I had an ETCHASKETCH, but as I've mentioned, I don't see much point in it. I also had TWISTER, MRPOTATOHEAD, SILLYPUTTY, a RUBIKSCUBE and PLAYDOH (along with the press that Horace mentions). I currently own a "ROSSPEROT for President" lawn sign which I hang in my garage. It originally belonged to my maternal grandmother. I enjoyed the inclusion of BROCAS area in the fill, reminding me of Carl Sagan's book "Broca's Brain: Reflections on the Romance of Science," which I read a couple of times in my teens; I'd probably enjoy it even more now. Definitely a fun Sunday, and it took me just the right amount of time to solve.Huygenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14539030936919012404noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7869983234842507044.post-20714197517766825702020-12-20T15:18:55.346-05:002020-12-20T15:18:55.346-05:00Whee!

Also SILLY PUTTY which can do so many things, like bounce, and pick up images from the comics, and S T R E T C H and SNAP! CANDY LAND I've played as an (ahem) "adult" and yes, yes, ETCH-A-SKETCH! I had a TRESSY doll -- I'll bet she's what your sister had. Her hair pulled out and pushed back in so you could have fun fussing with it. "Short. Long. Or In-Between. Tressy's Hair Makes Her a Queen!" (That's how the commercial went.) And MR. POTATO HEAD! <br /><br />(Did I mention that I enjoyed this puzzle?) :-)Kelly Clarknoreply@blogger.com
