Ashley the Librarian

Yes it's true, you're friend Ashley is now a librarian at AIB. I practiced my "Sssshhhh!" all week and today I was ready! Of course sshhing isn't the only responsibility of being a librarian, so I also watched some insprationaly, and informative clips on libraries and what it means to work in one.

This first clip is from UHF, if you haven't seen it yet you should, it's fantastic



And this clip provided by the US government



The cookie monster almost made me change my mind about becoming a librarian but then I decided that I could life a couple hours without a cookie

the 80's

So far in my 80's class we've watched Micheal Jackson videos and a few others. We learned about some good and some horrible art made in the 80's and we went to the ICA.



I only have a few questions about this video
1. Where did he get that giant bow tie?
2. Is he dancing in front of jello?
3. Where did he get marbles that big?





A little Thriller triva, did you know that Micheal Jackson orginally wanted his pastic surgery to look something like this video but a survey showed that the face scared childern too much.

How did Micheal Jackson get John Landis to direct his music video? He directed Animal House, Blues Brothers, An American Werewolf in London, Trading Places, ¡Three Amigos!, and Coming to America!



Take on Me
I hope this teaches you all a very important lesson, always pay your bill before climbing into a comic book.
