Thank you, DR George.  News of Leon's death has made me think a lot about my 11+ years at Dayton Metro Library.

Most of the things I dislike on FACEBOOK are the things that MR BK has talked about in the notes.  It is sad that it has become and advertising behemoth so that we are bombarded with things to look at and like, etc. 

I especially hate the posts that include a video or story and a headline that ends:  You won't believe what happens next....  or  ...Wait until you see this....  or  ....You MUST watch this....

I also have a FEW friends who continually post HUGE pictures of themselves and talk in minute detail about themselves....and nothing else....or "check in" every place they go.  Communication doesn't necessarily mean that I am interested in EVERY detail of your day.

I know!  Sometimes I think to myself...if I were really that interested in you, I'd probably be having sex with you.

DR ELMORE - I did not know the young man personally.  Many of the kids I have worked with at the theatre were friends and classmates with him.....and his family is well known in the area....you know in every community there are a few families all with the same last name who have been in the area for generations.

I know when we were teens, we used to drive our grandfather's tractor all over his farm....I wouldn't do it now....

There was a tornado in my area about an hour and a half ago.....but it was north of my town by about a mile....so we are okay....no injuries reported....but some roofs have been blown away and patio furniture has found new homes on front porches down the street.  Of course the news has been pre-empting ALL regular programming since shortly after 2 p.m.

After seeing a Facebook hint over the weekend, I received reliable confirmation this morning that my former co-worker Leon has passed away.  He was the nonprofit outreach librarian with whom I started working in 2000 and who handed me that job when he retired in 2003.  He was one-of-a-kind and will be sorely missed in the Dayton community.

Ginny, my condolences on the loss of your former co-worker.

Ditto!

I need a trek to the market. I really need celery, but there's no market with fresh produce in close proximity to my walking skills.

You say Grenada, I say Granada... DR FJL could do wonders with this:

Man Sues British Airways...


When the dentist received his E-ticket, didn't he notice a different spelling for Granada? Before i'd ever call for an airlines ticket, I'd go online and see what flights I was happiest with.

The ticket info also states how long the flight is.

DR elmore, Bryan gave Keith a bottle of Imperia Russian Vodka that, according to them both, is better than the popular Stolichnaya which Keith says you can't go wrong if you purchase it.  As for Keith's personal taste, he prefers Tito's Handmade Vodka which is made in Texas.

The Imperia bottle is very pretty.
