On the heels of Labor Day Weekend, it is time to relax and take a break. We have been closed for the last three days as we’re moving books into our new shelving. Pretty exciting! The library looks great and we’re eternally grateful to all of the volunteers who’ve helped us move books, reorganize, assemble and disassemble furniture. We couldn’t have done it without you. We sincerely appreciate your help!!

Speaking of new furniture and shelving; we’re having a “salvage sale.” We’re selling various pieces of furniture and sturdy metal shelving which is perfect for storage and organization. Sale information is listed below.

I’m not sure that I bought into the idea behind Mad Money. Sure the movie is purely fictional and made for entertainment purposes only but this was a bit of a stretch. C’mon, even if this were possible, in this day and age, someone would have thought of this scheme by now. It’s too simple. Not to mention the heightened security measures taken by federal agencies. I just can’t get past the actual reality of how this would NEVER work. We’re talking about the National Treasury here - not your local bank. Don’t get me wrong. The movie has a great cast and some comedic highlights. If you’re looking for a comedy about three women who find a way to “beat the system”, albeit unrealistically, then you might enjoy this film. Check it out for yourself.
