I'll think on that investment thing, Bear, because I think you could be on to something.

We often joke that Mo has a bright future as an improve comic because of the way he plays with non-specific items more than any kind of toy.

A stick can be anything. A hot wheel is always a car.

Hey!

Act now and get the Stickity Stick IN the Boxity Box.

Two great toys at one low price.

Operators are standing by!

I've thought about packaging this Junior Carpenter Playset that we use all of the time -- styrofoam blocks, golf tees, hammer.

That Stickety Stick idea has legs, Bear. I read, some time ago, a little story about a guy who was selling broom-handles @ .25 cents ea. at a Spring flea market and getting no takers. The guy at the next table finally took pity on him, bought the entire inventory (about a hundred of 'em) for a wholesale discount price, put up a new sign which read "Tomato Plant Stakes .50 Cents ea. While They Last," and sold the entire stock within the hour.

I, too, am usually up at some time between 4 and 5 a.m. That doesn't mean I would ever consider, in my wildest nightmares, getting into a line to buy anything! I won't stand in line to see a first run movie. If the lines are horrendous, I'll come back next day or wait for the video to come out. When the Red Sox were playing in the World Series in my home town not so long ago, there were all-night lines around the block of Fenway Park all night. I thought those people were certfyable and should be hauled off in strait-jackets. I mean, the games were televised, right?

Bear--

Imaginative mayhem is just as tedious as any other expression of rivalry.

At least include bandaids and witch hazel in your Stickity Stick Family Pack.

If kids are gonna beat on each other -- which they will, no matter what you preach -- at least give 'em some class sticks to do it with.

Merry Andrew--

The kids should cut their own sticks--and then return the tools, well-cleaned and oiled.

Agreed, Noddy. But then what happens to our economy, so dependent on adults spending vast sums on entertaining their offspring?

What you lose on the swings, you make up on the roundabouts.
