Now Here's a Thought (Whose Time Probably Hasn't Come)
Every day, I get to hear the default ringtones of a variety of mobile phone providers go off loudly at the library. I'm thinking that we should make up words to a song about the library to each of them, then the staff can sing them out with the tones. It could be informative, too (Don't forget to SIGN up for summer READing to-DAY-AY-AY!) The goofy esprit de corps might even help us from getting upset/depressed/annoyed by the constant ringing.

There was this GUY who seemed to need to whistle this creepy tune every time he was in the library. Especially if it was quiet. It turns out that the whistle was his ringtone. I think it might have been from some TV show or other, but I am not exactly the most pop-culture-oriented librarian.
I know that one! Kind of sad and mournful? Like maybe out of a western? Or maybe some noir hero in a black-and-white show from the fifties, "in the endless foggy night of despair, one man stands guard over the sleeping city..." Queue whistling.
Or is it "cue?"
That's the one!
