back in the days when I thought that, say, being a gypsy was kind of a neat way to live, or that houseboats were a fun idea. I've grown up since.
Um...I still think being a gypsy (assuming you mean it in the metaphorical sense) is a neat way to live and houseboats are a way cool idea. Mind you, in spite of really really missing our RV I am SO ready to settle down but I still loved living on the road and I frankly hope to do so again many years from now.
Does that mean I haven't actually grown up? :)
I love having all our music (almost) on mp3, but it is very nice to have a lot of it on CD or LP as well and yes, when the stupid frigging computers are down it's good to be able to play a CD. I'd NEVER give up real books for e-books. I like the idea of e-books. I love the idea that I could put an e-book on my palm pilot and NEVER be without something to read, but still, I cherish and treasure the real things.
And, of course there's another aspect to this that is close to all of us but you forgot to mention which is this: He sees a future in which all our entertainment needs will be provided through the house computer.
I certainly hope that my familie's entertainment needs will be provided around the piano sometimes or with guitars or...I hope that through quiet revolution I can encourage more and more people to create their own entertainment!
