Possible Paper Articles

  1. Down With Facebook!: it's soooo lame
  2. Do Fish Feel Pain?: "it's a tricky issue, so I'll go with my gut"
  3. In the Basement of the Ivory Tower: are some people just not meant for college?
  4. Study Says Social Conservatives Are Dumb: but that doesn't mean they're wrong
  5. A New Argument Against Gay Marriage: hetero marriage is unique & indispensable

  6. You Don't Deserve Your Salary: no one does
  7. The Financial Crisis Killed Libertarianism: if it wasn't dead to begin with
  8. How'd Economists Get It So Wrong?: Krugman says the least wrong was Keynes
  9. An Open Letter to Krugman: get to know your field
  10. Consider the Lobster: David Foster Wallace ponders animal ethics
  11. Are Dolphins People?: an ocean full of sea-people
  12. The Dark Art of Interrogation: Bowden says torture is necessary
  13. The Idle Life is Worth Living: in praise of laziness
  14. Should I Become a Professional Philosopher?: maybe not
  15. Blackburn Defends Philosophy: it beats being employed
