Daily Thoughts 07/12/2012
I read some more of Thomas Jefferson's Creme Brulee on the train to work. It is very much the story of Thomas Jefferson's table. The book describes a number of political dinners with important figures in French and American history including John Adams. It also describes Jefferson's habit of eating lots of vegetables.
This morning I checked the displays and the gift books. I also updated the Facebook and Twitter accounts. I spent a little more time looking over the website statistics.
I put the book Chimera by T.C. McCarthy on hold. It is military science fiction. A chimera is a mix of different animals.
We had the Computer Lab open today between 2:00 p.m. and 4:00 p.m.
The book, Existence by David Brin has come in for me to read. It is a science fiction book.
