Rives: The Museum of Four in the Morning

Prevodilac: Mile Živković Lektor: Ivana Korom

The most romantic thing to ever happen to me online

Najromantičnija stvar koja mi se desila na internetu

started out the way most things do:

počela je kao i većina drugih stvari -

without me, and not online.

bez mene, i van interneta.

On December 10, 1896, the man on the medal,

10. decembra 1896, umro je čovek sa medalje,

Alfred Nobel, died.

Alfred Nobel.

One hundred years later, exactly, actually,

Nakon tačno sto godina,

December 10, 1996,

10. decembra 1996,

this charming lady, Wislawa Szymborska,

ova šarmantna dama, Vislava Simborska,

won the Nobel Prize for literature.

dobila je Nobelovu nagradu za književnost.

She's a Polish poet.

Ona je poljska pesnikinja.

She's a big deal, obviously,

Očigledno je bitna,

but back in '96, I thought I had never heard of her,

ali 1996, mislio sam da nikada nisam čuo za nju,

and when I checked out her work,

i kada sam pogledao njen rad,

I found this sweet little poem,

otkrio sam ovu simpatičnu pesmu,

"Four in the Morning."

"Četiri ujutru."

"The hour from night to day.

"Sat od noći do dana.

The hour from side to side.

Sat od strane do strane.

The hour for those past thirty..."

Sat za one od preko trideset..."

And it goes on, but as soon as I read this poem,

I ide dalje, ali čim sam je pročitao,

I fell for it hard,

poludeo sam za ovom pesmom,

so hard, I suspected we must have met

toliko da sam sumnjao da smo se sreli

somewhere before.

negde pre toga.

Had I shared an elevator ride with this poem?

Da li sam bio u liftu s ovom pesmom?

Did I flirt with this poem

Da li sam flertovao s njom

in a coffee shop somewhere?

u nekom kafiću?

I could not place it, and it bugged me,

Nisam mogao da se setim,

and then in the coming week or two,

i nerviralo me je i narednih nedelja,

I would just be watching an old movie,

gledao bih stari film,

and this would happen.

i desilo bi se ovo. (Video)

(Video) Groucho Marx: Charlie, you should have come to the first party.

Graučo Marks: Čarli, trebalo je da dođeš na prvu žurku.

We didn't get home till around four in the morning.

Nismo došli kući do 4 ujutru.

Rives: My roommates would have the TV on,

Rivz: Moji cimeri bi ostavili uključen TV,

and this would happen.

i desilo bi se ovo.

(Music: Seinfeld theme)

(Muzika: Tema iz "Sajnfelda")

(Video) George Costanza: Oh boy, I was up til four in the morning

(Video) Džordž Kostanca: Uf, bio sam budan

watching that Omen trilogy.

do 4 ujutru i gledao sam trilogiju "Predskazanje".

Rives: I would be listening to music,

Rivz: Slušao bih muziku,

and this would happen.

i desilo bi se ovo.

(Video) Elton John: ♪ It's four o'clock in the morning, damn it. ♪

(Video) Elton Džon: ♪ Prokletih je 4 sata ujutru. ♪

Rives: So you can see what was going on, right?

Rivz: Vidite šta se dešava?

Obviously, the demigods of coincidence

Bogovi slučajnosti su se očigledno

were just messing with me.

poigravali sa mnom.

Some people get a number stuck in their head,

Nekima broj ne izlazi iz glave,

you may recognize a certain name or a tune,

možda prepoznate neko ime ili melodiju,

some people get nothing, but four in the morning

neko ne dobije ništa, ali odjednom,

was in me now, but mildly,

četiri ujutru je blago bilo u meni,

like a groin injury.

poput povrede u preponama.

I always assumed it would just go away

Uvek sam pretpostavljao

on its own eventually,

da će jednom otići samo od sebe

and I never talked about it with anybody,

i nikada ni sa kim nisam pričao

but it did not, and I totally did.

o tome, ali nije, a ja sam pričao.

