The Bigs



You should all be reading the bigs. If not for anything other than for the occasional amazing post that frames everything inside of a quaint Victorian intellectual conceit.

But read them. You know who they are, even though you never put them in your blogrolls. They are the Urquelle of the blogo-sphere. Come clean. Lose the ego. Wash away the sin of narcissism[1]. We all stand on the shoulders of giants and it is dishonest and unhealthy to act otherwise.

(I guess I am making two points - one meta and one the concretion of reality and metaphor. Take from them what you will.)

[1] If there is one thing I know about, it's sin. And the sin of omission is sin enough for me. Be warned.
