03: Video: I used to love them myths. That stuff was deep.

[Omar's kept his promise, and in the days since his last conversation with Leslie, he's been haunting the library, doing a lot of browsing. For being, well, a riotous gangster-slash-angel of vengeance, he's actually a very good library patron: quiet, polite, keeps mostly to himself.

And finally, he's found a book. He's sitting in the fifth floor common room, next to the shark tank, the book loosely held atop his lap, cover unseen.]

Now Barge, y'all don't know me like my warden do, so maybe y'all don't know that I've got me a real appreciation for the written word. But Leslie Knope want to encourage that in me, I suppose, so she gone and named me co-captain of the new Barge Book Club. Or something like that. I gets to pick the first book, anyway.

So now I'm left with two questions for y'all:

One, who be wanting to join up?

And two, who already got a copy of this? [And now he holds it up: 50 Shades of Grey, by E.L. James.] I hear it get real popular in the future.

[He hasn't actually read it, either. Not the whole thing, anyway.

He's read just enough to know it's perfect.]

Well, you go on, you take a look. When we meet up, you think?

[Omar, that is disappointing. Reading is pretty much the only common ground you and your warden share :(]

I am thinking this Wednesday. My afternoon is clear, how about yours?

[omar]

That enough time to get all our new readers up to speed?

[lesliemonster]

Well, I wanted to give the slower readers a chance to catch up. Do you think I'm being too patronizing?

[omar]

Settle some, warden. I was thinking Saturday might be a little more fair-minded toward them slower crowd.
