if ya believe in that sorta thing…
I went out last night even though I didn’t really feel like it…shoulda gone with my first instinct…watched my Musician “friends” play mostly the same songs they play every fuckin’ week…the “vibe” I got was one of solitude or aloofness or some shit like that…I was back home by 10pm instead of after Midnight…still managed to stay up until 2am…I’m reading a BOOK–remember those? I know the basic story–Booth Kills Lincoln, winds up dead…But like Ringo said, “ya learn from books…” and/or ya can be entertained by them…either one is good…
yesterday woulda been Roger Keith Barrett’s birthday…ya might know him better as “Syd”…what I know about Syd I learned from a book…specifically “A Saucer full of Secrets” by the late Nicholas Schaffner…not that I’m the biggest Pink Floyd fan, but still…I expect to see bookstores and/or books themselves disappear in my Lifetime; THAT’S sad to me…
so far today Life is OK…I hope to see some improvement by Lunchtime…
LATER THIS SAME DAY–improvement? yeah, I guess so…money in my pocket, got the laptop back…no concrete plans for tonight–yet…
Books will never die. They may, however, burn!

LOL Scribbler has a blog up now where the song on the blog speaks of just that….
So stinkin true,where has all the passion gone….?
I used to spend literally hours,whole afternoons foraging around second hand bookstores,of course Lemurs love to forage,but still I hear what your saying….
D.
Books will never disappear! We may have to re-market them under a new name to appeal to the younger crowd… the best I’ve heard is “Highly portable, low powered, hi-res media delivery system”…
excellent
