IMMENRItgrffM 7'T, SIC MUSIC MUSIC MUSIC MUSIC MUSIC Once---A long time ago---about three months age---I enjoyed the interesting, but wallet killing, pastimes of discology and hi fidelititus. I c'elleected, bought, 'acied, and stole records. I lived and tithed for sound and music. I thought it was the very essence of life. MY collection of ultra—hi—fi African bird calls was unequaled in North—Eastern Pennsylvania. I had the only recording in existence of a student (unidentified) beating his brains out on the steps of ad Main after flunking three blue books in as many hours.

V 7. recently obscrtred, at the end of a lecture, this place is like a gym after a basketball game. Now, to top the heap, did you ever Verdi, or Wagner, or Mozart, or (God Forbid) Beethovan at 8:45 in the morning. There isn't any better way to spend an evening than with these follows and a girl (They don't crowd a guy's style one bit).

That's like drinking scotch at 8:45 in the morning. I don't have anything against scotch.
