Maryland Library Workers Stunned After Discovering Ancient “Pink Floyd” CD in the Return Box
There are many things that library workers expect to find in the return box: overdue books, tattered magazines, and maybe the occasional old DVD. But workers at a library in Maryland were in for a real shock when they found a Pink Floyd CD that had been checked out way back in 1989. Yes, you read that right: 1989. Apparently, the person who checked out the CD forgot it existed for three decades.
The news of this startling discovery has sent shockwaves through the library community. Some librarians are saying that they’ve never heard of anything quite so ridiculous happening in their entire careers. “I mean, really, who forgets a Pink Floyd CD?” said one librarian we spoke to. “It’s not like it’s some obscure local band. This is Pink Floyd we’re talking about. Dark Side of the Moon? The Wall? These are classic albums that stand the test of time. It’s hard to believe that someone could just forget they had one in their possession.”
As it turns out, the CD in question was one of Pink Floyd’s lesser-known albums, titled A Momentary Lapse of Reason. It’s unclear why the person who checked it out never bothered to return it, or why they didn’t even notice it was missing from their collection for thirty years. Some library workers are speculating that the person may have been abducted by aliens or suffered a severe head injury that caused them to forget all about their beloved Pink Floyd album.
This bizarre story has garnered quite a bit of attention online, with music lovers and library enthusiasts alike chiming in with their theories and opinions. Many people are calling for the library to launch a full-scale investigation to track down the person who checked out the CD and demand some answers. Others are suggesting that the library should display the ancient artifact in a special exhibit for all to see. Still, others are simply marveling at the fact that a Pink Floyd CD managed to evade detection for so long.
In the end, the story of the long-lost Pink Floyd CD serves as a cautionary tale to music lovers everywhere: always keep tabs on your CDs, folks. You never know when one might disappear into the ether, only to resurface decades later in a library return box. And to whoever forgot about their Pink Floyd album for thirty years: we hope you’re enjoying catching up on all the music you’ve missed.
