Where's My Zydeco's Carry-Out Bag, Boss Lady?

Glad to hear that last night's library fundraiser at Zydeco's Restaurant in beautiful historic downtown Mooresville, Indiana, was a glorious success.  Many thanks to our wonderful patrons who visited the restaurant, and, of course, to the folks at Zydeco's for their fabulous food and great support of our Library.

We have some cool photos taken by one of my minions.

I wanted to include a photo of Programma Mama and Anime/Manga Gal, but AMG threatened bodily injury if I uploaded it.  She's one tough cookie, so we'll just pass on that picture.

Fun times and grand food were enjoyed by all, EXCEPT, and this is the crucial point, for moi.  Where's my take-out bag, Boss Lady?  I waited around outside the back of Zydeco's (by the dumpster) for hours, and nobody showed with my midnight snack!  In a word, I was bummed.

Hoping to Get Some Zydeco's Carry-Out Really Soon,

P.S.  Here is some Zydeco Cajun music from New Orleans, according to the YouTube caption (2009).  How much more appropriate of a musical closer could I get?

BigBash Fundraising Bookmark

Remember when I blogged about the bigbash library fundraiser at Zydeco's Restaurant on Wednesday, August 3, 2011?  Boss Lady wanted a bookmark to distribute to our patrons.  Make it so, I said, but not back to Boss Lady; I've got minions, you know.

In a flash, we had bookmarks!

 

 

The best part of the bookmark is on the back (p. 2), which is my part, of course.

Great work, Minions!  Here's a treat.  It's not so stale.  Try pouring some water over it.  Works for slobberdog gravy chow.

P.S.  "The Fishin' Hole" (1960), which was the theme song to The Andy Griffith Show, had lyrics, although viewers never heard them (the only vocal part was whistled.)  The music was composed by Earle Hagen and Herbert Spencer; the lyrics were written by Everett Sloane.  (Earle Hagen performed the whistling.)  Here is Andy Griffith himself singing the lyrics to what is probably the most famous television theme song of all time.

Great Food and Philanthropy

What better way to support Mooresville Public Library than to eat great food? Well, you have to pay, but it's philanthropy when a portion of proceeds go directly to support the Library.  I speak, of course, of the upcoming Fundraising Night (Wednesday, August 3, 2011) at Zydeco's Restaurant in historic downtown Mooresville, Indiana.  Our latest issue of MPL Bookmark, the official Library newsletter, has the goods.

This will be the premiere fun-raising event of the season, to be sure, so you won't want to miss it.  Maybe Boss Lady and Broadway Gal will do the limbo dance! Chiropractors will be standing by, Boss Lady.

Actually, I don't think they'll be doing the Limbo Dance at the fun-raiser, but it would be worth seeing.  Eat great food, support your local library--what's not to like?  We hope to see you there.

P.S.  Here is one of our program trailers reminding everyone to support her/his local libraries.  There are three versions of this video (with three different soundtracks by The Music Man), but this is the most popular.  You may watch all three on the MPL YouTube Channel.
