Sounds bright.  How do you store the albums? On end, or flat? & how to store
100+ & not damage the vinyl by its liquid nature (it'll flow down if on end too
long, making a bulging bottom)

This was a curse to me -- I'd pick up a book that looked good, & half a
paragraph in I know the whole story toomuc to reread. That's gone now & I've
happily reread a couple of old favourites. . .ahh, age. . .

Things I like tend to find residence in my sketchy memory banks.

I have much stored in there, but the retrieval system sucks badly.

Oh, some times, if I can get in the right frame of mind, I can kick butt at
trivia for an hour or two.  I had a nice coup in Jeopardy the other night -
beat Matt on a few questions, & I answered the Final Jeopardy before they
showed the question. (they showed the category & I parsed that & my
recollection of how Jeopardy chooses questions); & that & $5 will get me a cup
of coffee, I know. . .

Your friend,
