The Twilight Zone
Submitted by shorpy_is_cool on Tue, 02/26/2008 - 11:55pm.
This picture totally reminded me of "The Twilight Zone." The episode with the man that loves to read, and there was some attack, which he was the only survivor of. He discovers all the library books scattered everywhere, and he loves it because now he has the time to read, and all these wonderful books. But then, his glasses break on steps that look like these. I thought it was horrible.
