This Really Gets My Goat

"A giant straw goat - the traditional Scandinavian yuletide symbol - erected each Christmas in a Swedish town has been burned to the ground yet again.

The 13-metre (43-ft) high billy goat has been torched 24 times since it was first erected in Gavle in 1966."

In this video, James Geary discusses metaphor, which he says is a way of thought before it is a way of words. He explains the mathematics of metaphor and concludes that metaphor is not just the detection of patterns, but the creation of patterns.

The Anarchist Outpost (CCCP #1) is an online magazine -- magazine, not a blog -- produced by the Executive Committee of The Creative Community Collaborative Projects (The CCCP). For more information about membership in The CCCP, please contact Cornelius Jannik Katt, Secretary of The CCCP Executive Committee and Editor of The Anarchist Outpost.

Submissions
The Anarchist Outpost welcomes, nay solicits, your submissions. Please send ideas and submissions to Mr. C.J. Katt. We will gladly take them from you and make them our own. If they're good, we'll let you play in our sandbox as long as you can play quietly and with your own toys. Not the red truck, Eric -- it's mine!

Questions and Comments
To comment: close your web brower and any other programs that are running, unplug your computer, and return it to the manufacturer because if you need these instructions then you clearly have no business on the internet, Senator Stevens.

All questions may be directed to, you guessed it, Mr. C.J. Katt. Yeah, he's sort of a big deal around here. If you just don't get the site, then you should probably read it more. If you just don't like something, then you didn't get the joke. We can't help it if you're ill-humored.
