Not in my high school. However, if everybody wants a good laugh out there,
I was stupid and naive enough at the beginning of this year to not know who
Salinger was, I just knew that Catcher was supposed to be excellent.
Anyway, we have a new computer filing system this year, and they put the
wrong author down in the automated card catalog, so every day I went into
the P section of fiction, only to find that Catcher was still out. Then
one day the librarian pointed out my mistake. I felt so stupid choosing my
selection out of the 5 copies we have, especially after I had asked her why
no one had returned their copy of it yet!
I hope you're laughing with me, not at me.
Janet :)
By the way, what's UW Seattle like?
