Let me get one thing out before we continue on. I posted a fitting answer to FB’s What’s on your mind? question through a J.D. Salinger quote on my Facebook status last January 26, 2010.

Would you like to know what I honestly think? Would you? – Franny and Zooey by J.D. Salinger

I’m still halfway in finishing his short story “Franny and Zooey.”

Be it coincidence or whatever, finding out about his death (last January 27, 2010) today weirded out the order of things.

Moving on.

Jerome David “J. D.” Salinger lived a long life at 91. He is the author of the only novel that I read numerous times – “Catcher in the Rye.” And I also owned several copies of it – three(3) to be exact. If you go see my profile in Facebook, Myspace and Friendster, you’ll see that it’s always been there as my favorite book.

My utmost gratitude to you for authoring the only book that inspired me in millions fold and I’m still trying to ingest the philosophical and religious musing of “Franny and Zooey.”

Goodbye, thanks and god bless you, JD!
