Can’t remember if I saw Star Wars on opening day, but I have a very clear memory of shooting tie fighters out of the back of the station wagon in a pouring Miami thunderstorm on the way home. Then seeing it six more times in the theater

If I come across this movie, I will watch it to the end no matter what. As a person with the last name of Houston, its most famous line has haunted me since the movie was released.

My six year old discovered my complete Calvin and Hobbes, and is now learning to read it. Calvin may not be the best role model, but he does love Spaceman Spiff.

Bookending my birthday are Kramer Vs Kramer, Friday the 13th and The Empire Strikes Back, (not the happiest ending for SW movie). Not sure I like this game.

Highly recommend the documentary “Wick is Pain” for some interesting back story to the production.

I would very much enjoy a Peter Sagal hosted re-reading podcast of the Aubrey/Maturin series.

Wish Spotify and Apple Music had a toggle to flip when the small person is in the car with me. Not that there’s anything wrong with Caspar Babypants.

Seconded. The children’s museum right there is really unique.

I think living with a ton of old tech displayed in my home has helped my 6 year old with this. He knows what to do with an old phone. He still calls a typewriter a computer, but we'll get to that.

I love when the now pic has so much in common with the 100 year old one. Everything around it may have changed, but the house is still there.

News Literacy Project
The News Literacy Project works with educators and journalists to give students the skills they need to discern fact from fiction and to know what to trust.

This has been the desktop on my computer for over a year. Gives me a nice mental break to see it so often during a work day.

Since it seems we are close to birthday twins (down to the year), perhaps you'll share what you think are the best seats there, because the ones I had the last time I visited that particular theater weren't it...

That's the loudest I've heard a crowd actually SING the words of the national anthem in a long time. Kind of nice.
