The Philosopher's Song (Monty Python)

Immanuel Kant was a real pissant
Who was very rarely stable.
Heidegger, Heidegger was a boozy beggar
Who could think you under the table.
David Hume could out-consume
Both Schopenhauer and Hegel,
And Wittgenstein was a beery swine
Who was just as schloshed as Schlegel.
There's nothing Nietzsche couldn't teach ya
'Bout the raising of the wrist.
Socrates himself was permanently pissed.

John Stuart Mill, of his own free will,
On half a pint of shandy was particularly ill.
Plato, they say, could pack it away
Half a crate of whiskey every day.
Aristotle, Aristotle was a bugger for the bottle,
Hobbes ...

“A serious and good philosophical work could be written consisting entirely of jokes.”

How true. I think the meaning of life was best summed up by the great philosopher, Chuckles the Clown:

A little song,
a little dance,
a little seltzer down your pants.

Wow, this is totally frickin' cool!

As there is nothing scheduled for Beijing, I would like to announce: I will host the Beijing 2007 International Philosophy Day. Contact me if you'll be there.

Everyone else: Do the same in your town! Spread philosophy!

Hasta la victoria, Siempre!

I am with you ouyangwulong.
And in this (as with few more) case, do not agree with Mr. Marx
