Tomorrow at this time, I'll be playing Double Dash.

In the meantime, take a look at this paperback I found in our collection of kids' books. It's an early 80's kids craft book, back when crafting was almost exclusively a Vacation Bible School activity.

Notice anything supremely crazy about that cover? Sock doll? Looks fine. Pressed flower bookmark? Wonderful. Heart-shaped necklace keychain? So appropriate it should come packed-in. Ed Asner photo puzzle...

What?

Yep, that's Ed Asner on the cover of a 1982 crafts-for-young-girls Scholastic pocket book. We did live in interesting times back then, didn't we? Not Tom Selleck or David Cassidy or Simon LeBon. Ed Asner. And I'll bet he didn't see a damn penny from The Glamorous Gift Book either.

This must be the only time in printed history that Ed Asner's visage was anywhere near the word "glamorous."

Go ahead and click the cover for an unecessary zoom-in.
