Myles DeckSure I could have had one Girl Guide cookie and
brought the box home, but... well...
Thing is I read this once and it stuck:
William Blake's "the road of excess leads to the palace of wisdom (okay I heard
it in
Bull Durham, but I would have rather read it).
There's a good chance I came across the
quote on a baseball film bender, or maybe
Susan Sarandon films or some such
quest. Because that's how gluttony works in my life - all or nothing. Food,
films and music. I get into these moods and want to explore either one whole
album
ad nauseam, or I take on an artist's or band's whole oeuvre and bore everyone
with "listen to this." Just today I passed along the two
Phoenix CDs to
R3 music
producer; I had exhausted them long ago. Now I can't stop listening to
My
Bloody Valentine's Loveless; I found it in a going-out-of-business record
store and kind of forgot about it. Until now.
