But remember when we used to have a limit of 24 and then you'd develop them and get doubles and keep the negatives? Ah, the good old days. :P And some people don't even print pictures. They just do digital scrapbooks and even those aren't always printed!

I really didn't. I'm picturing a very awkward scene from Bad Teacher now. Blllrrr.....<br /><br />I fear for libraries. The smell and personality of each one I visit. They are my last refuge against the onslaught of the digital age. I too love my Kindle and my .mp3 player, especially now that I'm travelling.

Nathan got me a kindle last year and I almost never use it because I just like the feel of a book in my hands...and I don't have time to read.

I love to look at them. I even love to smell them. Well, maybe not LOVE to smell them. But certainly enjoy. The smelling.

Nothing there unless you like Amish romance novels. I kid you not. They are a thing.<br /><br />I miss the sound of a scratchy record, especially old jazz recordings.

One of my favorite dates was going out to dinner and then browsing the book store. I could do it for hours. I like kindles for the sole reason of not enough space for books in our house, but other than that, I much prefer real books.
