Library show was interesting, but not really what was advertised. It was about importance of libraries, illustrated with occasional snippets from movies. Yes, Marion the Librarian was well represented. As was a movie with Tracey and Hepburn, which was the companion to a section about Hepburn's sister, who is a librarian. A large segment was on the Salinas, Ca., libraries, that were going to be closed because idiots who don't use libraries don't think they should have to pay for them. The literacy program in San Quentin Prison raised money for the libraries, with the quote "If you don't have libraries for kids, the only place left for them is someplace like this."

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
My problem is always across the back.
My back is pretty narrow these days (although the girls can be a problem). Anything you don't mind hanging onto until the next time we see each other, would be great.
I'm trying to collect examples of good celebrity tweeters. So far I have Misha Collins, Matthew Gray Gubler and John Rogers. Anyone else you'd cite as Celeb Tweeting 101?

Kristin Vangsness and Paget Brewster (I enjoy the whole CM crew) are interesting posters.
