The breadcrumbs I’ve left behind are not children carrying on the family name, and it is not some mechanical invention, designed to revolutionize anything. I’ve passed through this life sprinkling words about. Not all of them spelled correctly, but the order in which they appear is of my choosing.
Not that it was ever important to me to leave anything behind at all. It is simply the residue of my hobby. Acceptable litter, if you will. My gibberish has wandered through a wide variety of topics, some more mainstream than others. None of the longevity of this blog is under my control. It could disappear at any moment. Other than this, there are the few books I have written. They will survive only as long as Amazon continues. Again, all of that is beyond my control. Consequently, only those copies already sold will remain as my footprints.
If I am to have a headstone, I
expect that other than my name, it will say – Not Sold in Stores

What I will be leaving behind is a whole lot of "stuff". I promised myself that after I have 8 trash bags of VHS movies to the library, I would not collect stuff like that again! HA! I have 4 bookcases of DVD movies now. No headstone for me, but if there were it would read, Great Movie Collector! Well, they are lighter than books.
