Phew! Finally is the first word that comes to mind as I begin writing this post. I can’t believe that I finally completed the second volume of Karl Marx’s Capital. From the get go, I must say, Capital Volume II must be one of the most difficult books I’ve ever read, and that’s including some [...]

This evening I find myself through, what seems to be the longest chapter of my Marx Reading Challenge ever, Chapter 15: Effect of Circulation Time on the Magnitude of the Capital Advanced. I say this chapter felt like the longest, even though it was just short of being 40 pages long. This particular chapter just [...]

With the Caps losing game three this evening down in Tampa, I have officially come to the realization that my favorite hockey club’s season is more than likely over. With that being said, I will now have much more time to devote to my reading and to writing more posts on the blog, which have [...]

What a rather interesting April it was! I feel like I didn’t get a heck of a lot accomplished, either with reading or posting on the blog. It was quite a hectic April, all things being considered, more so than I expected. This month, it is my hope to get back on track with daily [...]
