I discovered Alberto Manguel today morning.
The subject line is the title of one of his books.
When you search with that title in some search engine, more amazing titles come tumbling out.
Cheers!
morning boy's letters on serious matters and commentary on funny things aplenty

MBA = Master of Business Administration
After completing the MBA program, youngsters in India, when they bag some jobs, they get designations and titles like Management Trainee, Sales Executive, Customer Service Executive and such.
So after one studies business administration in such a way that one secures a ‘qualification’ and a certificate that reads Master of Funniness, one becomes a trainee or executive.
There’s nothing wrong really in becoming a trainee or executive. It starts somewhere. It’s the name of such education and certification that spins my head.
In Luhmann’s Love as Passion, the 2nd chapter carries this title:
Love as a Generalized Symbolic Medium of Communication
In my life I never thought I would be reading the expression LOVE amidst such words. But then it is Mr Luhmann and he can make it sound dry like this and yet ever intriguing all the same.
And then there are those who do their doctorates in sociology. Hello Mr Phd in Sociology, do you have Mr Luhmann’s felicity and mind to subject and address LOVE this way?
My tummy gets filled with these amazing titles I discover and my head spins and eyes kind of groffy (that sounds like a word, but isn’t yet official, I like the sound). Since yesterday evening, have had a slight disturbing ache too. When do I read all the things that hide behind those titles? And then there’s some bit of my own writing too.
What a title! THE MISMEASURE OF MAN. On some other day I would read it. But not at the moment. Only Luhmann right now.
Jorge Louis Borges, feel like swinging in his stories again.
Titular games truly peaking. Someone just announced himself as Chief Winning Officer.
