Everything I do is tied to something I have done; where is the start in<br />
thanking, and where is the end? In quick passing then, but with no less<br />
gratitude, thanks to the family, and especially to the hardworking female<br />
progenitor, also known as mother, <strong>who</strong> sacrificed so much in her life for mine.<br />
Likewise, all my love to my wonderful uncle George with all his hieroglyphs<br />
and mysteries <strong>of</strong> life. As they say in Vienna, we are made <strong>of</strong> the same wood.<br />
Red, Barb, Mel, Yuri, Eiko, Dinah, Kira <strong>–</strong> what’s in a pseudonym, after all? I<br />
hope I have done this as appropriately as I hoped for, and stayed fair to you. If<br />
not, you are certainly at liberty to tear this text apart; it is more your text than<br />
mine, if we are honest. I love you guys.<br />
My most sincere gratitude to Pr<strong>of</strong>essors Ciecko and Lopes, <strong>who</strong> allowed<br />
themselves to be jumped and dragged into this fiasco early on, and consented<br />
to be<strong>com</strong>e <strong>com</strong>mittee members. Both <strong>of</strong> your research areas are equally<br />
fascinating and captivating to me. It has been an honour.<br />
Pr<strong>of</strong>essor Roth: My advisor is the best. What more can I say? Nothing that can<br />
fit on a single page. Suffice to say, you taught me practice and gave it<br />
meaning <strong>–</strong> and that means the world to me.<br />
Pr<strong>of</strong>essor Lass: You opened the world, showed me theory and discourse,<br />
translated it for me, when I did not understand a single word…and then<br />
proceeded to kick my tuchas until I understood it was for sitting, not thinking.<br />
There is no way at all to thank you enough, and certainly not on the<br />
acknowledgment page <strong>of</strong> a crumby old bachelor’s thesis. I will try harder, so<br />
that I can see you and Joshua soon again.<br />
Merrill House is a beautiful little house right next to the Thirsty Mind<br />
c<strong>of</strong>feeshop. Go visit there and say hi to the wonderful people <strong>of</strong> the most<br />
warm-hearted department on campus. I promise you will love every single one<br />
<strong>of</strong> them.<br />
