Re: New librarian 'doll' on the market

If you get to the bottom of the article, you'll read this paragraph:

"Pearl predicts that the shushing motion =97 triggered by a button on =
the
doll's back =97 will determine "which librarians have a sense of humor."
She likes to believe that today's librarians are secure enough in their
work that they won't take offense at the old clich=E9."

Hmmmn... how secure are we??  :)

Subject: New librarian 'doll' on the market

I don't even want to know what LMNET readers will make of the new
librarian
doll. It was just announced in a Seattle newspaper:

ml.
Let's just say I'm not planning to drag out my chain-glasses, hair bun,
and
dress anytime soon. ;-)
