  1. We’re revealing our age when we reference “grandparents” living through the Great Depression :) These young whippersnappers these days would have to check with their great-grandparents!

  2. To be honest, my PARENTS remembered the Great Depression, but I didn’t really want to put that in the post!

  3. I love the CYOA books! I just found my cache of them at my parent’s house… I wonder why there aren’t more of them today… It seems they have gone the way of text based games for the PC… First person shooters are fun, but I miss Tex Murphy.

  4. Ah, you check Polymeme, too! You added Web Urbanist to my check-regularly list, but I found Polymeme on my own (I think!).
