Okies in the BYC The Original

[Buckguy20]

i know a guy that had some pigeons roosting in his attic.
I can't say on here what he called them.
I haven't heard words like those strung together since junior high
when one of my buddies was trying to teach himself how to cuss.

Hmm... Do I detect a kindred spirit?

It's the cover of his newest book, which I am currently reading (see signature line).

I'm a librarian. I like to promote good books.

I used to carpool with a librarian, we were both working a "transitional" job. She moved due to divorced and my job got send to India. Since I assumed she liked books. I asked her what sheliked to read. She said "oh, I've never been much of a reader". I was a bit a-gog. I asked her if she had a thing for the Dewey Decimal System. her response was she just liked the quiet. Fair enough answer I guess.

I love the the scientific Richard Dawkins and have red a couple of his books but the politics that surround him, well I just stay out of it.

I haven't read a lot of Dawkins, but of what I have, this is by far the least shrill. More like a just-the-facts rather than a lot of ranting.

I had a library director like that. Never figured out how he advanced that high.

But not everyone who works in a library is a librarian, so maybe that was it. Just like not everyone who works in a school is a teacher. It tends not to matter much for a lot of library staff.

Does to me, though. I won't even hire someone for a clerk or library aide position if they aren't readers, and my interviews are peppered with questions to test them on it, even if they are only going to shelve books. I like people who love their jobs. Can't love library work if you don't love books, I figure.

Anyway, welcome to the thread, if I haven't said it already.

we had quite a thunderstorm roll through here about 6:30 this morning, then it rained for awhile and stopped - now it is starting to rain again. Should have left the house before the rain started again..... what was I thinking? Oh yeah - I was catching up on BYC and apparently wasn't thinking beyond the smiles about silly pigeon names.

Behind the couch. They've been there the whoooooole time.

That shows what kind of house-keeper I am. I've ben looking for them if for nothing else just to dust them off.

It was raining in sheets and hailing and everything here for about 10 minutes. I could hear some chickens complaining - and when I looked out the window the buff orps were huddled in a corner of the run with their beaks pointed up in the air trying to commit suicide. I rushed out and put them back inside the coop and shut the pop door. Silly hens. Now that it's raining in a more sedate manner I'll go open the pop door. I think the worst has passed us here - watch out to the east!

Morning!

No rain here yet. I 'm sure it's coming.

Thanks for the praise on the Tshirts but I don't design them, I just tell her what I want & she shoots idea's to me.

Guess we are down to 16 days to order Tshirts
