Every Time I Turn Around


Every time I (turn around) walk by a refrigerator on the street being thrown out I can't help but being brought back to a "very special episode" of Punky Brewster. You know the one….the gang is playing hide and go seek outside and Cheri hides in the refrigerator that's being thrown out because someone left the door on.




What I love about this is that there were not one but TWO life lesions in this episode.

1) You should always remember to pay attention when being taught CPR. (Punky didn't think she'd ever need it so she was doing something else the day they taught this in class and low and behold, she did indeed need it that afternoon).



2) Proper appliance disposal practices. You would think that in this day of iPods, Kindle’s and all that other useless crap they would just start making ones that can open from the inside. But I guess that would just encourage adolescent shananagins and poorly thought out games of hide and go seek.



That Punky……Always on the cutting edge of education……and fashion.
