Ah. P.K. Dick. Have you read any of his other stuff?

Wait for somebody to turn it into a movie. Other movies based on P.K. Dick's work include, Blade Runner, Total Recall and Minority Report... all titles I include in my list of best movies, but like you...I can't really follow that guys books to save my life! I just ask my oldest son what they're about, because he owns everything by P.K., and he understands them.

Reality is that which, when you stop believing in it, doesn't go away.

I have read Minority Report. I am aging, I didn't put the connection together. I have never seen bladerunner as I am saving it for later in life. I do wierd things like that. I just listened to disc 2 of Led Zep physical Graffiti a few months ago for the first time. I waited 30 years for it and boy it was worth the wait.

I'm waiting for the animated version. Movies are way too high brow.

WHAT? There's a second disc for Physical Graffit?!! Time for me to rifle through my youngest son's CD collection -- I borrowed it once to copy a song onto my iPod...I thought there was only one disc.
When it comes to era-oriented things, I'm a mess, really. I didn't get any of the music for "my" generation (70's Rock) because my emotional development was arrested, and I was enmesh with icky teenybop things due to the strangle hold my parents had on me, determined to keep me a "good" girl forever -- I didn't get into the 80's until the late 90s because during the 80s my husband had a strangle hold on me, determined to keep me a "good, Biblical, wife" and would only let me listen to Christian music. So now I listen to all kinds of stuff, old and new, to make up for lost time, and to make sure I don't turn into one of those people who get stuck at a certain era.

I do that too Craig...I often stop watching a tv show and just let the episodes pile up...then have a marathon and watch them all in a row.
Easier to follow and takes less time...no commercials.

I have never seen bladerunner
I kinda look at it like wine or scotch. I'm just waiting for the right time. Eventually someone that ran out of ideas will redo it. That's when I'll watch the original. I did it with The day the Earth Stood Still.

I saw him live twice last year. He's gotten too political. I don't care to see him again but I'll keep listening to the music. 
I always seem to go back to Zep no matter how old I get.
