Airline security is serious business.
Sometimes, however, if you didn’t laugh about all this stuff, you’d sink into a big, black hole. C’mon, doesn’t it make you laugh when you think about the fact that we can’t have toothpaste, deodorant, mouthwash, shaving cream, lotion, eye drops or hair gel on board, but we can have a […]
The relationship beween a child and a doll is one that can only be understood by experiencing it, but once experienced, it is never forgotten.
If you want to once again experience the childhood joy of dolls, the Rosalie Whyel Museum of Doll Art in Bellevue, Washington, is the place to do it.
