Thursday, May 12, 2005. So I get this phone call around 3AM the other night. Vampire Librarian: Hello, Library X. Caller: Hi, is it busy in the library? VL: No, not too bad. Caller: How about on the 1st floor? The 1st floor is the quiet floor and three floors below me.). VL: I have no idea. Caller: Well, I was thinking about streaking. Do you think it's a good time to do that? VL: The library's pretty empty, and people are leaving steadily. The ones who are still here won't appreciate the disruption.

One of those jobs that required a person to be available at all times. Something impressive like a corporate executive, a Hollywood mogul, or a government agent. Hotline using their cell phone.

http://grumpyoldjourno.blogspot.com/2009/10/when-its-deadly-its-outstanding.html
Thursday, October 22. When it's deadly, it's outstanding. That's a blackfella word. It's the ultimate praise anyone can give you" – performer Leah Purcell defines "deadly". With this month's awards for top Aboriginal achievers, most Australians now know the word. But no-one seems sure where it came from. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Grumpy Old Journo: Remembering the republicans' defeat
http://grumpyoldjourno.blogspot.com/2009/11/remembering-republicans-defeat.html
Monday, November 9. Remembering the republicans' defeat. Where is the passion we felt ten years ago. When we argued about becoming a republic? The 10th anniversary of the republican movement's defeat in the November 1999 referendum passed with scarcely a ripple the other day.

He died peacefully in his sleep after an enjoyable family outing in the evening. On behalf of the larger Skinner family - we wish his blog followers, and people in general, well for the future - life is short - stop to smell the roses - be kind to each other. What profit a man to gain the world and lose his soul". Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

http://vampirelibrarian.blogspot.com/2005_03_01_archive.html
Wednesday, March 30, 2005. Finally, an alarm clock that's smarter than me. Gauri Nanda, Research Associate, MIT Media Lab. Is about to make a lot of money. This clock is ingenious. Hopefully, they'll become available for purchase in the very near future. I can't tell you how much I want one of these, but the idea of Clockys banding together is kinda frightening, and I think we can do better than brown shag. Posted by Vampire Librarian at 2:43 AM.
