I'm studying on the fifth floor of the HBLL, on the northeast side next to the Fine Arts section. I'm minding my own business, being productive and writing a few papers and these two books are staring at me. Its a penetrating stare. Representative Painters of the XIX Century, published in 1899, and Dictionaire Historiqu Des Peintres, published in 1866. I want to take them off the shelf and rustle through there pages, and handle something that old. How exciting! Its a very enticing proposition. That's the biggest distraction I'm facing right now. Chris Koontz just found a book printed in 1806....We need to find a new place to study.

I'm sitting in American Heritage rading a blog called "Toffler's Adhocracy" and thinking to myself, "it's a sad thing when getting an education gets in the way of learning." (Tell me that doesn't fold in on itself like a military mattress.)
I say, read up Todd. Whatever you want.
