Win, Place and Show @ 05:22 pm
A recent silly poll had people voting on the most influential living intellectuals in the world out of a selected group of 100 eggheads.
The top three have been announced:
1. Noam Chomsky
2. Umberto Eco
3. Richard Dawkins
A clean sweep for atheism!
Now if only:
*two of them weren't abrasive and obnoxious...
*the world honored public intellectuals the same way it does ath-uh-letes...
Then... I don't know where I was going with this anymore... My urban light-rail of thought was derailed by a parked SUV of Improbability. Somehow I think it ended in my being elected Benevolent Dictator of Earth.
