No one asked permission to put my house on the cover like that......
This is what I was trying to write:
LOL, Braja, shame on that book publisher!
How come I've never heard of scented crayons?
I love Billy Joel! He's my favorite. Thanks for the tidbit about him.
How have I existed till now without knowing about the date of the scented crayons?!
1743 for the first ads? Wow--didn't even know they made magazines back then.
Very interesting post, Angie. I really enjoy historical trivia. Come on over to Cajun Country, I have another award for you, sha!
PHST: You've been sheltered! Please remedy immediately. :)
You're welcome, Lazy. His was one of the best concerts I ever saw...back in the Stone Age.
jinksy: we learn as we go. LOL
Terri: Me either. I just love trivia.
Thanks, Marguerite. Ooo on the award. Be right over!
scented crayons!! I remember those!
so that's why i was taken to the emergency unit when i sniffed the crayons dislodging one of them in my nostrils
Scented crayons and Mein Kampf in the same space makes me dizzy.
