It's always a sweet day when you find a box of your old tapes in the basement. I've been craving "the Doors" like a mad woman. "The Doors" were one of my favourite bands in high school and I have almost all their albums on tape (including two live concert import tapes that I got when I was in Chile.)

I was obsessed with "The Doors" for several years. I read all the bios, watched old concert footage, and of course, listened to the albums. I think I even had some of Jim Morrison's awful poetry books. I could probably sing along with almost all the albums. There's probably several folds in my brain dedicated to Doors lyrics.

Hopefully, this should make my day better, since I'm still working on a story that is giving me trouble. I want to finish the god-damn first draft.

you ever hear Bruce McCulloch (of the Kids in the Hall)'s piece "Doors Fan"? it's just so great

"You've gotta get Waiting for the Sun. It's their third album, but really, it's their first."

I will love you forever for saying Jim Morrison's poetry is awful. :) An old friend of mine (the one who dumped me out of her life this summer since she's joined the Jehovah's Witnesses) was OBSESSED (and still is) with Jim Morrison and thought his poetry was sublime. I thought it was crap.

thanks for your recent comments/insight (esp. on kerouac). much appreciated. i doubt i'll have time to deal with the buddism topic in the seminar but will definitely focus on the relationship between sal/dean and their individual view of the east/west. :)
