And after the storm, I went down to basement. And everything was floating. Lots of my old keyboards. Thirty projectors. Props from old performances. A fibreglass plane. A motorcycle. Countless papers, and books. And I looked at them floating there on the shiny dark water. Dissolving. All the things I'd carefully saved all my life – becoming nothing but junk

And I thought: 'How beautiful. How magic. And how... catastrophic.'

I *almost* lost all my possessions (including records) in the storm that happened in...what year? Summer, 2004 maybe? We were living in a tiny place with no room for my stuff, so it was all in the basement, except for some of my clothes. We moved to a bigger (third floor) place a couple weeks before the storm, and that Hoboken basement flooded up to the ceiling.

@Paddy: tell them whatever you want, but most likely the renter's or homeowner's policy specifically excludes flood damage as a covered event. Suuuucks.
@Brian: parts of Newark received 10 inches, but I think the official city-wide mark was ~8.5" (highest one-day total in city history going back to the 1880s). Large swaths of the east ward are essentially reclaimed swamp, so not good. Not sure about Scott's neck of the woods.
@Miss G: that's somewhat like how I view my bookcases. I sit back and scan the spines staring out from the shelves, remembering where and when I read them, who gave them to me, etc. It's experienced all at once in a glance.

I lost my copy of that Throbbing Gristle (and all my other TG) in my dad's shop fire 25 years ago. Never got around to replacing them. They were the US CD versions, purchased at the Tower Records cutout store on Lafayette.

I was a woodworker in my dad's boat shop. We played his jazz when he was there. I played other stuff when he wasn't there.
