A Gift of the Public Largess

Posted on October 9, 2002 in Celebrations

The El Toro Branch of the Orange County Public Library closed for renovations on October 1. I checked the status of three books I had due there last night: all the dates had been moved forward to March 15 2003.

Ah, the unintentional generosity of the system has given me the company of two books by Flannery O’Connor and The Annotated Huckleberry Finn for an additional five months if I desire it. That’s almost as good as owning them!
