Story of My Life
My Dad and I went to New York City twice after he was diagnosed with PSP. The last time, we got a room in nice hotel overlooking Central Park. Very expensive. We woke up after they stopped serving dinner. Since he was severely disabled, they let us eat leftovers from the continental breakfast in the lobby of the hotel. I was twenty seven years old, but it felt sort of like this.

The Name of the Father (Nom-du-Pere)
Exhibit B:
Palmer Park - Long Valley, NJ
The Name of Erik B. Anderson's Father

The Name-of-the-Father (Nom-du-Pere)
…the fundamental signifier which permits signification to proceed normally. This fundamental signifier both confers identity on the subject (it names him, positions him within the symbolic order) and signifies the Oedipal prohibition, the ‘no’ of the incest taboo. If this signifier is foreclosed (not included in the symbolic order), the result is PSYCHOSIS.

I am not psychotic!
