Welcome to my commonplace blog

The goal of this blog is to preserve a few ideas and quotes from books I read. In the old days when books were not so readily available, people kept "commonplace books" where they copied choice passages they wanted to be able to remember and perhaps reuse. The idea got picked up by V.F.D. and it's common knowledge that most of that organization's volunteers have kept commonplace books, and so have Laura and I.

I'm sure there are many other Internet sites and blogs dedicated to the same idea. But this one is mine. Feel free to look around and leave comments, but not spam.

The Book of Craw: A Hobo's Testament (Companion Volume to "The Dirty Parts of the Bible") (Sam Torode)

Not much to say about this one. I got it from the author for free, which was nice. It's a collection of poems (some original) that might have inspired one of the characters of the book The Dirty Parts of the Bible.
