RSS AND RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE

I have fed the beast and completed this assignment. I'm not sure I'll ever use this function but I am aware it exists. The rage against the machine follows along with the song theme I started with but also is a realistic situation that occurs many millions of times a day all over the world as people vent their frustrations with the electronics in their lives.

Here at our library branch this week we have yet another change to introduce to our patrons. Express pick-up of holds. This being our first day, reactions from the patrons has been good. We all know that everyone has a valid opinion and you can't please everyone. The last big change was the end of stamping the books with the due date. Again, some people love the lists and others hate them. It is a nice relief to the wrists not to stamp all those books. You give patrons options , such as checking the due dates online but believe it or not - not all people have computers. I don't know how they get along without one !

I book came across the desk today that made me laugh. I don't remember the exact title but it was about Republicans and 2.0 - revenge of the blog!

I'm sooooooooo impressed with your blog. You haven't emitted one single swear word the whole time.
Maybe there's hope for you yet???
