Paul sent me the site of whimsical reading photos by Joel Robinson. They are quite funny and nostalgic, as the golden age of book technology is disappearing. Books have increasingly become art objects and materials.

Losing Neighbors in April
We have been hit left and right with the pestering economic downturn in our quiet neighborhood: losing two neighbors at the beginning of April. On the left, Todd lost his beautiful house and tropical gardens after nearly 15 years' investment as a result of bad partnership; and on the right Peanut and his family were looking Midwestward for their possible offer on a house. He could not sustain anymore his increasing health insurance with decreasing paycheck, his wife' job loss and high house rent.
When Gary down the road had his million-dollar house foreclosured, we were deeply disturbed. But this time, we are distraught and saddened to have lost two great neighbors. Life will go on, but will not be the same. We will miss their neighborly generosity and gossip, fun parties and friendship.