In 2007, I was invited to speak at TED

2007. sam pozvan da izlažem na TED-u

for the second time,

drugi put,

and since I was still an authority on nothing,

i pošto još nisam bio stručnjak ni za šta,

I thought, what if I made a multimedia presentation

pomislio sam da napravim multimedijalnu prezentaciju

on a topic so niche

o tako uskoj temi

it is actually inconsequential

da je zapravo nebitna

or actually cockamamie.

ili zapravo blesava.

So my talk had some of my four in the morning examples,

Moj govor je imao neke od primera sa četiri ujutru,

but it also had examples

ali je imao i primere

from my fellow TED speakers that year.

od kolega TED govornika te godine.

I found four in the morning in a novel

Našao sam 4 ujutro u romanu

by Isabel Allende.

Izabel Aljende.

I found a really great one

Našao sam sjajan primer

in the autobiography of Bill Clinton.

u autobiografiji Bila Klintona.

I found a couple in the work of Matt Groening,

Našao sam par u delu Meta Greninga

although Matt Groening told me later

iako mi je Met kasnije rekao

that he could not make my talk

because it was a morning session

da nije stigao na moj govor jer je bila jutarnja sesija

and I gather that he is not an early riser.

a on nije jutarnja osoba.

However, had Matt been there,

Ipak, da je Met bio tamo,

he would have seen this mock conspiracy theory

video bi posprdnu teoriju zavere

that was un-freaking-canny for me to assemble.

koju je bilo jezivo sastaviti.

It was totally contrived

Smišljena je baš

just for that room, just for that moment.

za tu prostoriju, taj trenutak.

That's how we did it in the pre-TED.com days.

Tako smo to radili pre sajta TED.com.

It was fun. That was pretty much it.

Bilo je zabavno. To je uglavnom bilo to.

When I got home, though, the emails started coming in

Ipak, kada sam došao kući. mejlovi su krenuli da stižu od ljudi

from people who had seen the talk live,

koji su videli govor uživo,

beginning with, and this is still my favorite,

počevši od ovog, koji mi je još omiljeni,

"Here's another one for your collection:

"Evo još jednog za tvoju kolekciju:

'It's the friends you can call up at 4 a.m. that matter.'"

'Bitni su prijatelji koje možeš da pozoveš u 4 ujutru.'"

The sentiment is Marlene Dietrich.

Misao Marlen Ditrih.

The email itself was from another very

Sam imejl je bio od jedne druge

sexy European type,

veoma seksi osobe iz Evrope,

TED Curator Chris Anderson.

kustosa TED-a, Krisa Andersona.

(Laughter)

(Smeh)

Chris found this quote

Kris je našao ovaj citat

on a coffee cup or something,

na šolji za kafu ili nečemu,

and I'm thinking, this man is the Typhoid Mary

a ja razmišljam, ovaj čovek je Nikola Tesla

of ideas worth spreading, and I have infected him.

ideja vrednih širenja, a ja sam ga zarazio.

I am contagious,

Ja sam zarazan,

which was confirmed less than a week later

što se potvrdilo za manje od nedelju dana,

when a Hallmark employee scanned and sent

kada je Holmarkov radnik skenirao i poslao

an actual greeting card

pravu čestitku

with that same quotation.

sa istim tim citatom.

As a bonus, she hooked me up with a second one they make.

Pored toga, poslala mi je drugu koju proizvode. Na njoj piše:

It says, "Just knowing I can call you

To što znam da mogu da te pozovem u 4 ujutru ako moram,

at four in the morning if I need to

makes me not really need to,"

čini da mi to nije potrebno,"

which I love, because together these are like,

što obožavam, jer su zajedno poput:

"Hallmark: When you care enough

"Holmark - kad vam je dovoljno stalo

to send the very best twice,

da pošaljete najbolje dvaput,

phrased slightly differently."

malo drugačije napisano."

