Here are some videos on the definitions of the word "philosophy" that we discussed in class. First, the Bobby Brown definition: Nothing says "philosophy as a worldview" like 1988 Bobby Brown.


Bobby Brown - My Prerogative

Now for the 3-year-old definition. Here's comedian Louis CK's take on the broad, fundamental questions kids ask (the routine starts 2:40 into the video).

Louis CK - Why?

I couldn't find a video on doing philosophy. If you know of one, let us know as a comment to this post.

I can't believe that song is 20 years old!! I remember when it came out!

...I think I'll make this anonymous so I can continue to blend in w/ my 20 something classmates ;-)

Someone could be in her or his twenties and still remember this song! Someone... LIKE ME!!!!

Although in fairness, a few of your fellow classmates are still teenagers. :-)
