Funny Friday: The Modern Library
I was engaged as a consultant on planning for a new Senior Citizens Center, about 20 years ago. Two of my suggestions were ignored, adding a Starbucks, and a Martini Bar. It looks like the library may have the right idea.
I like the idea of a martini bar at a senior center.
