https://davidpolson.wordpress.com/2010/07/18/why-i-love-books
Just another WordPress.com weblog. About the Name, and the Man Behind It. Why I Love Books. July 18, 2010. My bookcase is about ten feet tall, with eight shelves. Every shelf is full, and I have more books piled on top of the bookcase and in layers on the bottom shelf. I have more books on my nightstand, a rotating litany of genres, and another row on my desk shelf. And that is why I love books. One Response to “Why I Love Books”. August 9, 2010 at 2:49 PM. I love your nerdiness! Enter your comment here.

College and Me: A Deep-Sea Thinker in a Social Reef | Contemplatin' Man
https://davidpolson.wordpress.com/2011/02/25/college-and-me-a-deep-sea-thinker-in-a-social-reef
Just another WordPress.com weblog. About the Name, and the Man Behind It. College and Me: A Deep-Sea Thinker in a Social Reef. February 25, 2011. My thought: if life is an ocean. Then these college kids are reef fish sporting in the shallows, and I am some grotesque thing gliding through the sunless depths. Our motivations are different, as well as our behaviors and ideas. And there is an enormous gulf between. No wonder I never get invited to their parties. That gulf got in the way. But other times,...

The tall thin blue collection in the back are blue elf aloe. There’s a third, smaller flower stalk in there, if you can see it. That stalk rising to the top of the image is already a foot tall.

Just another WordPress.com weblog. About the Name, and the Man Behind It. September 10, 2010. But this year, I am arranging things differently. The evening’s entertainment will fit the season, and because I have so much to consume, I’m celebrating Halloween on September 15th and continuing into November for as long as I can take it, until my brain turns into jelly. Last year was a real freshman effort: I read Penguin Classics’. Every night in October, and queued up only horror movies on Netflix. I sprink...
