Many memories, few regrets

By Corey Friedman

Dust collects in the corners and lines the walls where the tackstrip still evidences long-removed carpet. The walls are bare, and they wheeze through nail holes and pinpricks where photos once hung, breathing sorrow, groaning.

Few vestiges of the home’s occupants remain, save for the collection of beer, wine and liquor bottles atop a weathered piano.

Magnets still adhere to the refrigerator, advertising pizza joints, a funeral home and the House of Blues. Strange combination, but then, so were the roommates.

Relaunch and reincarnation

Welcome to the new indieregister.com, the online home of the Independent Register.

We’re working to revive the short-lived Register, which printed its last issue in January 2006, but don’t expect any more hold-and-fold copies. Online’s the way to go. This site will serve as part blog, part news site as the Register‘s three founders take up their keyboards once again.

Keep reading. We won’t disappoint.
