My wife says I have no inner child; it’s all on the surface. I never underwent a second childhood; I’m still in my first. I consider myself to be a child of God with the emphasis on the child part.
I remember when I sent for the Atomic Bomb ring with a Kix box-top and fifteen cents. The ring cleverly combined the Lone Ranger’s silver bullet iconography with that of the new atomic sciences. And it did indeed work: the ""bomb" was actually a device called a spinthariscope, which enables the viewer to see nuclear disintegrations caused by the interaction of radioisotopes. As polonium alpha particles struck a zinc sulfide screen, brilliant flashes of light resulted which could be seen by removing the red end cap.

What’s the point of being an adult if you can’t be a little childish once in a while?

And I would not have it any other way.

That’s a good thing to do, once in a while. Remembering there were joyful times before all the adult rules, keeps one relatively sane.

you know what was really cool?….those cool toys they used to stuff inside those boxes of sugar-laden cereal.
I particularly liked the tiny submarines and frogmen that went up and down in a tub of water (with the aid of a little baking soda)

Add chocolate milk to your bowl of strawberry rice krispies.

I had a friend in his 90’s who only wanted peach juice in his cereal instead of milk.
to me, it was a bit gross….but if someone likes odd combinations , then more power to them.

I recall billboards in Detroit in the 1970s saying to put Vernors on your cereal.
