Frazz by Jef Mallett for February 01, 2015
Transcript:
Mrs. Olsen: You were assigned to spend an hour writing an essay, Caulfield. Caulfield: I did. I wrote it during the football game. For accuracy's sake, I wrote only while actual football action was taking place. I understand the super bowl is a very big deal, so I'm not about to question their timekeeping. Mrs. Olsen: This looks like no more than five minutes' worth. Caulfield: What's even weirder is that it took most of the evening. Frazz: How'd that go? Caulfield: She gave me an "A", but it's only redeemable in a college course in relativity.
Squizzums: Now that is weird. I have no idea who Frank Kermode is (too late to look it up), but remember kairos and chronos not just from seminary in the 1950s, but from the many times it has come up since.
