So, librarybob, that's explains a lot. I see that it was your natural professional affinity that led you to open St. Jerry's and become an online bartender. emoticon

This makes me think I could have saved a lot of money and gone to bartending school instead of getting my MLIS.

without the alcohol? that doesn't sound like us!

No alcohol is always a problem. We were talking the other day at work about Jim Beam now offering a black-cherry flavored bourbon.

I chalked that up to us older folks not taking the time needed to teach younger ones how to drink.

(BTW ... I didn't get an e-mail notification of the above two posts. :-( )

Things have been slow at St. Jerry's, I'm afraid.

Is there anything anyone wants to discuss?

Well about those email notifications ---it is a known bug, one that crawled in unexpectedly when other changes were implemented. It's in the development cycle for the next install. In the meantime, you can still use your My WebJunction activities to keep up with things. That's where I saw that you had posted here.

St. Jerry's may be sleepy but work sure is fast-paced. ALA is approaching rapidly. I'm excited to be going (I *heart* Chicago) but I've got a lot to do before I get there.

Let's talk about conferences. Do you think attendance will be way down? It certainly was at our state conference in April. I'm noting a trend toward more virtual conference options. I'm seeing it in the corporate world. ASTD has just packaged selected sessions from their recent international conference and is selling the content. How enterprising.

"Missing the conference no longer means missing out on the valuable content you need to do your job more effectively."

Isn't it the season for a tall cool mint julep?

It's mint julep time indeed.

(Let's see. I need something to bruise the mint leaves .... Ah ha!)

Here you go.

I suspect attendance *may* be down, but one advantage of Chicago is generally cheaper airfares since it's centrally located. Virtual, of course, has its place (heck, *I* like it) but also its limitations, especially when it comes to being hands-on with vendor products.

Indeed! Leastways I got an e-mail for *this* thread.

(And not one for Shameless Self-Promotion.)

I got it the other way round ---inbox alert for "shameless" but not for St. Jerry's. I could have sworn I was subscribed to this thread.

Oh well, I 'll take a glass of champagne anyway. emoticon

Interesting.... We're seeing bounces for folks (ie, with non-functioning email addresses) for both threads, so that tells us subscriptions are "technically" working for both those threads. Please check to make sure you are subscribed -- If you see "Unsubscribe" at the top of the first page of the thread, you _should_ now be getting the updates.



If you aren't, will you let us know?

Other tips: Check your spam filter (probably not an issue if you are receiving updates for one of the threads and not another). You an also try toggling (click Unsubscribe, then Subscribe) the setting to see if that fixes it.

These subscriptions were enough effort that we really want it working for everyone.emoticon

Thanks, Tim. I found myself "unsubscribed" and changed it.

(Wondering how that happened.)

Can I get you a drink now that you've wandered into St. Jerry's?

I can't even begin to guess. I'm just glad you found the culprit

Sure Bob, how about something simple. Maybe a draft IPA? Really, anything on tap and cool would be fine.

-much abliged!

Here you go! Thanks for all your work under the hood.

(Yours is from the tap.)

Just thought I'd plug the Young Librarian's Series:

http://blogs.tametheweb.com/younglibrarian/2009/08/11/hello-world/

There's some nice stuff and they need to be heard.

At first I was excited to see Gen X'ers included in the "young" category, but then read further down that one must be under 40 to contribute to the site. Since I was born in the Summer of Love, guess I'm a Gen X Geezer. But I will be sure to stay in touch with her site as a reader. :-)

You're still young to us, Sharon!
