The K.M. Merrill Memorial Library

This weekend I'm going to turn a white IKEA Expedit shelf (4x2) into the first version of the K.M. Merrill Memorial Library because if I wait until after I am dead then I won't get to pick any of the books, and it seems weird to have a your name engraved in a brass plaque above a collection of books that you didn't even pick out.

The first two books will be Salad Daze and Making Things See, both written by Urban Honking people. I come here to ask, what other books have you all made? (or people that aren't you, but are still within what one could argue is my "social circle".)

    Since you're not dead yet, can it be the "K.M. Merrill Commemorative Library"?

    It seems weird to want to remember you even though you're still around.

    Then again, I guess people can be forgotten while still alive so maybe it doesn't matter.

    I agree that "memorial" struck a creepy chord
    Commemorative is much more celebratory of the Man As He Is

    It's a MEMORIAL! Have some respect for dead!

    I'm going to a trophy shop to get the plaque made.

    1977 - 2127

    I feel like there should be some Make It Happen like slogan, but Make It Happen is weird for a dead guy. Maybe Made It Happen, or Made In The USA, or Making Things Happen In Heaven With Jesus, or...

    While I won't budge on the name, I'm looking for input on the slogan.

    Fug, now I gotta write that book...

    You should put Tom Blood's EXP in there.

    YoursTruly, I would love to send you a prawn zine, but I don't have one in my possession any more, for reasons that it would be imprudent to elaborate upon in this location.

    Why didn't I just keep one of them?!?!?!?!?!?!????
