Lady Gaga and Tony Bennett did a well publicized concert in Radio City Music hall in August 2021. Even 60 Minutes reported it.

60 minutes still exits?

It died twenty years ago along with Tony Bennett. Apparently victims of Saddam's WMDs.

Makes as much sense as anyone else

Demonstrated is why most books in a library are fiction.

toranokaze · 7/26/2023 1:15 pm

I'm not sure if that is true

tw · 7/26/2023 5:36 pm

Not true in the engineering library. Or medical arts library. Clearly evident in the NY Public Library.

Top ten books checked out in the NY Public library are all fiction. So libraries mostly stock fiction such as:
The Midnight Library
Lessons in Chemistry
The Lincoln Highway
Malibu Rising
People We Meet on Vacation
This Time Tomorrow
The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo
Book Lovers
Verity
It Ends with Us

Five of the lastest purchased books are fiction. That Barbie book is non-fiction:
The Monster's We Defy
The Story of Barbie and the Woman Who Created Her
The Vanished Birds
All That Is Wicked
Mother of Madness
Soil: The Story of a Black Mother's Garden
Chorus
Money, Power, Respect
Good Night, Irene

It comes down to if you count periodicals as books.

Sinead was amazing. Nobody ever called her wishy washy.

griff · 7/27/2023 7:51 pm

Nope, she was all in.
