foxes tour diary pt 2

2/3/2005—l'esprit d'escalier

my visit to northwestern was fortunate enough to coincide with a talk given by randy barnett of boston university school of law who happened to be discussing a recent case he had argued in front of the supreme court. he told the crowd that, after making his oral arguments, he thought for weeks about what he should have said but didn't. the french have a word for it, he said—l'esprit d'escalier. the regret of afterthought and the consequent unending staircase tread.

while i understand that most of foxes' visitors keep coming back for his erudite prose, i realize that there is a select portion of my fans who mainly value the straight dish. in respect of those yahoos, i'll say this: my interviewer was not a beautiful woman, in fact she—was a man. we exchanged niceties. he asked me, "why northwestern?" and the ubiquitous, "why law?" unfortunately, i didn't prepare an answer to either question so he pulled down my pants and spanked me with a plastic toy shovel.

other questions were, "described a time you failed" and "how's my tie?" but then, out of nowhere, i ripped the interview from out of his clutches by describing my concussion in excruciatingly gory detail, after which i began asking myself questions that i then answered with questions.

somewhere near the end, i spaced out completely—mostly to think about the likelihood of a law school romance with an eight year age differential. in this sense, i appreciate experience in the same way as northwestern law. i like a girl that's been around the block.

-----

that evening i placed 5th in a chess tournament and didn't think about my interview at all. after all, there's no mental recursion when you don't really care. it's not so much about "getting it right" as it is "the epic, untenable, irrepairable consequences of wrong action" that usually stabs me in the gut. and when northwestern is somewhere around 65th on my list, it resides some place down after the spaghetti sauce and the artichoke dip. no, this time around, the only pangs in my gut resulted from the lack of foodstuffs.

i ate some deep dish and kept on whistling.
