Dancing Librarians

I chose a slightly blurry photo so as to keep identities secret. It seems like there is some sort of circular bunny hop happening.

I have more, but my laptop, despite a new battery ($157), is not healthy. It won't charge or maintain a charge when powered up, and the battery drains twice as fast as it should, even when plugged in. When shut off, it sort of charges, but the battery light goes out or flickers. Damn computers.

Keep in mind that it is largely the European librarians who are the dancers. According to an IFLA conference planner, the Europeans demand dancing! I am not sure you would see this at a conference with only North Americans.

I think you'd see dancing with North Americans, but more likely doing the electric slide to Stevie Wonder than the bunny hop.

I hope that is true.

Europeans love to dance, because, of course, they enjoy life more than N. Americans do. Joie de vivre and all that.

What kind of computer is this? I am looking for a laptop, I'd like to avoid whatever you have :-)

k: actually, I love my laptop. It's a Toshiba Satellite. I would seriously consider buying another Toshiba. The only thing stopping me is the fact that the current lineup is comprised of the ugliest things I have ever seen. It's looks as though they were designed by a seven year old. They are ugly and tacky and I hope they fix that before I am in need of a new laptop.

anon: that would be awesome if I could photograph myself while dancing. maybe I should give that a try.
