Ahhh, the public library. Is there any better place in the world for a storyteller? These are just two of the 14 books and 5 DVDs we picked up at the downtown branch the other day. What happens is you go in for one or two things. Then you browse the graphic novels, the art books, the sheet music, the Faulkner. My god! At least we still have this place to distract us from the raging swirl of bullshit permeating our society today. Yes, libraries, yes! Save us with your socialist ideals: everyone should have access to books and music and films. Let us all read poetry to calm the fuck down.
