That definitely works, too, Walt. Beanie Babies came to mind because any time I do a house de-clutter I come across at least one cache of BBs, from Miss 16's multi-year BB mania.

No, I kinda like 'em. Just it was like one day, no textured tights, the next day, many textured tights.

- jambina
They're in.
- tab thinks you're awesome
They're hot.
- Liam Sullivan
jambina: they're definitely "back". all the clonegirls at MPOW have been wearing uggs, tights, and a tunic since the fall. I really can't tell them apart most days. You probably pull it off in a much more distinctive fashion than that.
- DJF
DJF: No. Black Fluevog boots, black textured tights, black pleated mini skirt, olive green shirt, black jacket. I like any color as long as it's drab.
- laura x
laura, If I saw that outfit, I'd probably call them "leggings" rather than tights. It's all about the whole outfit, and around here, "tights" are generally considered to be all one needs to wear on the bottom.
- DJF
Tights are not pants. But yeah, I prefer textured tights to plain ones, especially if I'm wearing a somewhat conservative outfit.
- cecily
ugh, what Cecily said: tights are not pants. or they shouldn't be, at least.
- holly
I blame Lindsay Lohan.
- cecily
djf - if "distinctive fashion" = ZOMG WOMAN THAT IS A LOT OF COLOUR YOU ARE WEARING then yes.
- jambina
jambina, I've seen how you dress normally, and that's never been my reaction to your outfits.
- DJF
Tights are not pants. Leggings do not have full feet.
- Rachel Walden
rachel, good point about the leggings. I never see anybody's feet because the girls all wear uggs, so I don't know if they're tights or leggings.
- DJF
For me, "tights" means "woollen stockings". And I really wish/hope they'll get popular because they're wonderful in winter and at the moment you can buy any colour as long as it's black or blue.

bad kissing is the worst. THE. WORST.
- Mary Carmen
I like the sex plenty. but there's something very awesome about a good makeout session. And not to toot my own horn, but i've been told that I am somewhat gifted in this area. but maybe they were just being nice. but my ex girlfriend told me that I should teach a college course in making out. so i got that going for me....which is nice.

Yep. Although I think I like it best when the hot kissing leads to hot sex and continues during hot sex. #hotinhere

Joe, get on that!
- Mary Carmen
my one source of makeouts doesn't like to kiss (beyond a quick smooch on the lips) anymore. not since she got pregnant with our first child...in late 2004. :(
- Joe Silence is not Santa
I miss the days of hot makeout sessions and heavy petting. It's like as adults we just kind of zoom right past it and head for the sex as quickly as possible. I would be more than content to just make out with a guy for hours on end. It's hard to find a guy who agrees (and is also attracted to me LOL)

I loved it too, once I saw it as an adult. at 8 or 9 (when I saw it the first time), I think I was a wee bit too young to understand what was going on. A parent took a group of her daughter's friends to the movies for her birthday, and she chose an R-rated movie.

Does your library have a policy for what to do when a patron leaves behind a flash drive with no name or identifying details on it? Do you load the drive and attempt to identify (and then notify) the patron from the files on the drive?
We have no policy, but that's what we do if nobody comes to claim it within a day or so.
- lris' ghost
Ditto.
- s t e v e
I'm particularly interested in academic-library contexts, but other types of library policies are welcome too. Our increasingly-large pile of orphaned flash drives thanks you!
- Catherine Pellegrino
Whoa, two responses before I'd even posted my follow-up comment! Thanks, Steve and Iris.
- Catherine Pellegrino
Also, I'm going to check with campus IT to see what they do for flash drives found in the public computer labs.
- Catherine Pellegrino
Catherine - at UTC we opened a doc file or two to see if we can glean a name, and then we tag it with the name and email the student. Here at NCSU we just toss it in a lost & found drawer, as far as I know.
- Archangel ωαřмaiden
I think we had a thread on this before (started by Andrew?) Seems perverse not to do this. If they were that freaked out about privacy, they shouldn't have put their sensitive junk on a flash drive in the first place.
- s t e v e
999 people out of 1,000 would thank you for looking for their name in the docs. The 1,000th can deal.
- s t e v e
Also, in an academic context it's usually pretty easy to spot papers written for a class, and those papers have a pretty good chance of having a name right there at the top of the first page, so we rarely see anything "sensitive." At least, I never have.
- lris' ghost
Yep, that's pretty much what we're doing - we'll hold it for a day or so, and if nobody claims it, poke as carefully as we can into the contents to see if we can find the owner's name. Often we don't even have to open files to get at this info: filenames are sufficient.
- Catherine Pellegrino
yep, i asked before. pretty much what steve and iris have said were the consensus and it's what we still do. if they aren't claimed after like 2 months i think we wipe the drive of everything
- Sir Shuping
A lot of those things are done at our library. And if it can't be identified or isn't claimed, they're wiped and given out to the next person who says "do you have a flash drive I can use?"
- Liam Sullivan
we also look at the files and try to identify/notify the owner. if unclaimed (after *several* months), we reformat it and either use them or loan them out.
- ~Courtney F.
Thanks, all, this is super-helpful. Right now we're looking at just delivering all flash drives to the 24-hr (staffed) computer lab in the library basement, since IT is telling us that most drives there get claimed. At least this way, we'll have a consistent policy to tell students when they come to the desk looking for their lost drive.
- Catherine Pellegrino
If you found a wallet, would you poke around inside to see if you could find identifying information? I think it would be the same for a flash drive. Would be owner be more upset about (a) losing all those documents/term papers or (b) having you know his/her/its name & info?
- Betsy (bentley) Vera
(I mention wallets because I've found four of them while walking the dog. None were stolen, they had all fallen out of bags of pockets. Most were found within half a block of the owner's house (one was in the snow right outside the door). The exception was the one from a security guard, but I found it on his/her patrol route. That one included driver's license, credit cards, firearms license, work ID, social security card, and birth certificate (!). If I'd wanted a new identity, I'd been all set.)
- Betsy (bentley) Vera
this thread should go in the next LSW zine since the theme is gonna be lost and found ...
- Laura Norvig
I'd rather put the contents of some of those drives in the zine. :)
- s t e v e
finders keepers, losers weepers!
- Laura Norvig
We look for files - ideally one which says "Contact details in case of lost and found!" which a few people have, otherwise assignments/course notes/CVs (er, that's New Zealandish for "resumes") etc. No-one's complained. By contrast, we once had someone ask if we could email the entire college student population to ask if anyone had found and could return it.
