In the end, we self-perceiving, self-inventing, locked-in mirages are little miracles of self-reference. ”

I am a strange loop

Strange loops. That's a new one on me. Had to run it around the block a few. Revolutions. Then I passed the spot where Washington was crossing the Delaware. One of his aide de camps gets into the boat with him & Washington says to him "Don't let your balls swing over the side of the boat. You'll swamp us all." Strange loops indeed.
I ain't had breakfast yet.
