George Whitman Is Dead and I Don't Feel So Good Myself

Yesterday marked the passing of George Whitman, owner of the Paris bookstore Shakespeare and Company.  The world has lost a treasure. I fear this passing is indicative of the passing of a generation, a lifestyle of print media. May we continue with our electronic books with wild abandon but remember those free markets that came before us.  NYTimes

Well, that was wildly dramatic.  Next I would like to preform a reading from my new play, "The World is Fucked and I Want a Condom." Who says I can't get deep?
