ANYWAY, did you know there's an extension you can put on Chrome that will connect with your local library system and when you go look at a book, say on AMZ, it will tell you if that book exists in the library system and if it's available? It's literally called Library Extension.

Simon Harris agrees we should "introduce some sort of regulation to remove trees that are within approx. 30m of roads, power lines or communication lines." Christ. Just when you think it can't get any worse in the most scalped country in Europe, they think this up. www.thejournal.ie/labour-ivana...
