Meryl Streep - Rotten Tomatoes

This woman is supposedly quite nice according to a fellow Palm Harbor Library volunteer who was a teacher or something like that in the small New England town where Meryl Streep lived or lives(?) with her kids and husband.

People must not forget that this is a small world in many respects. You meet people who have met many other people especially if you volunteer among 200 or so library volunteers from many parts of the US. Too bad that the local public libraries do not seem to have that huge public group of loyal volunteers. The Mark Twain Library is different as it seems like a private library created by volunteers for other volunteers and the Villagers.

I volunteered at the Palm Harbor Library as well as the East Lake Community Library for about 10-14 hours per week from 2000-2003. Met a lot of nice people. The man in charge was kind of a obnoxious New Yorker named Gene Coppola. He was of the NYC Coppolas and of no relation that I know of to the San Francisco Coppolas of The Godfather fame. I have visited with a member of that family on Facebook on-and-off for a while. I mean with the SF based Coppolas.

Had been trying to get a foot in the door to work in a Tampa Bay area library by volunteering but no matter how hard I had tried just could not break out of the volunteer category.

I did pester many librarians about their holdings for survivors/victims of crimes while I lived there in Palm Harbor, FL from 1996-2005 so maybe that had something to do with it.
