From the Proprietor:
Eric is a singer/songwriter/appreciator of the written word.
Eric and I have a similar affection for Buechner’s writing–as a matter of fact, of the millions of people listing their libraries on LibraryThing.com, Eric and I share the most books in common.

The nurse behind the sliding glass window handed me the clipboard with the dreaded New Patient Paperwork, and then the thing happened that made me want to write this.
The questions began. “Do you have any allergies?” “Do you drink caffeine?” “Do you use tobacco?” “If so, how often?” “Do you exercise regularly?” “Is there a history of heart disease in your family?” “Have you had any surgeries?
