Hey TH, could you hold still. I am trying to read what it says on your t-shirt.

But no matter what it says, you can sprawl across the whole screen here, wearing whatever the heck you want. Because you own the joint. And the atmosphere you choose to create here, obviously gives choice to your readers. Go or stay. Whatever. You own the printing press. It's your call.

But the public owns the public schools. Not easy. Public schools and public libraries have to spend a whole lot of time dealing with this very issue. It has to come right back to the mission statement I guess maybe. I just know it's not easy when dealing with the public. Just a little example I threw out there this morning.

TH! WHAT DOES THAT SAY ON THAT SHIRT YOU ARE WEARING!
