As promised, the video footage of the 2007 Riverside County Library System’s All-Staff Day Competition is up and running! While there are other teams that competed, this video is the only one I’ve managed to get my hands on so far, but at the same time, this is the only one that matters. Your humble author can be seen on the far left, with the flowered mumu, silver scarf, and oddly square-shaped buttocks. Watch! Laugh! Appreciate the fact that you’re not a librarian! (By the way, if the video seems a bit choppy, no, it wasn’t tampered with in any way, there just seem to have been a few technical errors at the time that the routine was recorded. Bear with it, you don’t miss much when it does decide to skip)
Best of all, we’ll be in Palm Desert’s annual Golf Cart Parade where a large chunk of our staff will be marching for miles with book carts in tow! (Details on that spectacle are still yet to come, but if you live in the Coachella Valley, mark your calender for October 28th)
Fun Fact: At the start of that video, after the bit about the grant, you can very faintly hear me telling my famous “Pirate Joke” as we frantically tried to stall for more time. To those of you who have never heard me tell my pirate joke (some would say “you’re missing out,” others would say “consider yourself lucky”)…
Did you hear about that pirate movie?
It was rated AAAAAARGH!