I was not surprised at the TEDster

Nisam se iznenadio što se preklapaju TEDsteri

and New Yorker magazine overlap.

i magazin Njujorker.

A bunch of people sent me this when it came out.

Hrpa ljudi mi je poslala ovo kada je izašlo.

"It's 4 a.m.—maybe you'd sleep better if you bought some crap."

"4 je ujutru, možda ćete bolje spavati ako kupite neku glupost."

I was surprised at the TEDster/"Rugrats" overlap.

Iznenadilo me je preklapanje TEDstera sa Ragretsima.

More than one person sent me this.

Više ljudi mi je poslalo ovo.

(Video) Didi Pickles: It's four o'clock in the morning.

(Video) Didi Pikls: Četiri je ujutru.

Why on Earth are you making chocolate pudding?

Pobogu, zašto praviš puding od čokolade?

Stu Pickles: Because I've lost control of my life.

Stu Pikls: Jer sam izgubio kontrolu

(Laughter)

nad svojim životom. (Smeh)

Rives: And then there was the lone TEDster

Rivz: Tu je bio i usamljeni TEDster

who was disgruntled I had overlooked

koji je bio ljut što sam zanemario

what he considers to be a classic.

ono što on smatra klasikom.

(Video) Roy Neary: Get up, get up! I'm not kidding. Ronnie Neary: Is there an accident?

(Video) Roj Niri: Ustaj! Ne šalim se! Roni Niri: Je l' bila nesreća?

Roy: No, it's not an accident. You wanted to get out of the house anyway, right?

Roj: Ne, nije nesreća. Svejedno si htela da izađeš iz kuće, zar ne?

Ronnie: Not at four o'clock in the morning.

Roni: Ne u četiri ujutru.

Rives: So that's "Close Encounters,"

Rivz: To je "Bliski susret,"

and the main character is all worked up

i glavni lik je uzbuđen

because aliens, momentously,

jer su vanzemaljci odjednom

have chosen to show themselves to earthlings

odlučili da se prikažu Zemljanima

at four in the morning,

u četiri ujutru,

which does make that a very solid example.

što to čini dobrim primerom.

Those were all really solid examples.

To su sve bili dobri primeri.

They did not get me any closer to understanding

Nisu me doveli bliže razumevanju toga

why I thought I recognized this one particular poem.

zašto sam prepoznao tu jednu pesmu.

But they followed the pattern. They played along.

Ali pratili su šablon. Sarađivali su.

Right? Four in the morning as this scapegoat hour

Zar ne? Četiri ujutru kao žrtveni čas

when all these dramatic occurrences

kada se navodno dešavaju sve ove

allegedly occur.

dramatične radnje.

Maybe this was some kind of cliche

Možda je ovo neka vrsta klišea

that had never been taxonomized before.

koji nikad pre nije bio zaveden.

Maybe I was on the trail

Možda sam na tragu novog mima

of a new meme or something.

ili tako nečega.

Just when things were getting pretty interesting,

Kako su stvari počele da se zakuvavaju,

things got really interesting.

postalo je veoma zanimljivo.

TED.com launched, later that year,

Krajem te godine, pokrenut je TED.com,

with a bunch of videos from past talks,

sa hrpom snimaka iz prošlih govora,

including mine,

uključujući i moj,

and I started receiving "four in the morning" citations

i počeo sam da dobijam citate o četiri ujutru

from what seemed like every time zone on the planet.

iz svake vremenske zone na planeti.

Much of it was content I never would have found

Većinu toga nikada ne bih pronašao

on my own if I was looking for it,

kada bih sam tražio, a nisam to radio.

and I was not.

I don't know anybody with juvenile diabetes.

Ne znam nikoga sa ranim dijabetesom.

I probably would have missed the booklet,

Verovatno bih zanemario pamflet

"Grilled Cheese at Four O'Clock in the Morning."

"Grilovani sir u četiri ujutru."

