I have the best job in the whole damned world.
I spent a couple hours this morning opening up boxes full of Richard Hell's personal papers so we can start organizing them. One of the coolest things was a journal that Patti Smith gave Richard. We couldn't figure out whose handwriting is whose, but one of the first things in it is a dream about William S. Burroughs.
Then I ordered a bunch of punk stuff from a dealer in England--a signed copy of John Lydon's autobiography and assorted issues of obscure punk 'zines.
I love spending NYU's money on punk rock.
