  our experience there are things which do not fit the grammatical scheme of<br \/>\n  expression. But they are not necessarily blind, inconceivable, mystical<br \/>\n  affairs; they are simply matters which require to be conceived through some<br \/>\n  symbolic schema other than discursive language. And to demonstrate the<br \/>\n  possibility of such a non-discursive pattern one needs only to review the<br \/>\n  logical requirements for any symbolic structure whatever. Language is by<br \/>\n  no means our only articulate product. (89)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>when the speaker volume was inched up just a bit. It was a slow<br \/>\nlate-morning hour in Brueggers, prime for GNR&#8217;s &quot;Paradise City.&quot; Only that<br \/>\nreading Langer with &quot;Paradise City&quot; all around&#8230;I packed up and walked back<br \/>\nover to Pepboys where they told me it&#8217;d be another hour and a half. I<br \/>\ncontinued with Langer, finishing the excerpt from _Philosophy_ and reading<br \/>\nthrough pieces of the chapter from _Feeling_ on &quot;Prescientific Knowledge,&quot; and<br \/>\nthe Monday edition of the Daily Standard before wandering around the store<br \/>\nlooking at seat covers and air fresheners.<\/p>\n<p>The tire was never repaired. After looking at it they decided that it<br \/>\nwas too close to the wall to risk repairing. And they didn&#8217;t have the<br \/>\nreplacement tire in stock, but they were kind enough to refer me to the Goodyear<br \/>\nlocation down the street. And so the much-too-long wait ended; I drove toward<br \/>\nthe grocery store with the same small nail lodged in the same tire, feeling<br \/>\nunlucky except that I&#8217;d managed a satisfying amount of reading. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><span class=\"span-reading-time rt-reading-time\" style=\"display: block;\"><span class=\"rt-label rt-prefix\">\u23f3 Approximate reading time: <\/span> <span class=\"rt-time\"> 2<\/span> <span class=\"rt-label rt-postfix\">mins<\/span><\/span>My title is a direct riff on Pepboys, specifically the store on Erie Blvd. where I arrived with the Element yesterday morning at 7:56 a.m., small-nail-in-tire.
