Not much to be said, but these were central to every one of my childhood summers. Sometimes my neighbour would keep a whole one to herself, rather than breaking it in half and sharing, and I thought she was horrible for that.
Anybody see the episode of Mad Men where Peggy comes up with an ad campaign for popsicles?
A long time ago, I sent Hasbro my idea for a variation of Bop It. It was called **** It. It was similar to Bop It, only instead of bopping, you would have to do things like **** it, **** it, **** ******* it with your ****, and ********* **** ** ******* ********* apple sauce ***** ****** ** *****ing ***** it. I still haven’t heard back.

Maurice Sendak, best known for the classic children’s book Where the Wild Things Are, said, as a child, he was inspired to become a writer and illustrator by Disney’s Fantasia. (Fantasia only inspired me to do drugs.) Though he’s most famous for Wild Things Are, Maurice Sendak was also the illustrator for the Little Bear series.
Have you guys seen the new Where the Wild Things Are film yet? It’s fantastic. When asked if the movie is too scary for kids, Sendak told parents that they could “go to hell.” Win.
