In the middle of watching Tatiana Maslany’s “Maximum Pleasure Guaranteed” and kept wondering why the detective in that show was so familiar - turns out we had watched him basically play the same role for 7 seasons in Elementary

If you count the groundhog, Eggs, who lives under my front door and has visited the library once, then I am proud to say my library is all of these things.

A groundhog is in between two bookshelves in the library

When you are a librarian and you travel, you visit libraries #mexicocity #booksky #libraries

One of the coolest surprises of our Pakistan trip was finding the Lincoln Corner inside a library in Lahore. The US embassy established 19 “Lincoln Corners” all around the country where anyone can come in and use resources that might not be available elsewhere… #Libraries #Library #booksky

Me, my wife, and 5 staff of the Lincoln Corner inside the Quaid-e-Azam library in Lahore. We are posing in front of a backdrop of an American flag, a Pakistani flag and bookshelves full of books.

A red, white, and blue color schemed section of the Lincoln Corner. There is a state of the art 3-D printer in the corner as well as a standee of the Statue of Liberty. A mural of the moon landing is also present on the walls.

Another shot Lincoln Corner - this time of a large periodical rack against a wall. A mural of the Golden Gate Bridge is seen behind some current test prep books on a shelf.

Can’t wait to get back to Vașington - and its hallmark-ass national mall. I can forgive using AI here. Remarkably, the National mall has never actually been photographed. #WashingtonDC #NationalMall #AiSlop

An AI slop generated image of Washington DC at the Istanbul Airport. The mall looks like a park from a Hallmark movie and there are nondescript Washington federal buildings abutting it in fantastical ways.

It is always fun when you stumble upon whimsy in a journal article - here a Pigeon is “on his way to X-ray” Silly pigeon. This is a human hospital.

From a medical journal article, A large photo of a pigeon in a hospital corridor. The caption reads “A Pigeon on his way to X-ray. UK cancer hospital basement corridor, May 2023”

My fav onion article!

Onion article “COMMUNITY VOICES
Somebody Should Do Something
About All The Problems
Why isn't anyone doing anything about all the problems? We're living in a time with supercomputers and underwater sea stations and million-dollar laboratories. And still, every day when I
watch the TV news shows, I see all sorts of problems!
What are the scientists doing with all that technology?
Just sitting on their patoots? Just yesterday
there
was
another plane crash.
Isn't that what we have radar for? Why
Heare Me Out
isn't someone tak-
By Edith Heare
ing care of that?
And then there's all those people starving. You can't tell me that we can't figure out a way to feed them. What about all those high-energy vitamin supplements I read about? And what about the dehydrated space food? Someone has got to
And now I have shingles again. With the hundreds of thousands of doctors all over this world, you are telling me that not one of them can do anything about this pain? It's killing me. This is the 20th century, isn't it? We put a man on the moon and I can't find an hour of relief from the swelling? Can't someone assign a team to this problem and get something done for once?
Then there's the fact that my kids never visit me. Here I sit, all alone, wondering when they'll come. We have jet planes that break the sound barrier, but Ginny can't make it from Elk Grove once a month so I can see my own flesh and blood? The Hubble sent down pictures of the galaxy, but I have yet to see my granddaughter's fourth-grade school portraits!
They build a wall across China and a thousand years later I'm still putting up with my neighbor's pine trees dropping cones all over my front lawn. Isn't this a democracy? Have we stood still since Rome?
I hear jabber jabbering about the discovery of new subatomic particles. What good is a quark…”
