Quote of the Day (Donald Fagen, on His ‘Geriatric’ Fans)
“Mike [McDonald], Boz [Scaggs] and I are pretty old now and so is
most of our audience. Tonight, though, the crowd looked so geriatric I was
tempted to start calling out bingo numbers. Nevertheless, by the end of the set
they were all on their feet, albeit shakily, rocking to Mike’s performance of
Buddy Miles’ “Them Changes.’ So this, now, is what I do: assisted living.”—Donald

I'm a librarian (no, NOT a "cybrarian" or "information scientist" or any of the other trendy terms the profession has come up with), as well as a freelance writer/researcher; my political leanings are contrarian, much to the dismay of friends on the left and right, and so I will give anyone looking for my vote exactly what they deserve -- the back of my hand
