Tom Sawyer Isle Getting The Axe !?

[Strangler Lewis]

The last time we were there it was closed, but I will miss it if it goes. I always liked it when I was a teenager even if it wasn't as high tech as Pong.

I don't think it's "Kids these days," so much as "Parents these days." So far, our house is GameBoy, X-Box, and Pokemon card free. It's not hard. If they ever come in, they'll be tightly controlled.

I admit to certain prejudices. When my young nephews come over, it's like pulling teeth to get a word out of them. Usually they're buried in their GameBoys. I don't know that it would be meaningfully different if they kept their nose in a book or spent the entire visit playing chess, but somehow I feel that it would.

Hello, Kitty! gives me seizures.

(Salon Kitty is another matter.)
