I thought you over 60 types were *all* millionaires. No?

Who are you callin' over 60, Ph.D. Boy?

Hey... I gots my ownself 25 years yet before I have to face the LaCoursian
"millionaire or putz" test. While I'm not much of a betting man, if left to
my own devices, I'd bet on "putz."

Empty threat.... they haven't paid the phone bill in years. Or the heat,
either. Brrrr....

There are many problems with the library here ("state" school and all) but I
gotta say all in all, the place works well. The ILL guy here is a magician.
I have the entire run (75 years) of an obscure journal in my carrel. Only
two libraries in the world have the entire run, and one of them ended up in
my carrel on a full-year loan. Magic, I tell ya. I owe that guy a bottle of
good booze.
