Librarian Action Figure Arrives

She's here! A miniature librarian in action, with automatic shushing motion! See her at LibrarianActionFigure.com http://www.mcphee.com/laf/
Besides the shushing function, she comes with an assortment of miniature books, one of which is "Fahrenheit 451," so I recommend we all show our loyalty and purchase one! True to form, she's already stirring a storm of controversy...from librarians who call the image "stereotypical."

Excuse me for using this post, but I normally don't do this sort of thing, putting some goofy, off the wall info into a totally u nrelated post... but, heck,, it turned autumn yesterday, and the leaves are making funny noises in the wind, and it is getting cold out there and I am starting to feel creepy.

It looks like it will work, but it is taking forever to download. So I'll try it again later.

Nard, the trailer looks intriguing! It's good to see that Robert Downey Jr. is back
on the silver screen. Mel Gibson was almost unrecognizable. Thanks for the link.
P.S. We downloaded the color ad for the
Librarian action figure at work in the Library, and it is stuck to the break room door. There has been one order for one placed currently, and I think we are going to buy a copy of "BOOK LUST" for the general collection!? SHHHHHHHHHHHuuuuuSSHhhhh.

Yea I'm from Portland, what would constitue unusual? When I first moved here I thought some of the locals were a little weird, but a decade later, it's quite normal. Amazing now that when I go back to where I grew up and consider home seems different.

You are right, Portland was not the first! See the first story in the thread.
