This is a way of making myself write something coherent and grammatically correct almost every day. I'm opinionated and need an outlet. I'm also prone to flights of fancy. Thanks for stopping by. |
| Yikes! I went to the toy store last night and I was shocked. True, there were no toy guns anywhere. But there was a proliferation of swords and knives. And toy caskets! The 18 inch caskets come with a handle and they're for toy vampires. When did children start playing with caskets and vampires? What has happened to the world? Guns are out, but death and the undead are in! And there's a whole series of "Monster High" dolls, including Venus the Fly Trap girl. They have sexy figures, trendy clothing, and fangs. Weird. How can parents be so choosy about some toys, but not others? The dolls are very popular I'm told with elementary school children. So, it's not okay to play soldier or cowboy, but you can play blood-sucking creatures who only cheat and deceive innocent victims, but who are sexy and cool while they do it. What strange values we have in our culture. I think I'll stick with crayons, hula hoops, books, and balls. |
