A horse walks into a bar and orders a beer. The bartender says, “You’re in here every day. You might be an alcoholic”. The horse says, “I don’t think I am,” and disappears. It’s a joke about Descartes, but you don’t want to put him before the horse.
(An adaptation of a joke I found on the Reddits)
Gerlach is German and rhymes with bear-lock. I was born and raised in the Haight Ashbury of San Francisco, moved to Berkeley for college and grad school, with an MA in History of Religion from the Graduate Theological Union of Berkeley, and now teach Philosophy and the history of human thought at Berkeley City College. I have taught Intro Philosophy, Ethics, Logic, Asian Philosophy, Greek Philosophy, Modern European Philosophy and Social & Political Philosophy there for the past several years, and it has been a joy.
