Velcro Gets Library Patron Ejected

Posted by on February 11, 2008 at 6:21 am.

…well, it COULD have.  I didn’t realize how much velcro was on my laptop bag until I sat down to unpack at Chelsea’s new McKune Memorial Library.  Crrruuunch.  RRrrriiiipp.  I had to make the decision to rip fast, rather than pulling it off slowly. The slow approach would have prolonged the deafening sound – due to a strip that is about 12 inches long on the front flap.  I  had enough mind to leave the velcro UN-done, so as to not go through the ordeal when I went to pack up again.

    I’m right there with ya! Been there, done that. Whoever invented velcro should be praised, then smacked.
    Cheers!

    Hey Sue! Glad to know I’m not alone – or that there really ARE other considerate people out there. (Unlike the library patron who just took a cell phone call on HANDS FREE!).
