Heidegger

Cologne 30-Sep-2007
- Nurse, what’s the latest on Mr Evans’ condition?
- I wheeled him into the sun for half an hour, as you told me to do. But
the light seems to have affected his mind. And his obsession with his
addle and suchlike has worsened
- Would you say, this is a coprophilic mind on the slipway […]

Hi Michael:
Funny that we were discussing the Ontological *fun-language* or Heidy-speak.
A German book supplier with whom I have dealt with in the past sent news of
a new book on Heidegger [in German] of which the whole raison denture is to
take the piss out of Heidegger’s weird way of torturing […]

Abstractions are abstractions in that they are merely an existential mode of
the abstractor. (See below for context .)

So abstractions “are merely an existential mode of the abstractor”

Breakfast.
My job to make the breakfast this morning. We’ve been away on an overnight
stay in the Lake District. Horror of horrors the fridge is empty. I stare at
the empty interior uncomprehendingly – I’m still half asleep. I think of
Heidegger’s notorious “Das Nichts nichtet” ‘nothingness nothings,’ a gnomic
remark somewhat […]

at the tree: presence, better — presencing…
