Libraries turn the page, many want to axe videos

• "A library is dedicated to the pursuit of truth. A library is for increasing our knowledge"
• How do they expect our kids to learn when they are renting the filmed versions of The Hunt for Red October and Jackie Collins novels instead of reading the book versions. I agree. When I was a boy and wanted ro read junk novels and pornography, I would get it from my library in printed form instead of this fancy-schmancy digital stuff!
• Oops. I forgot. When I was a boy the only library was in Alexandria, and it only had papyrus scrolls. But you know what I mean. When they first started replacing those papyrus scrolls with those damned new-fangled bound books, we sure put up a stink, by cracky, and we did a damned good job of keeping those infernal books out of our children's hands until that stinkin' Renaissance came along and spoiled everything. Damn, I miss the Dark Ages. We really knew how to party back then. It's amazing how much fun you can have with some baby pigs, a barrel of mead, and a trebuchet.