(Laughter)

(Smeh)

I do not subscribe to Crochet Today! magazine,

Nisam pretplaćen na časopis "Kukičanje danas",

although it looks delightful. (Laughter)

iako izgleda dražesno. (Smeh)

Take note of those clock ends.

Pogledajte na kazaljke.

This is a college student's suggestion

Ovo je predlog jednog studenta

for what a "four in the morning" gang sign

za to kako bi izgledao znak bande

should look like.

za četiri ujutru.

People sent me magazine ads.

Ljudi su mi slali oglase iz časopisa.

They took photographs in grocery stores.

Fotografije iz radnji.

I got a ton of graphic novels and comics.

Dobio sam hrpu grafičkih romana i stripova.

A lot of good quality work, too:

Takođe i dosta kvalitetnih radova:

"The Sandman," "Watchmen."

"Sendmen", "Nadzirači."

There's a very cute example here from "Calvin and Hobbes."

Evo simpatičnog primera iz "Kalvina i Hobsa".

In fact, the oldest citation anybody sent in

Zapravo, najstariji citat koji je neko poslao

was from a cartoon from the Stone Age.

je bio iz crtanog filma iz Kamenog doba.

Take a look.

Pogledajte.

(Video) Wilma Flintstone: Like how early?

(Video) Vilma Kremenko: Koliko rano?

Fred Flintstone: Like at 4 a.m., that's how early.

Fred Kremenko: Kao 4 ujutru, toliko rano.

Rives: And the flip side of the timeline,

Rivz: A sa druge strane ose,

this is from the 31st century.

ovo je iz 31. veka.

A thousand years from now,

Hiljadu godina od sada,

people are still doing this.

ljudi još uvek rade ovo.

(Video): Announcer: The time is 4 a.m.

(Video) Spiker: Sada je 4 sata ujutru.

(Laughter)

(Smeh)

Rives: It shows the spectrum.

Rivz: To pokazuje spektar.

I received so many songs, TV shows, movies,

Dobio sam toliko pesama, TV emisija, filmova,

like from dismal to famous,

od tužnih do poznatih,

I could give you a four-hour playlist.

mogu da vam dam plejlistu od 4 sata.

If I just stick to modern male movie stars,

Kada bih se samo držao modernih muških glumaca,

I keep it to the length

dobija se dužina

of about a commercial.

otprilike jedne reklame.

Here's your sampler.

Evo uzorka.

(Movie montage of "It's 4 a.m.")

(Filmska montaža "Četiri je ujutru")

(Laughter)

(Smeh)

Rives: So somewhere along the line,

Rivz: U nekom trenutku sam shvatio

I realized I have a hobby

da imam hobi za koji nisam

I didn't know I wanted,

znao da ga želim,

and it is crowdsourced.

a drugi ga omogućavaju.

But I was also thinking what you might be thinking,

Ali mislio sam i ono što možda i vi mislite,

which is really, couldn't you do this

zar ne možeš ovo da uradiš sa bilo kojim satom u danu?

with any hour of the day?

First of all, you are not getting clips like that

Prvo, takve snimke nećete dobiti

about four in the afternoon.

za četiri popodne.

Secondly, I did a little research.

Drugo, istraživao sam.

You know, I was kind of interested.

Malo sam se zainteresovao.

If this is confirmation bias,

Ako je ovo pristrasnost potvrde,

there is so much confirmation, I am biased.

potvrde ima toliko da sam pristrasan.

Literature probably shows it best.

Knjiženost to verovatno najbolje prikazuje.

There are a couple three in the mornings in Shakespeare.

Postoji nekoliko tri ujutru kod Šekspira.

There's a five in the morning.

Kao i pet ujutru.

There are seven four in the mornings,

Sedam puta četiri ujutru, i svi su strašni.

and they're all very dire.

In "Measure for Measure," it's the call time for the executioner.

U "Meri za meru", to je vreme kada se poziva egzekutor.

Tolstoy gives Napoleon insomnia

Tolstoj Napoleonu daje nesanicu

at four in the morning right before battle

u četiri ujutru tik pred bitku

in "War and Peace."

u "Ratu i miru".

