When I read The Odyssey in school my teacher brought in the Wishbone episode. High school kids now are probably too young to remember Wishbone, but we were ALL excited about it.
The money was too good. I got stupid.

There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

Oh and Steph, I finally got the new Skullduggery book, hand delivered by my bro! He had originally planned to come and visit when it came out but his trip got postponed and he didn't want to spoil the surprise of him just showing up with it. He told me that I'd better appreciate him flying 6000 miles for delivery - he's a dork!
I probably won't be able to start it until next week but I plan on it being my entertainment for the long weekend. So I should report back soon.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I was too old for Wishbone but I love him anyway.

Excellent. I'm still all flaily about something that happened, and need to talk about it.

I was a little bit too old for Wishbone too, I think. But I remember watching it all the time. There are quite a few classics I still only know anything about because I saw the Wishbone episode.

I totally love Wishbone but was an adult when I picked it up.

I was also an adult who loved Wishbone! And his little costumes!

I know! One of my dogs looked like him, too. Cutest thing ever.

The rerun Wishbone on my PBS at some weird time on weekends, and Casper (now 7) just loves it.

I can't remember if I've mentioned this, but this year I taught (and read) Invisible Man for the first time. Holy shit. Ellison? AMAZING. This is definitely on my best book list. Anyone read it?
