We're Through the Looking Glass Here, People

This "Through the Looking Glass" pamphlet should have been subtitled "How to Fat-Shame Your Teenage Daughter".  Look at her. SHE'S IN TEARS!!!!

Rule the School


With school back in session, it's a good time to review some common sense rules you can apply in your daily life, even if you're not in school.  This ruler lays down the rules.

Back to School

It's back to school time once again. These days, kids go packed off literally packed.  Even the youngest carry book bags nearly as big as themselves.

When I was a kid, I was lucky to start off with a box of Crayolas (the 16-pack, not even the 48 or heaven forbid the 64) and a pencil.  If you were really fortunate (and I never was), you got to start off with one of these.

What was on TV August 7th through 13th, 1982

Picking up the week after our last TV Guide post is this week in 1982's TV Guide featuring Carroll O'Connor and Denise Miller.


With the success of the ABC's recent "Live in Front of a Studio Audience: Norman Lear's All in the Family", the network has just announced two more specials.  Hopefully the network won't decide to do "Live in Front of a Studio Audience: Norman Lear's Archie Bunker's Place".

How Nancy Drew Me In

Never let it be said this isn't an EOB (Equal Opportunity Blog).  I previously blogged about The Hardy Boys after picking up a few of their adventures a while back. Now it's time to give their female counterpart her day.

I found these Nancy Drew Mystery Stories at a garage sale a few weeks ago.  I'm not sure which of these covers is "off-model", but Nancy looks different in every one, even with different colored hair. Will the real Nancy Drew please stand up?
