The following appears in the Feb. 3rd issue of Forbes:

Some People Just Have Too Much Time
On its kids-oriented Barbie Web site, Mattel (nyse: MAT - news - people
) posted a tongue-in-cheek poll about careers for the 43-year-old,
1-billion-copy teenager doll. Adults took this seriously. Librarians,
for example, put messages on Internet trade message boards urging
colleagues to vote for their profession over, say, architect or cop.
--W.P.B.

Is it just me or is anyone else insulted by the implication that
librarians "just have too much time"?

Food for thought...
