Anyway - I am in love with Dublin today.
Luke and I went to Trinity University to see the Book of Kells - which is the four gospels writen and decorated in the 6th or 7th centry. The book itself was really neat - but the most neatestest part was the "Long Room" - which is this massive 'long' room with thousands of really old books and marble busts lining the wall.
I would vist there often but for the eight euro they charge to get in. I had warm memories of attending college where students were granted privliges to buildings after hours - and thought maybe I would study old books at Trinty University just so I would be allowed on such sacred ground after hours. It makes me think of ghosts. Students of past years how their labor over working/playing on sacred school grounds seeps into the walls and creates 'ghosts' for present students to graple with. Anyone who studied theatre at NWC knows exactly what I am talking about.
Anyway - it's near five and I'm starving - so my love of this computer is dwindling.

I don't know you - I was searching for pics of the Long Room, ran across your blog, and saw the quote (Empire Records). Sometimes I celebrate Rex Manning Day, just because. Goodness, that's a great movie.
