At the Library (That’s a Green Day Reference) Santa Fe’s libraries actually have insanely stacked events calendars—here’s a little taste We know that most folks tend to want to party all the time and rock and roll all day and every night and all that, but we’re forever in awe of just how many free events pop off at Santa Fe’s three public libraries—and pretty much everything we’ve seen is free.

The regular checkout lines are long and the express lane is empty. You count fourteen small items, two over the posted limit. A shopper approaches behind you carrying a single carton of milk as the cashier waves you forward.

Are small rules optional when enforcing them would seem fussier than breaking them?
