I read recently that people used to read literature for the beauty of the written word. Now they read it to be entertained. Can we not have both?

Love the quotes.

Oh yeah, Neil.

FD, I was 16 in '81. And very cute.

Great quote, Hoss. Are you a Prachett fan?

Yeah, Autumn, I would have been babysitting you in 81. Bet you were a cutie then too!

Started the journal in '81? Why in the world would a 3rd grader be quoting Kierkegaard? I didn't even know who that was until college! LOL

Sorry I'll miss the meeting; I'll be at the Candidates Forum @ The Renaissance.

"If not for blogging what would an Insomniac do?"

I adore quotes, and I imagine had I been you know, able to write in 1981, rather then learning to hold my head up, I would have had a journal then too.

Thank you for sharing.

Thanks, Greg, for the Zappa, man.

Yeah, Vicki, I was looking at the full and exquisite moon last night as well. I love the high romantic naturalism of Martin Eden--most people have read other London, but not many have read ME--my fav.

Lu, Yeats is my favorite poet of all time. It's amazing how relevant his poems are, even and especially now.

Thanks, y'all.
