Setting The Mood

Waiting to see and hear Tom Waits on Conan.

Sipping quietly with a manifesting purpose from a bottle of Kendall-Jackson Merlot (not pictured).

Factotum, starring Matt Dillon and based on Charles Bukowski's book of the same name, is next.

I dedicate the night to that long gone bookstore that I walked into on Nashville's 2nd Avenue some seventeen years ago. I browsed and I picked up "Women" by Bukowski. I had never heard of him, but I liked the title and I liked the artwork on the cover. Sometimes judging a book by its cover works out nicely. I now have shelves of books by him. Black Sparrow Press is represented well in my home.

Goosebumps. Tom is on.
