Post Script

Apropos of my last posting, I should mention that I'd also like to teach the world to sing in perfect harmony.

Childhood Memories

Over dinner tonight the whole family was trading memories of favorite childhood TV shows. Even though the youngest member of our household is 10 years old, he has enough distance from the "old" shows he used to watch (BOB THE BUILDER, THE WIGGLES, BEAR IN THE BIG BLUE HOUSE) to participate!

The 16 year old reminisced about SESAME STREET, BIG COMFY COUCH, BETWEEN THE LIONS, and (yes, it's true!) BARNEY!

I bring this up because EK and I both share special memories of one particular 1970s show. In fact, we both decided that it formed our love for social studies, geography, and culture. And it probably also made us politically and socially liberal!

So, who else remembers THE BIG BLUE MARBLE??
