You will
Location: my usual black chair
Mood: groggy
Music: a year? In daylights, in sunsets, in midnights, in cups of coffee
Me: You mean you watch the whole thing? Y'don't just fast forward to the action?
Him: No, I want to hear the plot.
Me: Plot?! There's no plot; it's always something like: guy shows up to deliver pizza, girl steps outta the shower, and oh, she has no money to pay him. What to do? What to do? Oh my! I've appeared to drop my towel...
Him: (laughing) I still like to see what happens.
Me: Y'know what happens - nuthin that ever happens in real life, that's what happens. Grand thespians, they're assuredly not.
Been looking at a buncha ebook readers lately for myself.
In NYC, the average rent is $30-35 per square foot per year. A bookshelf takes up about a three square feet of space. I would need three for alla the books I got. That's a nine square foot footprint, or $270-$315 a year for rent just to keep my books.
Ergo, ebook reader.
The issue is that alla the screens're too small. Don't wanna have to get surgery on my eyes to repair them to save $270-$315; that makes no sense. The Kindle DX has a huge screen but no way to zoom; the iRex reader has a huge screen and zoom but's crazy expensive and dim.
So, looks like I gotta wait.
Hate waiting for the future to come. According to television, we were supposta all get jet cars by now.
And television never lies.
