So Late

If you’ve ever had to pay a fine for a late library book don’t feel too badly about it. This book was overdue by 145 years.
YES 145 YEARS!!!!

The book has been missing since 1964. According to a release from Washington and Lee University communications office, the book might qualify as “perhaps the longest overdue library book in history.”

Lucky for the person the Library saw fit to waive the late fees because at the current rate of $1 a day for 145 years would come out to $52,858. WHOA!

Maybe its time to check under the bed for those stray books…..
