Just an FYI type of thing to the people who posted on/read my other rant.
What did he hope to do by setting fire to the library?
Anyway, bring on the AACR, the Turabian and…I’m kind of hoping to add some of the LC Subject headings to the punishment…please?
Lsura: No one knows his motivation–I’m thinking it was probably a ‘Beavis-and-Butthead’ type of thing. What a moron.
Oh, and he’s apparently confessed so I don’t think we’re being premature on assuming his guilt (although I admit that I/we could be wrong).
Is that like poetic justice by any chance.
Whoa, you live in Athens@!
Is Ed Tant still around and intermittenly getting his articles published in the Banana-Herald and/or whatever periodical he’s publishing of his own accord at any given moment?
Is Rick the Printer still providing hovels to the countercultural kids at ripoff prices?
Does April Redbird still haunt the place spreading the gospel of American Indian Movement?
Don’t know Rick or April but Ed is still around. He still swings by the Roadhouse every few weeks to get drunk and yell at whichever poor smoe happens to sit down next to him. Actually think the Banner-Herald has him on staff now, as hard as that is to believe (or maybe it’s not–I dunno as I don’t read the damn thing…).
Does the term “librarian justice” make anyone else think of The Tick?
“Evildoer, eat librarian justice!”
File him under the Library of Congress subject heading of “LOSER!”
OK, so maybe there is not such a subject heading, but we can create one for him and his kind.
Well, I can certainly understand why you’d want to go all librarian-poo on this guy.
Ook.
I have this idea… I’m going to get my AACR2 bronzed, then I’m going to mount spikes on it, connect it to a chain and then FLOG this idiot with it.
Based on the photo I suspect that he and books have never really gotten along.
Looks like a young Rick Springfield. Must’ve been pissed about Jessie’s Girl.
He was probably upset about the UGA football team spending all their spare time in the library.
You want to talk stupid arsonists? Paul M. DuBois was charged the arson of an apartment building. The building he lives in. And owes eight grand in back rent for. And was about to be evicted from.
Darn, I want to ask about a restaurant, but I can’t remember the name of it! I just remember they had this odd dipping sauce that cleans pennies VERY well. ~grins~

Well, yeah, but at least this DuBois guy seems to have had some kind of motive that sort of made sense, even if it does prove he’s an idiot.
What possible purpose could this ass have had for torching a library? Was he hoping it would distract people while he robbed the convenience store across the street, or something?
I’m thinking that he should get countless papercuts, be immersed in lemon juice, then dipped in salt.
While I agree with the above punishment, it’s not poetic enough. Arsonists should be lit on fire. They may even enjoy it.
He needs a visit from the Library Policeman while he chews on some licorice.
No. We do that with the LC Subject headings. All five volumes. while making him read the AACR2. Twice.
