I just have to blog this photo. I'd love to see it at night all lit up. I wonder if the owner of it will allow me to use it as an avatar?

Perhaps we could put neons like this outside our branches, to get the punters in the doors?

Librarian Shoes

Shiny red shoes!!
Originally uploaded by library_chic

I found this fantastic image pool on Flickr. It's called "Librarian Shoes". Basically, librarians take photos of their shoes (while they're wearing them) and add them to this pool.

What a fun idea. If you want a look, or to contribute, go to:

Beautiful!

I'm a huge fan of Shelby Foote. I discovered him on Ken Burns Civil War series, and just fell in love with his humour, wisdom, words and that gorgeous accent.

I just found this photo through Michael Stephens Tame the Web blog, and had to share it.

Magical Meme's

Well I promised that I would post meme's (little blog exercises) regularly to help you all with inspiration. So here's one for this week.

You know you've seen those READ posters put out by the American Library Association? Like this one?

So your mission is to go to flickr, and choose a photograph, like the one I have chosen above, that sums up, or says something about your love of reading. Blog the photo and a slogan that says something about your passion for reading.

Mine would be of course the above photo with:

READ: It brings love and glamour to your life.

Remember, if you do this meme on your blog, you need to post the instructions on what to do so that someone else can do the meme from YOUR blog.

Happy meme making people!

Me - 23 Things Launch, originally uploaded by kath_read.

I've been flickr-ed.

Robert D took this photo. He neglected to tell me that I have the START button projected across my forehead.

Just you wait Robert, just you wait.

I Wanna Be a Mythbuster

MythBusters Encinal High Benefit-16, originally uploaded by kwc.

Well as the "Sharing Images" module of 23 Things calls for me to blog a photo from Flickr, I've chosen this one of Jamie Hyneman and Adam Savage from Mythbusters. They're my heroes!

I think if I could do ANYTHING other than what I already do for a living, I would choose to become a Mythbuster. I mean, not only do you get to find out WHY things do what they do, but also you get to blow stuff up and destroy it at the end. How cool is that?
