FEAR ME . . . oh . . . . . . TREEEEEEEE!
Honestly, this little clip may well be my favorite four and a half minutes of television ever. "Your stupid mind! Stupid!!" Really, it brings out the snooty little eight year old in me every time. ^_^

Hey, all of you who still have a vestige or two of faith in humanity still huddling in the far recesses of your hearts that you'd like to clear out to make room for a new decorative lamp, I have a story!!
Yesterday afternoon. I'm driving home, I turn into our little windy corner of Suburbia like I do, you know, like every day.
Little kid, maybe eight or nine. Riding his bike.
On his cell phone.
Weaving in and out of the street, concentrating more on his conversation than on where he's going, almost slams right into me.
Reiteration:
Eight year old.
Bike.
Cell phone.
Suburbia.
Dumb.
Yes, friends, we train them young.

Well, my friends, it is once again the time of year here at Ye Olde Ackermane Librarye (and at Ye Olde OSUE Librariese Ine Generale) where we have to record like all questions we treat from patrons. In the spirit of things, I thought I would regale you with some highlights from this year and years past. Why? Because it's really easy to pick out which ones are from me. Sometimes the encounter is described, sometimes I personally like to just quote the patron, because all the snark in the world can't make it any better. So here you are, cut and pasted from the records, our all-star patrons:
( The Stupids is comings! )
Yes, it's business as usual here.
Happy Orthodox Easter!

4:39 pm - Three Canadian Blonds
|
Three Canadian blondes died and found themselves standing before St.Peter. He told them that before they could enter the Kingdom, they had to tell him what Easter represented. The first blonde said, “Easter is a holiday where they have a big feast and we give thanks and eat turkey.” St. Peter said, “Noooooo,” and he banished her to Hell.
The second blonde said, “Easter is when we celebrate Jesus’ birth and exchange gifts.” St. Peter said, “Noooooo,” and he banished her to Hell.
The third blonde said she knew what Easter was, and St. Peter said, “So, tell me.” She said, “Easter is a Christian holiday that coincides with the Jewish festival of Passover. Jesus was having Passover feast with his disciples when He was betrayed by Judas, and the Romans arrested Him. The Romans hung Him on the cross and eventually He died. Then they buried Him in a tomb behind a very large boulder … ”
St. Peter said, “Verrrrrry good.”
Then the blonde continued, “Now, every year the Jews roll away the boulder and Jesus comes out. If he sees his shadow, we have six more weeks of hockey.”
St. Peter fainted.

So, another year, another cat probably about to die a horrible death.
Poor Atticus - really, he went through too much and came out strong to go like this.
FIP test results probably coming in Friday.

So this year, my birthday apparently had some world-changing powers. That is to say: not one but two people who baked me cakes were baking cakes . . . for the very first time.
I mean - yes, I gave up cake (and swearing) for Lent.
But how can I say no to someone's very first cake?
Especially when it has these giant lumps of cream cheese inside?
Last night, I saw "Gamers" for the first time. Yes. And that's all I have to say about that. ^_^

So - I can't read a poster across the room. I really can't. Even with my glasses on, I can hardly see anything clearly more than three feet from my face.
And yet?
The Ohio BMV just cleared me to drive without corrective lenses.
You know, the first time I got my license it was the same thing. I took the test, squinted quite hard, passed with a headache for the next hour. First renewal, they saw that I wore them and assumed that I would wear them and marked me restriction B. But this time? He asked if I wanted to go without the lenses, so I did, squinted my way through, have a headache, and apparently passed with no restrictions.
This, my friends, is why it is not safe to be on the road. :) :)

Obama blames videogames for the country's problems and Dream Theater comes to Columbus on May 16. Now you know who I'm not voting for and what I'm doing on May 16. :)

So yesterday morning, the priest begins his homily with a booming "Happy Lent!" I can't tell you how happy it makes me to hear that from someone else. :)
This morning was the 6th annual Post Ash-Wednesday Midnight Feast. I know it ruins all health benefits to fasting when you follow it with a binge, but whatever. It's fun. ^_^

. . . there are more guys than girls at the circ counter right now. I have not experience this sight since we left Main.
Thought you ought to know. :)
So . . . . . . apparently, just over a week ago the kerosene heater back home blew up and did like $15,000 damage to our house. A big deal? I like to think so. A big enough deal that someone in my family might have called to let me know? Apparently not. Yeah. Kittens are okay.
