Little Free Library


This is a very, very neat global idea/project. You build or buy a waterproof, birdhouse-looking, box and post it in a public place. You then stock it with books that people can borrow. The rule is if you borrow a book you leave a book. 

I often complain that people are losing their interest in books - spending their lives looking at yet another computer screen.  Books connect the story to the reader's mind through tactile sensation. They don't require electricity and nobody is snooping on what you read, how fast you read it, etc (look this tidbit up in relation to Kindle....)

I am going to it!

Bending The Rules Legally.  "Comfort Animals" What if •I• am UNcomfortable with having these mutts around me? US Airways Captain next to me in terminal says comfort animals are normally dogs but can be monkeys. The link below says Elephants can be approved and DOT was/is considering adding pigs to the list. Seriously??
