I'll be in Minneapolis from March 25th to March 29th for the Public Library Association conference. Are there any Legion Worlders in the Twin Cities area?

The question Legion World is dying to know to answer to is... Did Rockhopper Lad twirl around and toss a beret in the air while an old woman looks on with disapproval?

There's a statue of MTM doing that in downtown Mini Apple o'Ice, Quis. Whenever I had any visitors, they always wanted to see the statue and visit the Mall of America. They always seemed more impressed with the statue.

As a matter of fact, yes I did!
The MTM statue is half a block from my hotel.

What did you say to the old woman who looked on with disapproval?

Now what excitement is happening in the Public Library Association conference? Have the Deweyphiles reigned in the Boston Librarians? Who got shushed first? I'll bet it was the Miami contingent.

The PLA conference was great! Paula Poundstone gave the closing address and we were in stitches!
I had my picture taken by the MTM statue. When my friend who took it sends me a copy, I'll post it.

CJ, I didn't really get to do much outside the conference, alas. A couple of my colleagues did get to the Walker though.

Hey Rockhopper--I was at the PLA conference! I just got back home last night. A co-worker of mine and I conducted a Talk Table on Thursday afternoon. I think we walked in the vicinity of the MTM statue a couple of times, but didn't actually see it. I'd been to the Twin Cities once before, briefly...this was the first time I got to experience the downtown area, and the nightlife. It was really fun...especially since it never snowed like they predicted!

Well for heaven's sake! I knew there were other librarians here, but I wasn't sure who they were! What was your Talk Table about?
