A semantics blog for your consideration
Simon Charlow, a precocious and talented undergrad here at Brown, has a blog now. He’s already posting some neat stuff about binding in CCG, Anna Szabolcsi’s approach to reflexives and some interesting consequences of her approach.

“I like poop”?
Hehe, an inside joke of sorts. Simon and I were working out the semantics of control verbs in my office and covered the white board with a bunch of lambdas et al. At the end of it all, Simon decided that “I like poop” would be an appropriate last word on the whole matter.
:)
the joke was that we were doing “some good will hunting shit” and so i decided to be a true idiot savant–by adding the idiot part.
