Between 2010 and 2019, Cauli Le Chat (2006?-2020), feline roving reporter for Mooresville Public Library (Mooresville, Indiana), reported all things interesting to cats (and humans) happening at the library. Related stories from across the state (and beyond) were also included.
I recently blogged about our new Wowbrary email newsletter. If you sign-up, you'll know about our latest books, movies, and music before most other folks. That means you can place holds on them (the items, not the folks) early, so you'll be able to check-out stuff sooner. After all, those books (and other materials) won't just sit quietly on the shelves waiting for you to meander into the stacks. Our promo trailer elaborates.

Fans of the television series Mystery Science Theater 3000 (MST3K) (1988-1999) will immediately recognize this movie quote: "Wowie-wow-wow!" (Apologies to Arch Hall, Jr.). Need a further hint?
Yep. Pretty Much.
The dialogue ("Watch out for snakes!" and "Wowie-wow-wow!") comes from MST3K episode #506, Eegah!(1962), a "monster movie" in which teen rocker Tom Nelson (played by Arch Hall, Jr.) reacts to his well-dressed girlfriend, Roxy Miller (played by Marilyn Manning) by speaking the "Wowie" line. The film revolves around a prehistoric giant (played by Richard Kiel). For the uninitiated, MST3K riffed bad movies like this (i.e., made jokes while the movie was playing).
Anyway, I mention the line because my Library now has Wowbrary. (All together now.) Wowie-wow-wow! See, it's fun to say and hear. Well, maybe not so much.

Now you will know all the great new books, movies, and music that we add to our catalog each week. I think Arch Hall, Jr. would approve.

P.S. Here's the famous "watch out for snakes!" line from Eegah! (1962), as riffed by the MST3K gang. (Visit the official MST3K YouTube Channel for more fun film riffing.)
P.P.S. Here's Arch Hall, Jr. (playing the character Tom Nelson) in the movie Eegah! (1962), singing to Marilyn Manning (playing his girlfriend, Roxy Miller). It's heavily riffed in the MST3K version, but this clip was taken from the original. It's kinda sweet, in a teenager-kind of way. Teen audiences who saw this film over 50 years ago could relate.
