Special Random Notes about Souvenirs
by Jean-Thomas Cullen
Ideally, traditionally, we travel someplace and, to remember how thrilling it was, we buy a keepsake to always remind us. Usually, it's a pretty little thing of some sort to be displayed on a shelf of memories, photos, and treasures in our livingroom. Or it may consist of a little stash of presents for our friends and loved ones, to share the glow as we tell stories (and gush about how happy we are to be home again). That's still the time-honored way to do it, and far be it from me to suggest any changes. But the world has changed, and I want to offer a few observations for what it's worth. This went from a few random notes to something of an essay, so now I'm breaking into separate pages with a table of contents for you.
