A nod to Kierkegaard and Walker Percy: existentialist tomfoolery, political satire, literary homage, word mongering, a year-round summer reading club, Dylanesque music bits, apocalyptic marianism, poetry, a prisoner work-release program.

"Korrektiv's pithy and bold approach separates it from the blogospheric herd, and the combination of poetry, theology and opinion makes it unique. You might not always agree with Korrektiv, but you can't ignore it." -- The Times
"I'm a Lance Corporal in the Marine Corps stationed in Mosel, Iraq. Between missions I don't have a lot of time to get caught up on the news. Someone from my group turned me on to Korrektiv, and I have to tell you that it's become my one stop shop for news and opinion from back home. Thanks Korrektiv."
Unlike many commentary/literary blog sites such as Godsbody, NRO and Quotidian Quintilian, Korrektiv is a news/literary blog site which practices real journalism. We know what it's like to work a source or track a lead. We know what it feels like to drink scalding coffee from a papercup in a freezing warehouse during a police stakeout. We've covered natural disasters such as the New Orleans flood, and we know what it means to meet a deadline. So, the next time you NEED to know, type in www.korrektiv.org. We're live, we're local and we're the only website that cares about you.

As I said earlier, I am going to be hanging in there by my thumbnails from here on out. I begin Ancient Philosophy in a few days. The books for this one class total about 1000 pages from the Polis to Aristotle. I have no idea, since this is not one of our regular professors what is going to be expected. I will drop in and try to keep up with you all if I can, but I am afraid this may be the last time I post for a while.
It was fun while it lasted. When I emerge from the wasteland of ancient and medieval philosophy, some time next August I will be completely done with my coursework for my Masteres.
Say a prayer for me, I am not sure I will survive this summer.
Angelmeg, thanks so much for following along with this. I'm curious to know if you made it through Lost in the Cosmos. And if so, what did you think of it overall?
You have a lot of exciting reading ahead of you. Let us know what you find out and how the re-entry goes.
