Comments on again
Hey, how long have comments here been closed? I hadn’t noticed. Anyways, they’re open again, should anyone feel inspired to comment.

They were off last weekend; I tried to comment on your post about “Things I crave” but failed… (I was just saying that I remembered a friend at McGill being really sick of chips during Passover).

I’ve been waiting for a chance to agree with you about independent bookstores.

You know, I do have email. *Someone* could have mentioned it to me.
Oh well. But I’m glad people agree with me about the independent bookstores. Even a single person.

But it’s sorta like if you have toilet paper stuck to your shoe (how does that get there anyway??) - if we all just keep quiet about it, nobody has to acknowledge any embarrassment. Besides, maybe you just wanted some ‘quiet time’.

That is the lamest excuse.
Generally, I believe people step on toilet paper which is on the ground, and it gets stuck to their shoes. I just like watching it flutter — I find it oddly compelling.

Well, I’ve been waiting to disagree with you about independent bookstores! Not only because I think the one I run is not like that, but also because at the chain stores I come in contact with (or used to) I would see no staff whatsoever until I made my way to the register.

Well, it seemed like a better excuse than “the dog ate my email.”
So do you purposefully strew toilet paper on the ground, hoping to attract an unwary foot?

I’ve been to a few nice *used* bookstores, but the independent ones here are snarly, surly, and also suffer from a total lack of selection. Of course, one could say that about the whole state…
(Was also tired of matzah. Two leftover boxes because, inexplicable, the pack of 5 was cheaper than 2 individual boxes. The economies of crazy religious holidays.)
