"...And no opportunity to see more..."

Does this mean you are without transportation? And that you have time available?

If you wish to witness the phenomenon that I described -- the sight of hundreds of seagulls in an avian commuter lane -- be advised that it could be time and weather dependent. I don't know what would be required to repeat the situation, other than morning.

Do I know what is involved in being a librarian? Well, despite the fact that I worked in a library many years ago, in all honesty, no. But I am sure that being a librarian on an interplanetary exploration craft would be different from ... well, anything on Earth.

I imagine it would entail more or less pushing a cart of books and magazines around the spaceship, trying to get people to read them. (The character "Brooks" in the "Shawshank Redemption".)

No, seriously, I am sure that it would be more akin to being a research and communications specialist, but I was honing in on what I thought would be fun during the journey. Oh, by the way, I think I still have my projectionist license from Nerd Central.

If you ever decide to run for office of any kind, you have my vote!

I was so tickled with your poem and photo this afternoon that I was beside myself! I still haven't learned how to save these types of things to Word, but you can rest assured that this is one thing I will keep for as long as I am a FReeper!

Thanks again for your thoughtfulness!
