Bel Canto is nearing an end. Surprisingly, the director captured a lot of what was good about the book.

DR elmore a few days ago someone asked if you are feeling better. I never saw your response. Do you still have your cold?

Well, I need to be leaving work now. I and several co-workers are going up to Seattle for the ALA (American Library Association) Midwinter Conference. We're only going to the exhibition hall with all the publishers and sellers (FREE STUFF!!).

I like FREE STUFF! Marie Duplecks, or whatever her name is, probably would not.

I'm going to bring a couple of extra bags, just in case.

Gratuitous Post #100!

Hi, Tom.

TCB · « **Reply #102 on:** January 23, 2019, 11:17:35 PM »

George, for some reason, I thought you were going to the library conference in Seattle tonight.

TCB · « **Reply #103 on:** January 23, 2019, 11:18:42 PM »

I pulled out my carryon to get ready for my trip.

TCB · « **Reply #104 on:** January 23, 2019, 11:21:05 PM »

As usual, I found a lot of loose change at the bottom of the bag, where it all ends up before I go through the TSA screeners.

TCB · « **Reply #105 on:** January 23, 2019, 11:22:52 PM »

Among the coins, I found a couple of Danish Krones and five one dollar coins!

TCB · « **Reply #106 on:** January 23, 2019, 11:23:35 PM »

U.S. dollar coins.

TCB · « **Reply #107 on:** January 23, 2019, 11:24:06 PM »

I have no idea where I got them.

TCB · « **Reply #108 on:** January 23, 2019, 11:25:00 PM »

At first I was hoping they were chocolate coins, but no such luck.

TCB · « **Reply #109 on:** January 23, 2019, 11:26:19 PM »

Are we still on page four.

We need to get our rear in gear!!

I hate to be a Debbie Downer, but I don’t know often I will be able to post next week on the ship.

George · « **Reply #113 on:** January 23, 2019, 11:31:05 PM »

So, what are you going to do with the Danish Krones? Gonna save 'em and go back?

TCB · « **Reply #114 on:** January 23, 2019, 11:32:47 PM »

Now that I am a senior citizen on a fixed income, I really can’t afford those expense computer rates on the ship.

As usual? I would expect you to empty your bag after each trip

Probably save them, but doubt I will be going back any time soon.

My regular luggage, but not my carryon bag.

No free wifi to use your tablet instead of the ship's computer? Do you have a smartphone that will possibly work in the the ports?
