Early-onset Alzheimers apparently has you confusing After-School Specials with Schoolhouse Rock. :?

These were the morality stories like where Scott Baio got really high and ended up dead or something, or stuff about stutterers, handicapped people, pregnant teens, having crushes on cheerleaders, or nursing wounded deer back to health.

I buy and sell a lot of media, one of the discs in the set has a scratch I could never get buffed out. One day I want to buy one of the expensive DVD/CD polishers, but they cost a couple hundred bucks usually.

Shrinky Dinks were awesome. Did they stop selling them because some kid died turning on the oven?

As far as I know they're still on the market, but you can actually get sheets to print from your home computer on and make your own now.

Should be at any Hobby Lobby, Michaels, maybe even Office Max.

Our newest addition to our creative line of shrinkable plastic is SHRINKY DINKS for Ink Jet Printers. We apply a patented coating to our Bright White shrinkable plastic sheets. This coating allows you to print any image from your computer or digital camera onto the plastic sheet. Photographs are really exciting but the possibilities are endless!!
