Hey Tal,

I hope Linda and Carl H. do not mind that I keep talking about librarians in their thread. Something tells me though that both of them like librarians, too.

Any really good librarian knows that marketing is a big part of the job, putting the right book, in the right hands, at the right time so that the "customer" wants to come back.

There is also that library thing that says, "When you absolutely, positively have to know, ask a librarian." (They don't know everything, of course, but they know where to find out.)

Anyway, I just have to show you this link. It is a hoot and a half for those of us who know librarians.

And talk about marketing -- this real librarian sure knows what that's about.

A warning to TOTVers about librarians: Never, ever, ever engage a team of librarians in a game of trivia. They will collectively kick the behinds of any opponents. Some librarians can even answer questions about sports. And they might also make you buy them beer rounds. Do not say I did not warn you.
