I love seeing the old photos of carting dogs - here’s part of my shelf at work with what I’ve collected for myself!

Maybe the exclusivity can shift to sticker club getting the stickers first and everyone else waiting 6-12 mos for the opportunity to buy a special release of past sticker club stickers. They could be inflated pricing to maintain the club specialness, and club members could buy extras for a % off

I was maybe 11 the first time I was made aware of this bed type (described in a book) and it was called a truckle bed so that’s the name lodged in my brain, but now I see it more often referred to as a trundle bed - is the name choice more regional or era related? Or both? Do you know?

My Russian prof was easily derailed during lecture and one memorable day took 20 min to give us a recipe and instructions for making our own fireworks

Who wants to bet that the kids will be steered to doing something like ice admin work for their “community service” - the beginnings of starting youth paramilitary group?

My kiddo had a teacher a few years ago that only taught Roald Dahl books for lit all year - kiddo had been great reader but quit reading for fun after that year. The whole class kept pointing out all the things that don’t hold up in Dahl, but she moved them through 4 or 5 of his books anyway

I read the Gormenghast novels about 20 years ago - it took me over a year to finish. The copy I read belongs to a friend and he’d made all kinds of margin notes and I added to it. I think it’s time to read it again and pass it back!

I read all these to my kiddo - such a great series!

I have my mom’s copy of this book and was able to get it signed by Peter Beagle at a special screening of the movie about 10 or so years ago!

I’m finally starting to wind down after 35+ years but I’m still blindsided by the hormonal headache. Every. Month.
