Death meets you at your library

I love libraries and I was close to meet Joe Black two times in the past.
In one of them I was hit by a car and flew over the tarmac, and on a second occasion I got seriously injured, lost a lot of blood and risked fatal blood cloths.
But Joe Black could afford some more time.
Just think of millennia multiplied by aeons compounded by time without end.
He’s been around that long.
