A colleague pointed me to this obituary for Gerald Myers, who held what sounds like a delightful post: Philosopher in Residence at the American Dance Festival. Sounds like a sweet gig. This got me thinking about some other creative possibilities I could imagine taking up with joy:
- Philosopher in Residence at the Franciscan Winery
- Philosopher in Residence at the Culinary Institute of America
- Philosopher in Residence at the Paris Review
- Philosopher in Residence at the Biltmore Estate
But if I’m honest with myself, given my class and station in life, it’s more likely I’d be appointed:
- Philosopher in Residence at Talladega Superspeedway
