Scrolling for your birth year is not a fun game. I've played it myself, with a similar reaction. Of course, we're pretty close in age, as I recall.

As a small child one of my favorite pastimes was gluing ants to the floor. They'd come up through my vent and I'd put a dollop of Elmers on them. Eventually they looked like those glass paperweights with things inside them. It's not the most effective way to get rid of pests, but I had a good time.

Pirate away. Aarrr!

I'm still very squeeful over having my drabble included in the podcast. Beaming with pride, even.
