Glad to know things went a little better today at the library, with the exception of the dirty old man. Wait, I could be that very old man soon enough. Ok. He was just a confused old man. Yeah, that's it.
Good luck in St. Petersburg. And do please take lots and lots of snaps.

Oh dear. Did he leer at you?
Glad to hear things are going better at the library. Have fun in St. Petersburg!

Oh, oh, oh. All I can say is "oh." I had this kind of thing in England, believe it or not...but in infinitessimally smaller scale, apparently. No wonder they like their vodka so much.

Oh MY. May I suggest earplugs??? They drown out all sorts of unpleasant sounds. Not sure if they'll completely block out a jackhammer, but at least you won't have to hear the old guy's emissions. I guess a little Vick's Vaporub on your upper lip might help with the odor.
I feel like going to my public library and hugging everyone in sight!

Thank God all the science journals I get information from are online these days (and I don't need to look up ancient information). I think you should sneak in and steal the librarians' due date stamp.

Well, I'm sure that if everybody spent a lot of time staring at fin-de-siecle Russian art there would be world peace! ;)
then I can use the same argument on my grant proposals (substitute Czech surrealism for Russian fin-de-siecle). Still, all those people staring at the TV aren't fighting either.
World peace. Hmm. I haven't tried that in my efforts to write "policy relevant" grant proposals (which inevitably fail, and which this one luckily doesn't have to be) but I am curious how Benny will frame fin-de-siecle Russian art as leading to world peace. Maybe if one of the artists originally came from Moldova or Kazakhstan...
