They don't make many of these toys anymore because they require IMAGINATION.

Our generation (1960 to 1975) ws the last to get great toys and inventions like this.

Do you see things in stores that you can build, or create, from nothing?

I don't think so.

If you do, you're in an antique shop.

You know those little sub-moronic sheep who run around you with those vacuous unblinking shallow eyes in your house?

You THINK that they MIGHT be able to run the country (no less work in a car wash) one day?

Don't depend on it, bub.
