Not since the Cabbage Patch Doll shopping wars had we seen such a ruckus. We thought we had laid the bad shopping habits to rest. But in 1996 it reared it's ugly head again in the form of Tickle me Elmo. That crazy, laughing, tickle monster doll. Who could have guessed?
Then in 2000 the Robot craze began. Remember the movie AI-Artificial Intelligence? Tech gurus came out with the perfect pet - the robot Cyber Puppy! The new puppy pal was off to great start and then what happened? Kind of died. Guess the robot alternative of the real thing isn't what it's cracked up to be. So take that, David, you'll never be a Real Boy! I'm thinking if I keep putting stuff up like this, that your kids might really like my blog too. Like family reminicing time online. Hey, were is that dumb dog any way?
