Answering questions at Boston College O’Neill Library
Yes! Campus Counseling Services (http://bit.ly/BCCounselingSvcs) is set up for that, and Campus Ministry offers pastoral counseling if you’re interested in a religious angle on those sorts of conversations.(http://bit.ly/bc-campus-ministry)
No need to apologize. Not knowing means you get to ask a question, and libraries exist for people with questions. And I must say, as the Answer Wall, I especially enjoy people with questions.

I assume we’re not referring to the Bintec Router Redundancy Protocol or Bohemian Reformation and Religious Practice so pardon me! (or you?)

My, that looks like a frazzled Christmas ornament. I’m glad you took a break to communicate with me. Hope it helped! And I hope you will be done with finals and exams soon, so you can devote your energies to more pleasant things, such as having a happy holiday season and a wonderful semester break!
My helpers have asked about cats, small rodents, lizards… a whole menagerie! We were led to understand that the university prefers we stick to dogs. I know it’s not quite like actually having a purr-machine in your lap, but here are some kittens:
It’s to make it possible for people who can’t open the doors themselves to use all the same entrances as everyone else. BC is a tough campus for people with mobility issues, we want to make it a little easier.
Oh! Do you speak Wall? I hardly ever meet anyone in the general population who does…
You can check the World Population Clock at the US Census at bit.ly/LikeRabbitzzz. It’s a little bit terrifying. Currently 7,538,712,054… wait, no, now it’s 7,538,712,155…
Because they are so VERY cool.
Whales? Wonderful creatures. I have not seen one myself but I understand there are cruises that take you humans out on the ocean to look for them. And listening to whales is an amazing experience (even if just on a video). The NOAA has some information at bit.ly/noaa-whales about the many different kinds of whales. The Smithsonian has a fascinating article about Noc, a beluga whale who was captured and became part of a Navy program: bit.ly/noc-whale And of course the Libraries have books and articles (just type whales in the search box on the home page to see some of them).
Whew! We made it through this week’s Wednesday, don’t have to worry about them for a while. Maybe it would help to plan something nice that you do every Wednesday to dispel the Wednesday miseries, a small thing you can look forward to every week?
OK, not sure why, but will remember KURT. Or are you speaking to KURT? Presumably, he will know what you’re attempting to have him remember. Unless he’s already forgotten it. Or is KURT the name of the skunk in the mods?
Gotta admit it. I’m a total sucker for bunnays, kittehs, doggos and all the cute little critters of the world.
The Wall knows at least one human who does that for fun rather than protest. Big Sock is tricky, though. If you have the socks to mismatch they’ve already got you. I’d think that any serious assault on the sockopoly would have to include learning to darn.
I like this reply.

You mean, as in “cold-blooded witch”? I think that’s just a common insult. There’s no mention of it in our Greenhaven Encyclopedia of Witchcraft. If you’d like to dig a little deeper our works on the occult have call numbers between BF 1404 and 2055, or you could try this search to start: bit.ly/bc-witches
