Strange questions
A lot of people tend to view the library as an information venue that can answer any question. Thus, working at a library, I’ve answered some pretty interesting, tough, and strange questions.
 
The other day when I was at work, I answered the phone, and the lady at the other end said, “Hi, we’re having a small argument at our house…”
 
I thought, okaaaaay.
 
She then proceeded to say, “I say the guy’s name is Johann Sebastian Bach, but my granddaughter keeps saying that his first name is Wolfgang.”
 
Aha.

Hey! I haven't heard from you in really long time, so I thought I'd stop in and say howdy!

hehe, that is pretty funny...I bet you do get a lot of odd questions--my mom used to work in a library and she says she got quite a few as well.

L....O...L... that's awesome. That kid needs to respect and trust elders more, though. :)

oh, that's funny. why would they call the library though? i mean i guess they figured you could look it up or something, but it's kind of funny they would assume(sp?) you'd know just 'cause you work at the library....;)

I have a library degree (used to be a librarian pre-kids) and all my friends think I am a walking dictionary. I say, get used to it!
