I should be listing either Halloween costumes (gag!) or a couple of cool books I found today whilst volunteering at the Clearbrook warehouse. It's usually quiet on Thursday nights when they are open 'till 7, instead of their usual 5 p.m. but tonight I had the pleasure of the company of a couple of juvenile delinquents. They were fine though, but a tad...idle...and hungry. They kept trying to eat employee's food--like dry soup, that they'd noticed had been "sitting there since last week--with nobody eating them."
Forced community service. Working at our store is about the least painful kind of community service--we get high school kids that are non-offenders doing time as a high school requirement...
I ran into some other interesting folks as well, including the two boy's counselor (overseeing them) and Clearbrook Center's Social-work-type person...so it wasn't quiet at all...well, still quieter than the usual daytime.
Okay, so anyone like Winnie the Pooh? I have a ton of Pooh-books that I can't sell and am slowly donating back to the store. Personally, his name puts me off, but it didn't stop me from snagging a copy of "The Pooh Cook Book" today. Yum! How about some The Very Nearly Tea with some Fairy Toast or perhaps some Easy Honey Buns with Honey Hot Chocolate? (ooh, it's copyright 1969 by Denise Milne. We may have something here.) So maybe I'll just check it out. ISBN numbers weren't being used at the time it was written and with all the Pooh titles flying around--it'll be a search...maybe.
Night all,

EDIT: :sigh: Pooh is not worth uh, poo.
