Throwback Thursday – Weeding #tbt

A couple thoughts on a massive fiction weeding project I did at Southeast Regional Library…

I’m sure this weeding project was literally the moment that I went from believing “All books are precious tomes of knowledge that should be preserved at all costs” to “Well, I guess if we’re buying new books all the time, we gotta get rid of some. And since these ones are shitty, to the shredder they go!” 😉
Check out the command-line based ILS in the background – Dynix Classic. Thankfully I grew up in the age of DOS and caught on pretty quickly to its quirks.
The office I’m in looks quite bare bones and that’s for good reason. The office I actually worked out of was next door but since we had a vacant position at SRL while I was there, I got to use this empty office for some of my work (and make jokes about having two offices all the time as well!)

How “Fifty Shades of Grey” Became a Bestseller and Hollywood Movie

In a thread where a poster is trying to show that “Fifty Shades of Grey” is not representative of the BSDM community like so many people think it is, a person who was part of the Twilight fan fiction community when the original version was written chimes in with a great explanation of how badly written, derivative Twilight fan fiction ever came to have the success that it did.

Shea and I have been married for over a decade…

… I thought this long- unopened tub in the basement needed updating! 😉

Music Monday – “If you aren’t real/Then all my prayers aren’t worth a cent/That would mean I can just make up/What my purpose in life is”

Atheistic rap songs? Yes, please…

Pace looked rather “gangsta” on the way to the bank to deposit a bunch of money we’d accumulated as people paid us for fishing trips, birthday gifts, garage sale items and a few other things recently.
