MAKE ‘EM LAUGH SOME MORE
PBS is running a great six-episode series on the past 100 years of American comedy called MAKE ‘EM LAUGH. I did these two mind maps on the fly during the second two episodes on wiseguys and satire/parody.
Looking back over the four maps, it strikes me how many times I wrote down the word “truth.” Comedy tells the truth.
You can see my maps of the previous two episodes here.
If you want to link to all four drawings, use this link:

SURRENDER TO THE GIANT
This one was cut from the book. I fit it back in!
Although we human beings have our own personal life, we are yet in large measure the representatives, the victims and promoters of a collective spirit whose years are counted in centuries. We can well think all our lives long that we are following our own noses, and may never discover that we are, for the most part, supernumeraries on the stage of the world theater.—Carl Jung, Memories, Dreams, and Reflections
