Yesterday I said that bookmobiles are an instant reblog. Today, I learned that rule also applies to book donkeys.

Peter, Paul, and Mary - “The times they are a’changin’”
Come senators, congressmen
Please heed the call
Don’t stand in the doorway
Don’t block up the hall
For he that gets hurt
Will be he who has stalled
There’s a battle outside
And it is ragin’
It’ll soon shake your windows
And rattle your walls
For the times they are a-changin’.
Also I saw Opeth/Katatonia last night and it was AWESOME.
I have the torso of someone who’s 5’9” and the legs of someone who’s 4’11”.

Academic Secrets-
By chance you come across an academic journal article online that needs to be paid for (something like $25-$40), lots of times you can take the authors name from the article, google them for their email, and ask if they can send you their article b/c you’re interested in their work. More often than not, they’ll say ‘cool’ and send it as an attachment.
Heads up!
I haven’t tried this personally, but from what I know of academics, I bet it works more often than not.
Useful information.
