It's cool to be able

It's cool to be able to hop on the 7 bus outside the front door and get off right on Telegraph. Get off right in front of Unit 3, which is coming to life once again. The street was filled with students, many with family in tow (much Chinese spoken in this case). AC Transit buses use computer-printed transfers now, so you get 2.5 hours on your transfer and no m�s. That only gave me enough time to scour about a third of the clearance racks at Amoeba. Still gave me enough time to buy 6 get 2 free, although no real revelations among the bunch. Mostly one-hit wonders and washed up pop albums. One of these days I'll pick up the entire Hootie discography. Need to expose myself to more mediocre yet slightly cool bands so my subconscious can stay my hand as I flip through the pile. Did pick up a Paul van Dyck out of the non-clearance used section. Could've got it for less on Amazon. Oh well.
