Overdue Fees!!!!

New York City’s oldest library has issued a ledger of overdue fees. On that ledger is our first president, George Washington. If President Washington were alive today, he would have some hefty overdue fines. It appears that he checked out two books. One of the books was “Law of Nations” and the other was a volume of debates from “Britain’s House of Commons.” The books were due back on November 2 of 1789. Today, over 200 years later, the institution is willing to wave the late fees if they can only get the books back. I wish them luck with this endeavor.

Hide and Seek?

Police responded to a call that a robbery was in progress at a Maryland convenience store. When police arrived, they found a 20-year-old man dangling from the ventilation system. When the storeowner went to open the store up the morning of the call, he spotted a pair of feet dangling from the ceiling. After firefighters and police freed the 20-year-old man, he explained to cops that this was just a game of hide-and-seek gone wrong. However, then again, if he was really playing hide-and-seek and his friends did not find him, I guess that would make him a winner after all.
