{ Happy Holidays }

-Excellent


The holidays really bring out the best in people. Last week there was a special-needs group in from one of the local schools. They were performing in the library lobby, doing holiday songs on Hand Bells. There were chairs set up, and a crowd of about a dozen people were sitting listening to them. Over at the service desk I was enjoying hearing the soothing sound of bells in the library, even if the songs weren’t always recognizable. A man walked up to my desk. He had an unlit cigarette hanging from his lip and had apparently just been kicked off his computer. He wanted to make a complaint:


“They won’t let me talk on the computers but they’ll let kids play with bells in the library? What the hell kind of policy is that?”


Happy Holidays!
