  • Remember Death
    UNP Remember Death Let us disarm him of his novelty and strangeness, let us converse and be familiar with him, and have nothing so frequent in our thoughts as death. Upon all occasions represent him to our imagination in his every shape; at the stumbling of a horse, at the falling of a tile, at the least prick with a pin. Let us evermore, amidst our jollity and feasting, set the remembrance of our frail condition before our eyes, never suff ering ourselves to be so far transported with our delights, but that we have some intervals of refl ecting upon, and considering how many several ways this jollity of ours tends to death, and with how many dangers it threatens it. Where death waits for us is uncertain; let us look for him everywhere. Th e premeditation of death is the premeditation of liberty. montaigne “Th at to Philosophize Is to Learn to Die” mr. lamb, rush, vocabulary My eleventh-grade Language Arts teacher, Mr. Lamb, was a Deadhead (former or ongoing, I do not know, nor could I divine the depth of his deadication), so he encouraged my vocal annotations beside many of our class vocabulary words. “Rush word!” I would call out (in my more exclamatory days) © 2010 by the Board of Regents of the University of Nebraska NOT FOR RESALE OR REDISTRIBUTION when we happened across panacea or somnolent or unobtrusive or, it seems, hundreds of others that I had learned through listening — If I may briefl y break stride, I must admit my UNPconsterna- tion to live in a world where my habitual mentions of Rush inevitably bring the question “Rush Limbaugh?” Would that I could declare, once and for all, a resounding no.

If you’re wondering what that means, join the crowd. “Squadala? What’s that?” I’ve been asked this many times this year, and I’ve never have a very good answer. Some words go beyond definition. And some experiences are beyond words. The “real” answer is that Squadala is a word taken from some weird cartoon thing that I’d never heard of. You can find it online. A wizard is sitting on a flying carpet with his ridiculously long beard saying, “Squadala! Squadala!” Is it gibberish? Maybe. Is it a magic incantation? Who knows. And who knows how we decided to name our class that. But we did, and--strangely--it works. We have spent a year writing all sorts of crazy things, less concerned for the “quality” and more concerned with the mere fact that we’re writing, creating, bringing into the world something that wasn’t there before. At our worst we’ve been writing gibberish, and that’s alright. At our best, though, we’ve turned words into magic. The book you have in your hands contains some our our better efforts.
