Returning to the Golden Age of Television

That's right, I said Golden Age and that can mean only one thing: Nickelodeon in the 1990s. Yep, I was a kid and you guys were babies/not even born. Seriously though, the 90s were home to some really awesome television: Salute Your Short, Clarissa Explains It All, Hey Dude, Are You Afraid of the Dark and many more. The show we're going to be watching this Friday is called the Adventures of Pete and Pete, which is about 2 brothers named Pete, their family (dad who is obsessed with the lawn, and mom who has a metal plate in her head that picks up radio signals!), friends (Artie the Strongest Man in the World, Ellen, and Nona F. Mecklenberg who wears a cast because she likes scratching the annoying itch) and their antics in Wellsville.

For some more info on the show, check out the wiki: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Adventures_of_Pete_&_Pete

And now for some pictures:

And next week, I'm putting together a really awesome scavenger hunt. And not your regular, boring scavenger hunt.

See you in the library,

Zaki Con 2019: Cosplay Contest!

The final event of Zaki Con is our cosplay contest. I assume you're familiar with cosplay if you're reading, but just in case you aren't: cosplay is " the practice of dressing up as a character from a movie, book, or video game, especially one from the Japanese genres of manga and anime." And anyone can do it! Young and old alike are adorable when dressing as their favorite characters from books, movies, and anime! At Zaki Con, we want to see your interpretation of cosplay! You can enter as one person or as a group (though groups will have to share prizes if they win). All you have to do is come dressed as your favorite character. Since Zaki Con is a family event and it is held in the public library, all costumes must be appropriate for our setting and audience! Entries will be judged by a panel of judges from the library and the community. We look forward to seeing your cosplays during the Con and at the contest which will be held at 5:00pm on Saturda

Duct Tape Pencil Bag

1. Gather supplies. 2. Unwrap one length of duct tape and carefully set plastic bag on top. Go slowly so there are no air bubbles in the duct tape! 3. Unwrap other color of duct tape and tape the opposite side of the bag. 4. Trim extra duct tape off. 5. Continue adding duct tape (You can do all one color on each side or alternate like I did. Trim sides so everything is even. 6. Optional, if you want to store your pencil bag in your binder, mark where the rings are located. 6. Use a hole punch to make holes. 7. Decorate with stickers or permanent markers!
