because those who mind don’t matter
and those who matter don’t mind.

Wonder and skepticism

Not only could nobody tell me, but nobody even had the sense that it was an interesting question. They looked at me funny. I asked my parents; I asked my parents’ friends; I asked other adults. None of them knew. My mother said to me, “Look, we’ve just got you a library card. Take it, get on the streetcar, go to the New Utrecht branch of the New York Public Library, get out a book and find the answer.”

Over me. Over you. Over everybody.
Too much information /
Runnin’ through my brain.