Charlotte Brontë's "Jane Eyre" has got kind of

"Džejn Ejr" Šarlot Bronte ima ključnih četiri ujutru,

a pivotal four in the morning,

as does Emily Brontë's "Wuthering Heights."

kao i "Orkanski visovi" Emili Bronte.

"Lolita" has as a creepy four in the morning.

"Lolita" ima jezivih četiri ujutru.

"Huckleberry Finn" has one in dialect.

"Haklberi Fin" ima ovo vreme u dijalektu.

Someone sent in H.G. Wells' "The Invisible Man."

Neko je poslao "Nevidljivog čoveka" H. Dž. Velsa.

Someone else sent in Ralph Ellison's "Invisible Man."

Neko je poslao "Nevidljivog čoveka" Ralfa Elisona.

"The Great Gatsby" spends the last

"Veliki Getsbi" provodi poslednjih

four in the morning of his life

četiri ujutru svog života

waiting for a lover who never shows,

čekajući dragu koja se ne pojavljuje,

and the most famous wake-up in literature, perhaps,

i možda najpoznatijih četiri ujutru u književnosti,

"The Metamorphosis."

"Preobražaj".

First paragraph, the main character wakes up

U prvom pasusu, glavni lik se budi

transformed into a giant cockroach,

preobražen u ogromnu bubašvabu,

but we already know, cockroach notwithstanding,

ali već znamo, čak i bez bubašvabe,

something is up with this guy.

da nešto nije u redu s njim.

Why? His alarm is set for four o'clock in the morning.

Zašto? Alarm mu je navijen za četiri ujutru.

What kind of person would do that?

Kakva osoba bi to uradila?

This kind of person would do that.

Ovakva osoba.

(Music)

(Muzika)

(4 a.m. alarm clock montage)

(Montaža alarma u 4 ujutru)

(Video) Newcaster: Top of the hour. Time for the morning news.

(Video) Spiker: Pun je sat. Vreme je za jutarnje vesti.

But of course, there is no news yet.

Ali naravno, vesti nema.

Everyone's still asleep in their comfy, comfy beds.

Svi još spavaju u svojim udobnim krevetima.

Rives: Exactly.

Rivz: Tačno.

So that's Lucy from the Peanuts,

To je Lusi iz "Čarlij Braun i Snupi šou",

"Mommie Dearest", Rocky, first day of training,

"Najdraža mamica", Roki, prvi dan treninga.

Nelson Mandela, first day in office,

Nelson Mandela, prvi dan na poslu,

and Bart Simpson, which combined with a cockroach

i Bart Simpson, koji bi vam zajedno sa bubašvabom

would give you one hell of a dinner party

dali paklenu večernju žurku

and gives me yet another category,

i daje mi još jednu kategoriju

people waking up, in my big old database.

u mojoj velikoj bazi podataka, ljudi koji se bude.

Just imagine that your friends and your family

Samo zamislite da su vaši prijatelji i porodica

have heard that you collect, say, stuffed polar bears,

čuli da skupljate plišane igračke polarnih medveda

and they send them to you.

i šalju vam ih.

Even if you don't really, at a certain point,

Čak i ako ih ne skupljate, u jednom trenutku

you totally collect stuffed polar bears,

apsolutno skupljate polarne medvede,

and your collection is probably pretty kick-ass.

i vaša kolekcija je verovatno strava.

And when I got to that point, I embraced it.

Kada sam stigao dotle, prihvatio sam to.

I got my curator on. I started fact checking,

Postao sam kustos, počeo da proveravam činjenice,

downloading, illegally screen-grabbing.

preuzimam s interneta, ilegalno slikam scene iz filmova.

I started archiving.

Počeo sam da arhiviram.

My hobby had become a habit,

Moj hobi je postao navika,

and my habit gave me possibly the world's

a moja navika mi je dala verovatno najeklektičniju

most eclectic Netflix queue.

plejlistu na svetu na Netfliksu.

