Martin Luther King, Jr

Patty's girl scout troop meets in a first grade classroom at her school.  The other day, the teacher mentioned she'd been teaching her class about Martin Luther King, Jr.  After the lesson, a kid asked if Mr. King watched Sponge Bob.  And, since my brain works in a crazy way, I began to wonder if there were any children's programs at the time Mr. King would himself have been a first grade student. 

I know, I know.  Of all the wonderful things to research about him, I'm looking up cartoons during his childhood.  I can't help it.  I was curious. 

So, after looking up his age, I decided he would have been in first grade around 1937.  And then after looking up television programs in 1937 I came to the conclusion that he probably wasn't watching television at all during his childhood.  More than likely, the young Martin Luther King was enjoying radio programming instead. 

I didn't read that as a fact anywhere, it's just an assumption I made.

3 Kinda Random Things

Realized that I never added the screen shot of the Hair Salon game that crashed my iPhone.  Well, I'm sure it wasn't the app that crashed the phone.  Heard that a lot of folks are having this happen when they do an upgrade.  I've made my peace with it, so guess it's time to move on!  This game is still a big hit around here.  I've purchased several of the Toca Boca games and Patty just loves all of them.  This hair salon one, though, is kind of scary looking!  Think it might be a good time to do a sissor check around the house.
