Some Mondays are busier than others. Sometimes we have school board meetings and City Council meetings and Ferndale Middle School choir concerts. Sometimes we just have zombie movies at the Ferndale Public Library.

Unfortunately, there was a faulty hose in the mechanical room and the library was flooded on Friday. The good news is none of the collection was damaged (except for several books in the Ferndale Friends library bookstore), the bad news is the library will be closed for a few more days while a disaster recovery firm cleans up the hundreds of gallons of water.

So the regularly scheduled Undead Movie Mondays will not be happening this week. If you're looking for a movie, you don't have to look far. The Loving Touch will be playing Apocalypse Now (Redux Edition) starting at 9:30 p.m. If that's not your thing, you can play big-screen Nintendo for free.

If you want some live entertainment, not interested in Nintendo or a chubby Marlon Brando, head north to the Ringwald Theatre for a Who Wants Cake? production of Christmas on Mars.

Nothing too crazy, no board meetings, no public forums. This week's Monday isn't as mad as it usually is. So we're going to use this space to recap what happened over the weekend as well as a look ahead to next Monday's school board public forum.

Over the long weekend, Ferndale was involved in some violent activity.

Dec. 6: Public Forum for School Board Terms Increase

The Ferndale Board of Education has proposed moving elections to November and increasing terms to six years. This was a contentious issue at the Nov. 15 school board meeting. To make the change, however, the school board needs to hold a public meeting. That meeting will be Dec. 6 at 5:30 p.m. at the Harding Administration Building.

And that's what's up.
