"Pleading the Phyth" John has opinions. Lots of opinions. On lots of subjects. "Pleading the Phyth" is his attempt to render them in literary fashion. Each installment brings something different. From politics to pop culture, football to front-page news, and everything in between, you never know what you might find in "Pleading the Phyth." But you can be sure it'll be slightly irreverent, moderately postmodern, and all John. "Pleading the Phyth" is updated as the mood strikes him. When he sees something that merits an essay, it ends up on the board. It could be once a week or once a month. It all depends upon the inspiration.
