If you must leave your children in the library without adult supervision please do not expect the library staff to babysit them( no I will not make them do their homework or moderate any fights)
Beth, I assume you read (or know of) Unshelved? I'm not even a librarian and I totally dig it. Because it's all word-nerd-y and often slips in Jossverse references and comic book references.
No, there is NOT an echo in here....

Gawds, I am such a geek.
I got a Vox account within the past week or so.
You're all cutting edge and stuff!
I know!

Here is a cool story for a friday. My brother was flying from DC to San Francisco yesterday and got bumped to first class. The company he works for was bought by another and there have been endless hostile meetings and he and a coworker were on their way to another. They needed tio prep and weren't sitting together, but my bro noticed the Nice Guy next to him was traveling alone and working on a laptop with an iPod and thought he might be amenable to moving. He asked politely and the Nice Guy said no problem and started gathering up his stuff. My Bro was helping him and noticed a couple of other fliers giving him funny looks. It wasn't until the Nice Guy stood up that my bro realized it was Al Gore!
Bro apologized, but Gore was really sweet and said he was planning to work the whole flight, so it didn't matter where he sat. Bro thanked him and said "I bet if I asked the present Vice President, he'd swear at me and then have me thrown off the plane." Gore laughed and said maybe so.
How cool is that and how much of a doofus is my brother?
And...I'm spoiled for this week's Hex. Though it is up for mention, being old in the UK.
Must go watch Matt thing.
That is a fantastic story, Robin!
