Platonic Form? - A Car, Wooden Shoes, and Mary Lynn

Dutch Wooden Shoes

Saab 900

Mary Lynn Rajskub

Okay, remember the whole Plato's Cave bit from Philosophy 101? (No..... then click here.) In short, Plato maintained that abstract forms are the highest level of reality and transcend actual material things. Yes, Man created the Saab, and the wooden shoes, and unless you are a crass atheistic materialist like Richard Dawkins, God created Mary Lynn Rajskub. You could practically put four wheels on the wooden shoes, and they would definitely resemble a Saab. Yes, it may be a stretch to compare the form of a car and a shoe to the features of a woman's face, and yes female beauty takes many, many forms. But if there are abstract forms that lie behind what humans perceive as being aesthetically pleasing, then yes Mary Lynn Rajskub is as beautiful as a Saab 900. Oh, and BTW, thanks a lot GM for totally screwing over Saab.
