I used to e-mail just about every college and university with a newspaper back in the 1999-2005 period. Some of these e-mails re-surface every once in a while. One to Brandeis University's The Justice around 2002 or 2003 showed up a lot in 2011 through 2013 or 2014 or so. It went deep again. But another one is now on the surface from another school. It shows an e-mail address I used to send stuff to very often around 2000 through 2004 or so. This is to a certain actor who is extremely well known throughout the world and I noticed some very interesting details in many of his high grossing movies. I did e-mail many actors and actresses back in the early 2000s. Anyone I could find a viable e-mail address for back then. A lot of these people are on Facebook ever if they probably have some member of their staff looking at stuff.

The whole point of my work is to get practical information into libraries to level the playing field for survivors/victims of crimes. Something I have been doing since 1991. And something I started doing the last week of February of 1976 trying to help myself and my fellow Earl Wooster High School students in Reno, Nevada cope with the 2-24-1976 murder investigation. This was in the murder of our then remedial English teacher's daughter Michelle Mitchell. This murder was "solved" in 1979. But it really was not solved until 2014.

Checked my e-mail and I am getting the $8.71 back for what was overpaid on the student loan for law school. I had a Regent's Scholarship my 3rd year of law school. That paid all the tuition because I was working 20 hours or so a week at the law library. Or something like that. I was cataloging all the computer files on WESTLAW while another law librarian at SUNY at Buffalo Law School Library was handling all the computer files on LEXIS. This was for a national project connected with a group of librarians at Stanford.

Also doing reference and other things.
Hope there are some academic types still around who might understand this stuff relating to libraries and research. I have met a few here in the Villages over the 14.5 years we have been here.

So the law school loan was not all that big as I also worked at the Minneapolis Public Library in the History/Travel department as an Urban Intern. Got to do a little bit of every thing. This was for the Fall of my 2nd year of law school. And a little bit into the Spring Semester but not much.

I know NOTHING but boring.

Just really excited to finally get my law school loan paid off. My U of Denver Library School loans consisted of a Stipend Grant which I paid off by convincing the State of Nevada that my 224 613 Project was enough of a benefit to the people of Nevada to warrant it being counted as working as a librarian in Nevada even though I had been doing this effort in Minnesota, Illinois, California and Florida. I did have to send them a lot of stuff to make the case. Letters sent and received along with e-mails and the like.

This morning I head up to Silver Springs to kayak with alligators amongst the jumping monkeys. Hopefully nothing weird will happen...

Driving up 301, so I will beep the horn as I pass WaWa, just in case the Nuck is in there gorging on the meatballs...

There does seem to be NOTHING going on with NOTHING.

Still ecstatic about the law school loan being paid off in full.

I worked my way through college at the University of Nevada, Reno by working for a partnership who had food service contracts at a ski lodge up Mt. Rose, a softball diamond concession and a small food shack at a historical site (Bowers' Mansion) near a swimming pool and in a good sized park. One of the partners changed careers from a small businessman to a warden. He was the Warden of the Nevada prison that held O.J. Simpson for a few years. Not sure if he was there the same time as O.J. Simpson.


Also got a couple of small Memorial Scholarships. One from the Mitchell family called the Michelle Mitchell Memorial Scholarship and one from the Leonard family called the Guy Leonard Scholarship for the best student in the Physics, English or Philosophy Departments at the University of Nevada, Reno.

NOTHING seems to be quite quiet.

John Travolta's The Fanatic had a line about NOTHING. Something about stars being NOTHING without their fans. This is a movie I would have been better off having not seen it though.

Do be careful there Spoiler -- nothing could ever induce me to kayak where it is known to be alligator laden.

But put me down for some "cement mixing" (or is it concrete, I never remember) at Culver's, another Nucky hangout!

I hope he didn't become a gator snack. That would be NOTHING but tragic.

Had a very bad dream last night where I went to the local postal center where there was a large lake near the parking lot. I had five dogs with me. And in the lake were a bunch of gators and a number of hippos. One of the dogs got lose off the golf cart and chased all the gators off but was soon gobbled up by the hippos.

The only hippos I have seen have been in zoos and the latest one was at Homosassa Springs. The only thing you have watch out for about it is that it has a habit of pushing its poop out in all directions by spinning. NOTHING like the hippos in my dreams. Homosassa Springs Wildlife State Park

Happy Birthday Lu Homosassa hippo turned 59

I’m here. I did not get ate.... but did see a fairly large set of eyes and nostrils about 6 feet in front of where I was quietly paddling. Not being able to change directions to quickly, I saw the head sink down as I passed right over it.

After that I realized that there must be lots of them that I did not see...

I got nothing but pictures of birds and turtles... no gators.

Fun trip for sure..

Hey there Sperler! Could you go back to NOTHING butt the same spot where you noticed them there Nostrils? That was me. I fell outta the custom made Concrete Mixer shaped Kayak and was waiting for you to tow me back to the dock. Seems I Over Gorged on the Hat Trick, Jersey Mike's, Wawa Meat A Ball Sangwich and A Banilla Concrete Mixer with Cookie Dough and flipped the vesel. I had a sign attached to a stick like the Roadrunner, Sperler HELP! Turns out I was holding the sign backwards so you couldn't see it.

I kept getting nipped throughout the night so I had to take out my secret weapon and smack the offending Gator over his schnout! It worked they are leaving me alone but hurry back I'm afraid of getting my puter wet!

I think I fell outta the ka yakey cause I got hit in the head by the newspaper the night before last.