At one point, it went, "Guys and Dolls: The Musical,"

U jednom trenutku, glasilo je: "Mjuzikl momci i devojke",

"Last Tango in Paris,"

"Poslednji tango u Parizu",

"Diary of a Wimpy Kid,"

"Dnevnik kilavog klinca",

"Porn Star: Legend of Ron Jeremy."

"Porno zvezda: legenda o Ronu Džeremiju".

Why "Porn Star: Legend of Ron Jeremy"?

Zašto baš taj film?

Because someone told me I would find this clip in there.

Jer mi je neko rekao da ću tu naći ovaj odlomak.

(Video) Ron Jeremy: I was born

(Video) Ron Džeremi: Rođen sam

in Flushing, Queens

u Flašingu, u Kvinsu,

on March, 12, 1953,

12. marta 1953,

at four o'clock in the morning.

u četiri sata ujutru.

Rives: Of course he was. (Laughter) (Applause)

Naravno. (Smeh) (Aplauz)

Yeah. Not only does it seem to make sense,

Da. Ne samo da to ima smisla,

it also answers the question,

već i odgovara na pitanje:

"What do Ron Jeremy and Simone de Beauvoir

"Šta imaju zajedničko Ron Džeremi

have in common?"

i Simon de Bovoar?"

Simone de Beauvoir begins her entire autobiography

Simon de Bovoar počinje svoju celu autobiografiju

with the sentence, "I was born at four o'clock in the morning,"

rečenicom: "Rodila sam se u četiri ujutru,"

which I had because someone else had emailed it to me,

koju sam imao jer ju je neko poslao meni,

and when they did, I had another bump up

i kada su to uradili imao sam još jedan unos

in my entry for this, because porn star Ron Jeremy

u svom zapisniku, jer porno zvezda Ron Džeremi

and feminist Simone de Beauvoir

i feministkinja Simon de Bovoar

are not just different people.

nisu samo različiti ljudi.

They are different people that have this thing connecting them,

To su različiti ljudi koje ovo povezuje,

and I did not know if that is trivia or knowledge

i nisam znao da li je to trivijalnost ili znanje

or inadvertent expertise, but I did wonder,

ili nehotična stručnost, ali jesam se zapitao,

is there maybe a cooler way to do this?

ima li boljeg načina da se ovo uradi?

So last October, in gentleman scholar tradition,

Prošlog oktobra, u maniru džentlmena učenjaka

I put the entire collection online

celu kolekciju sam postavio na internet

as "Museum of Four in the Morning."

kao "Muzej 4 sata ujutru".

You can click on that red "refresh" button.

Možete kliknuti na to crveno "refresh".

It will take you at random to one of

od stotine isečaka iz kolekcije.

Here is a knockout poem

Evo odlične pesme Bilija Kolinsa

by Billy Collins called "Forgetfulness."

koja se zove "Zaboravnost". (Video)

(Video) Billy Collins: No wonder you rise

Bili Kolins: Nije ni čudno

in the middle of the night

što ustaješ u sred noći

to look up the date of a famous battle

da potražiš datum slavne bitke

in a book on war.

u knjizi o ratu.

No wonder the moon in the window

Nije ni čudo što se čini da je mesec u prozoru

seems to have drifted out of a love poem

odlutao iz ljubavne pesme

that you used to know by heart.

koju si znao napamet.

Rives: So the first hour of this project

Rivz: Prvi sat ovog projekta

was satisfying.

je bio zadovoljavajući.

A Bollywood actor sang a line on a DVD in a cafe.

Bolivudski glumac je zapevao stih na DVD-u u kafiću.

Half a globe away, a teenager

Na drugoj strani planete, tinejdžer

made an Instagram video of it and sent it to me,

jer napravio video na Instagramu i poslao mi ga,

a stranger.

stranac.

Less than a week later, though,

Ipak, nakon nešto manje

I received a little bit of grace.

od nedelju dana, dobio sam malo milosti.

