The Hubbard Memorial Library will be closed on Thursday, June 19 for Juneteenth.
The Hubbard Memorial Library is in the final stages of our historic window restoration project and some library services may be disrupted in the coming weeks. Thank you for your patience as we finish improving the library!
Aside from a delay, there will be no problems. The flight will be smooth, it will land safely. Everyone who gets on the plane will get off. But almost all of them will be forever changed. Because on this ordinary domestic flight, something extraordinary happens. People learn how and when they are going to die. How do they know? There were ostensibly more interesting people on the flight (the bride and groom, the possibly famous woman, the giant Hemsworth-esque guy who looks like a superhero, the frazzled, gorgeous flight attendant) but none would become as famous as 'The Death Lady'. Not a single passenger or crew member will later recall noticing her board the plane. But what she did on that flight was truly remarkable. A few months later, one passenger dies exactly as she predicted. Then two more passengers die, again, as she said they would. Soon no one is thinking this is simply an entertaining story at a cocktail party. If you were told you only had a certain amount of time left to live, would you do things differently? Would you try to dodge your destiny?
