This idea that books are exempt from the rules of hoarding, that you’re supposed to be happy that you have walls and walls lined with these things? I don’t actually feel that. I feel that if I had one of those book scanners or if there was a program, if Google had a book buy-back program where I could trade them every paper copy I have for a digital copy, I would do that in a heartbeat with almost every book in this house. I would love that. That would be the greatest thing that ever happened to me.

I am posting daily at my Instagram account as my wife and I continue an experiment in urban living without owning a car. So far so good. Denver turns out to have lots of transportation options that we are learning how to use efficiently. 

 

Music for my podcast is from an original Thelonius Monk composition named "Well, You Needn't." This version is "Ra-Monk" by Eval Manigat on the "Variations in Time: A Jazz Persepctive" CD by Public Transit Recording" CD.
