Friday Fun
Those of you who are members of my Yahoo group, CE_Current_Awareness, are familiar with my habit of searching for strange and quirky things to amuse you on Fridays. I thought it would be a good idea to capture some of these items for this blog, so I looked through that group’s archives and made a list of some of the more memorable Friday Fun links. I will add all the new Friday Fun postings to this list. – Anne T-V
