Those pivotal moments...

I'd known Mike for about six months when I found myself in his bedroom. It was a crap pile. Stacks of Sight & Sound at the end of his bed. A desk littered with sketches, modelling clay and craft knives. Some mix tape laid on its side, with his clearly indentifiable scrawl all over it (Mike was a lover of Fineliners; his resultant style was somewhat inkblottyreminiscent of Ralph Steadman). He showed me his books. Several of them were protected within polybags. If I'm not mistaken they were filed alphabetically. There was a lot of Terry Pratchett. There was some shit about JFK. Possibly a little volume about Elvis (the memory kinda fades in some areas). There was Douglas Coupland's Generation X: Tales For An Accelerated Culture.

Lessness: A philosophy whereby one reconciles oneself with diminishing expections of material wealth.

Legislated Nostalgia: To force a body of people to have memories they do not actually possess.

Overboarding:
Overcompensating for fears about the future by plunging headlong into a job or lifestyle seemingly unrelated to one's previous life interests.

This book was talking to me.

Mike placed the Coup' in a polybag and let me leave the house with it. It's not something, I gathered, that he did very often - hence the over-protective anality of the polybags. But I am eternally grateful for that moment in time, that fine gesture. He got the book back and I went on a never-ending journey.
