I’ve been working on a bunch of books from Ethiopia. As I was tooling around Classification Web, looking for an appropriate subject and call number for one of them, I had a weird disconnect. I’d settled on Occupations–Ethiopia, which was fine. Only, when I went to find a call number to go with my nice, shiny, new subject, my brain suddenly decided that occupations–something that two seconds before it had understood perfectly well to mean jobs–were something of the military invasion variety. For a moment, I was confused to find myself in the HBs (economic theory and demography). That’s not the funny part, though. When I went back to the book, I had a “What the hell does this have to do with military invasions?!” moment.

Also, this is Milton’s fault, oh yes, it is.
