OFF: Philip Dick

[Drill]

Vangelis/VALIS...??? Definitely going to rent that movie next
time...Blockbuster now sells DVDs for the same price as rental.
Found "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep" (source of Blade Runner)
last time at the library but couldn't focus so I stashed the book
off-shelf for later ("please do not re-shelve books")... They are
using some kind of filing system where fiction is not alphebetized by
author. More into short stories lately but since the library has
"radio free albemuth" and "mind in motion: the fiction of PKD" I've
read these by now and they're quite good, expect the same for Do
Androids etc.
