I want to know, any and everything, that's my goal in life but at this point in time the eyes have it. The eyes, bless them, that cause me to wile away each day and night with pictures and text that I hope will enlighten me to what is and has gone on in the world and increasingly through a pair of glasses. In most ways what is, isn't all that thrilling, as Soloman stated, "There is nothing new under the sun" well maybe except for the next couple weeks that will see history brighten up a bit. Anyway, I love the history of mankind, alien kind, earth kind etc. so I read a book at least once a month which I find these days are costing what I used to pay for a weeks groceries! Good grief Charlie Brown, $30 bucks for a book? Maybe I used the book section in the Goodwill too much to know what they really cost but I saw The Kindle and fell in love!!
Yes the Kindle is expensive but it's the best thing I could find to spend my Government money on. Ok, the incentive check Bush sent me to invigorate the economy. So in reality its free and 12 books a yeat at $30 is $360 so that takes care of the Kindle plus Oprah got us $50 bucks off. The Kindle was cheaper in the end for me. Now I can read and download without the PC which where I live will be a feat comprable to Jason and the Argonauts quest. And the weight of carrying around one of those hardback books and highlighter is totally unnecessary now. So off to Kindle land and years of books that will make me the best informed person in my house.
So I live alone, so what?
