I haven't had internet at home for about five or six years now. Usually, I go to my local town library to use their computers. Above is the old Webster Public Library in Massachusetts, officially named the Chester C. Corbin Public Library. The building was in use just a bit less than one hundred years.
A little over a month ago, however, work was completed on a new library which miraculously fit on the same lot as the previous building, although it's roughly three times the size of the old one. The new library is the Gladys E. Kelly Public Library. (I have no idea why Mr. Corbin got the shaft, as it were.)
I was, not surprisingly, one of the first patrons to enter the new structure on September 4th. A reporter/photographer named Gus Steeves snapped a photo of me without my knowledge as I entered the building. Gus knows my name because, as it happens, he dated a close friend of mine several years ago!
I saw Gus on the inside of the library that day, but didn't know he'd taken my picture a few minutes earlier. Without my knowledge (or permission!), said picture of camera-shy me wound up on the front page of the Webster Times!
What's that you say? Oh, you can't see me? Well, let me give you a close-up!
There! Now, who says I never show photos of myself on my blog?
Thanks for your time.
