The library card catalog is an ancient system.
Remember back when you had to flip through drawer after drawer of cards, sorted by category, author, or title to figure out where on the shelf stacks the book you wanted might be, and then you had to run off to the stacks to find it?

Today’s world is full of nostalgia.
Everywhere you look, people are yearning for “the good old days”, such as when kids could play in the woods all day without supervision. When you could eat undercooked meat or seafood without a care in the world.

“I’m so hungry I could eat a horse” is a common phrase, but one doesn’t always stop to think about what it means.

Raise your hand if you believe in Santa Claus.
Note that Web Watch didn’t write “if you still believe”, as the word “still” implies that there’s a time when you naturally stop believing in what Santa’s all about.
You know those playgrounds with all the plastic balls in the ballpit?
Web Watch told you about how those ballpit balls were covered with feces and germs, remember?
