The war ravaged the library of Mosul University. The Czechs want to return the center of education to the Iraqi people - Člověk v tisni

Been looking at my old friend's library at the University of Mosul and it looks like groups in various countries are trying to restock some of the books that were burned. I had not heard from this friend since around 1986 because our letters just got too heated. I mean with animosity. He had became radicalized against the West by 1986.

Was a gentle soul in 1983-1984 at the University of Denver Library School.

Terrible and not for NOTHING what happened to the city and the people of Mosul.

Google the Mosul Library if you know anyone who might be able to help with the rebuilding of the library and contact these people.

I do think a lot of people read the NOTHING thread.

My friend- or former friend or whatever you want to call him was still at the U of Mosul library around 2012 but whenever I tried Googling him some time after that never found much of anything.

Once a major center of learning in the Middle East, the library at the University of Mosul was destroyed by ISIS when they occupied the city in June 2014. The militants methodically burned nearly all of the one million books, manuscripts, and historic maps saving only a few chemistry textbooks that they used to build crude explosives. One of the finest libraries in the Middle East was burned to the ground.

Thanks for letting me know that. You know I would have been NOTHING but worried wondering if you were okay. Have a good and safe day.

Mrs. Abby, is it true that the dreaded snow has started to fall up Yonder?
I'm seeing NOTHING like that up here. In fact, the weather seems like it will be more on the mild side all week with rain but not snow. Maybe some snow showers mixed in with rain on Christmas eve day but that's about it. I'll keep you posted though because it could always change as you know.

Quite a few of us tuned into NOTHING right now. Probably the only night that K had to turn in early. Usually he's on NOTHING alone at this hour. I'm awake because my finger was throbbing and thought maybe something had bit me. Don't blame it on my husband, he fell asleep downstairs in front of the tv.......lol

Yes, that is nothing but true. Apparently there was such a run on the rings up in New Jersey that it caused a ripple effect straight south through all the eastern states hitting Florida last month. Far worse than the blackest Black Friday ever seen.

One hysterical woman, nearly trampled in the rush said: "Please I no understanda nuttin' from Nucky withoudda da Decoder ring!

Here I am. My sinuses feel like they're about to explode this morning. Been trying to keep them clear to avoid an infection but I don't know if I'm going to be able to. It doesn't help running into all these people at parties who are NOTHING but sick yet feel compelled to go and spread their germs.......

Anyway, it's Tuesday, December 18th, and I need some coffee.....

NOTHING but the reason you need to get yourself in the same time zone.

This is NOTHING but what it's like on the days that you're still sleeping. I don't know if you are off for work or pleasure and I suspect it involves travel, either way like I said before be safe and have a good day.

Somebody might surprise you and still be up when you get home.......

That sounds like NOTHING but a great way to spend a day and you sound so excited you forgot your NOTHING.

As far as the Kommander is concerned, I think he posted that just to show off because he knows how hard it is to beat me......lol
