Consumerism: While waiting for one $75 book to come out, I found out that another $75 book is back in print! These are the kind of choices I don't want to have at the moment...

Clearly, this is the will of our Lord manifesting itself to keep you from spending $75 on filthy, filthy art-porn.

But Partch was a hom'sekshul who made devil music!

Maybe I'll just get drunk and buy both. Now I need to find something expensive to get drunk on...

Try dobbs' couch, it looks pretty pricey.

Interlibrary loan is your friend.

Yeah, I actually put in my preorder when it was down to $45.

Interlibrary loan is your friend.

And is frequently utilized. But some books just need to be owned. And I waited too long on the first printing of the Partch book and would hate to miss my chance again. But I also have a lot of "real" expenses right now too. Phooey.
