| This was a wonderful lecture on Life, Love, and the Pursuit of Books from Mr B. He spoke strong and clear for about an hour, then signed books and stuff. He was obviously in high spirits and good humour - when the librarian said we needed to hurry along so they could be out of the library by 8PM, he interjected loudly, "No - you can't go until midnight; you're all hostages of the library!" He may not have been kidding! He laughed heartily many times. Sometimes at his own stories and sometimes at our comments. He was clearly in his element.

Sorry - I meant to post these a couple weeks ago! Movie-making really takes it out of you!

And another. You can see me shooting this one in front of the library doors in Nard's photo above.

This has gotta be one of the oddest shaped libraries. Seemingly a block long in length, it all looks about ready to collapse upon itself. This small front section attests to that somewhat sinking look. Nevertheless, it's here Ray spoke to a good crowd on Wednesday, 6 PM, Sept. 13th, 2006.
