bookends
i used to have a pretty nice spine but i neglected to give it a name so each time i tried to straighten it i couldn't get its attention
For the past decade I’ve worked as a projectionist at the same movie theatre, with the same eighteen 35mm projectors and tomorrow they will all be gone, replaced by digital projectors. We’ve been through the good times and the bad times together and now I will never see them again. I admit its a bit sentimental to get all worked up about a these heaps of metal and wire but whatever, life is like that sometimes. When I was being trained by this old projection guru “Mr. A” ,who had been working projection for the past forty years, he said whenever he would shut down the booth at the end of the night he would say to the projectors “goodnight ladies, I’ll see you tomorrow”. So tonight I say a final “good night ladies, thanks for the pictures”.
Cheers.
