Booth wha?

Boothism, my good man.  It’s not just a name, it’s a way of life.

Boothism-

(adj.) 1) Ideas, artistic and cultural happenings, philosophies and ways of being generally falling under the banner of, or associated with the entity known as, Booth.  2) The website and corresponding publishing outlets associated with the aforementioned Booth.  3) Booth-Writer, poet and flaneur living on the leftist side of a western country who spends days contemplating life, love, arts, death, media and movement while rolling the most perfect hand rolled cigarette.  And drinking coffee.  Lots of coffee.
