2. In a famous passage, Zhuangzi uses the example of dreaming to illustrate how knowledge depends on one's perspective. Briefly explain how he does so, and relate the epistemology Zhuangzi seems to be suggesting with the epistemology Plato develops in his cave allegory. How is Zhuangzi's version different?

For Zhuangzi, knowledge is relative to the perspectives we have of reality at the moment. This means that we will never know for sure whether what we know at the moment is real or not. It depends on our perspective. He explains this by showing how one day he dreamed that he was a butterfly, at the moment the dream is happening, his knowledge was limited to the butterfly's perspective, when he woke up, he realized that that perspective was not real, because now he had knowledge with his own perspective, however he could not confirm if they were real too, because he could be a butterfly, dreaming that he was a man, at that moment.

With that, Zhuangzi makes a connection with the myth of Plato's cave, showing that our perceptions and the feelings we feel about the environment in which we are inserted are not enough to make us sure of anything.

PRANK'S FROM THE GOVERNOR'S MANSION Pranks are not limited to the young, but rather to the young at heart. In following tradition among the outgoing governors of Virginia, Tim Kaine, Tim Kaine pranked his incoming successor in a uniquely humorous fashion. While giving the official tour to the new governor’s family that would reside in the mansion, Kaine mentioned that it was haunted by a resident ghost that dwelled on its grounds. Before moving out of the mansion, outgoing governor Kaine placed burner phones within hard to find places around the mansion. The phones had ghost-like sounds recorded as ringtones that became progressively louder as they rang. As a part of the prank, Kaine would call at random hours, often at night, to the different phones that had been strategically hidden in the walls and on top of elevators throughout the mansion. “It was a great little trick and it had us spooked for a couple of days before we found the cell phones,” said incoming Governor McDonnell. This kind of prank was not the first and probably will not be the last among governors. Other pranks among governors include leaving life-size cardboard cut out of the former governor in the shower, an alarm clock set for 3:00 AM left in the bedroom, and a stuffed real bear left in the governor’s private bathroom. No one ever expects a prank the day after Halloween that’s what made it an even better idea. My brother Brian and I have had a running your turn my turn prank history ever since we learned about pranks from our very own parents. Since the last one was on me (a plastic roach on my pillow one morning), I knew my next idea had to be even more horrific. Here is the plan: I will wait behind the shower curtain in the morning before his arrival into the restroom. Once he stands half-asleep in front of the mirror, I will jump out, mask, and all, with arms, outstretched and yell “ Ahhhhh !” Everything is ready to go now. The plan execution had to be perfect. The waiting began. I hear his cell alarm go off followed by a few minutes pause. Then came the shuffling of his feet coming toward the restroom as he suddenly flicks on the lights. I noiselessly take a deep breath and hold the edge of the curtain ready to make my abrupt and chilling appearance. This will be the best prank remembered for a long time to come. ___________________________________________________________________ THE BEST PRANK EVER No one ever expects a prank the day after Halloween that’s what made it an even better idea.
