Library

Posted on Tuesday 10 May 2005

This week is the final week of classes, and the begining of exam week. So, I have been spending a lot of time in the Library, so much time in fact, that I decided to make a post about it. I love old books, they have the coolest covers, smell historical, and really make you travel back in time. Why don’t they bind books the way they used to?

    like annie said, the gopher scene is pure gold! plus, great choice of books. everytime I’m in a library or bookstore I always find myself going back to my favorite books and just finding where my favorite passages are in each edition. I just can’t help myself.
    greatness as usual Josh!

    I LOVE YOU AND YOUR KITTY! I’m cool, cuz I talked to Josh in the communications building, but was so surprised when he knew my name that I was speechless. Did I already know Josh Leo???

    Great post Josh.

    Nice job Josh.. again! We don’t see enough videos from libraries. I’ll have to agree with the other comments, the gopher part at the beginning was great!

    another dandy, Josh!

    josh, this vlog post was so good that i decided to build a shrine to you in my living room. i cut out a few choice “photos” from your vlog. mostly they are of you in your various poses. i love watching you from arm’s length - that angle is the best. keep up the good work josh!

    I really liked all the images of books, but I hated that song - it seemed to trivialize it. I mean, are libraries only delightful for children? And, it sort of bugs me when people aestheticise (is that a word?) stuff for nostalgia or whatever reason - I mean, books are there to be read or whatever - anyway - that’s my comment.

    dear josh.

    if i was invisible then i could just watch you in your room.

    if hearts were unbreakable then i could just tell you where i stand.

    I loved the gopher scene and the soundtrack was awesome, I was bopping to the music while watching it.

    I remember having The Stinky CHeese Man on my shelf as a kid. [I think it’s still at home.]

    I loved those retold fairy tales.

    Thanks for the memories, Josh.

    :)