I received a poignant tweet.

Dobio sam dirljiv tvit.

It was brief.

Bio je kratak.

It just said, "Reminds me of an ancient mix tape."

Glasio je samo: "Podseća me na staru kasetu."

The name was a pseudonym, actually, or a pseudo-pseudonym.

Ime je bilo pseudonim, zapravo, ili pseudo-pseudonim.

As soon as I saw the initials, and the profile pic,

Čim sam video inicijale i profilnu sliku,

I knew immediately, my whole body knew

odmah sam znao, celo moje telo je znalo

immediately who this was,

odmah ko je ova osoba,

and I knew immediately

i odmah sam znao

what mix tape she was talking about.

o kojoj kaseti je pričala.

(Music)

(Muzika)

L.D. was my college romance.

L.D. je bila moja ljubav iz fakultetskih dana.

This is in the early '90s. I was an undegrad.

Ovo je iz ranih '90-ih. Bio sam na osnovnim studijama.

She was a grad student in the library sciences department.

Ona je bila na diplomskim studijama bibliotekarstva.

Not the kind of librarian that takes her glasses off,

Ne ona bibliotekarka koja bi skinula naočari,

lets her hair down, suddenly she's smoking hot.

pustila kosu i odjednom bila ultra zgodna.

She was already smoking hot,

Već je bila ultra zgodna,

she was super dorky,

veliki štreber,

and we had a December-May romance,

i imali smo romansu od decembra do maja,

meaning we started dating in December,

što znači da smo počeli u decembru

and by May, she had graduated

i do maja je diplomirala

and became my one that got away.

i postala ona koja mi je utekla.

But her mix tape did not get away.

Ali njena kaseta nije.

I have kept this mix tape in a box

Ovu kasetu sam držao u kutiji

with notes and postcards, not just from L.D.,

sa pismima i razglednicama, ne samo od L.D.,

from my life, but for decades.

već iz života, decenijama.

It's the kind of box where,

To je onakva kutija gde,

if I have a girlfriend, I tend to hide it from her,

ako imate devojku, krijete je od nje,

and if I had a wife, I'm sure I would share it with her,

a da sam oženjen, podelio bih to,

but the story — (Laughter) — with this mix tape

ali priča - (Smeh) - sa ovom kasetom

is there are seven songs per side,

je to da svaka strana ima sedam pesama,

but no song titles.

ali bez naziva pesama.

Instead, L.D. has used the U.S. Library of Congress

Umesto toga, L.D. je koristila sistem klasifikacije

classification system, including page numbers,

Američke biblioteke kongresa, sa brojevima strana,

to leave me clues.

kako bi mi ostavila tragove.

When I got this mix tape,

Kada sam dobio ovu kasetu,

I put it in my cassette player,

stavio sam je u radio.

I took it to the campus library, her library,

Odneo sam je do biblioteke na fakultetu, njene biblioteke,

I found 14 books on the shelves.

našao sam 14 knjiga sa polica.

I remember bringing them all

Sećam se da sam ih sve doneo

to my favorite corner table,

do mog omiljenog stola u uglu,

and I read poems paired to songs

i čitao sam pesme uparene s muzikom,

like food to wine,

kao hranu s vinom,

paired, I can tell you,

uparene, kažem vam,

like saddle shoes

kao oksfordice

to a cobalt blue vintage cotton dress.

sa kobaltno plavom starinskom haljinom od pamuka.

I did this again last October.

Ovo sam ponovo uradio prošlog oktobra.

I'm sitting there, I got new earbuds,

Sedim sa novim slušalicama,

old Walkman, I realize this is just the kind

starim vokmenom, shvatam da je ovo baš ona

of extravagance I used to take for granted

ekstravagancija koju sam uzimao zdravo za gotovo

even when I was extravagant.

i kada sam bio ekstravagantan.

And then I thought, "Good for him."

I onda sam pomislio: "Blago njemu."
