Mind's Eye Re: Gatsby

Am not much of a movie fan- seemed like a vicarious experience. Real
life was replete.//My reading follows a more traditional course of the
classics though some were modern in the sense they were graphic. Read
a lot of Kierkegaard in a humanites course and honestly, he put me to
sleep but so did Henry James and a linguistics course. O well...

My garage roof has turned into a mini-disaster.Family plans have run
amok. etc.
