FW: Friday Funnies...a bit early



I believe what you are thinking of goes:
"Librarians are the secret masters of the Universe.
 They control information
 Don't ever piss one off!"
This was written by Spider Robinson in, I believe, Callhan's Secret (I've read all of his books, some several times over.  It gets increasingly difficult to remember for sure what happened in which book. . .)

If you like the sentiment, you should also check out:

Commandments 5 and 10 have echoes of a similar injunction regarding
your local librarian, which goes something like..

"Don't p*ss off the librarian.  They have all the power"
(not as good as the original phrasing, which I can't remember)

and speaking of chocolate... the women's woodworking group to
which I belong (Associated Women Woodworkers, Colorado
Chapter) has in its bylaws that chocolate in some form shall be
served as part of the refreshments at every meeting!!

Ever onwoods!
