This one was on the back of a Honda mini-van. It was driven by a grandmotherly looking woman. Let’s guess her occupation or passion — librarian or teacher, or perhaps she just loves literature or books in general??? Another guess might be she into adult literacy programs.

Quote for the Day – Tom Waits

Tom_Waits_3“This is about all the bad days in the world. I used to have some little bad days, and I kept them in a little box. And one day, I threw them out into the yard. “Oh, it’s just a couple little innocent bad days.” Well, we had a big rain. I don’t know what it was growing in but I think we used to put eggshells out there and coffee grounds, too. Don’t plant your bad days. They grow into weeks. The weeks grow into months. Before you know it you got yourself a bad year. Take it from me. Choke those little bad days. Choke ’em down to nothin’. They’re your days. Choke ’em!”  ~ Tom Waits
