Just thought I'd pop in and say Hi, (HI!)and I agree with said catalogless store. It always used to bother me that you could not just get a major appliance from them without a two week wait...who the hell keeps a spare fridge in the back room just in case one up and dies. When I want it, I want it! I lived for that catalog.

In my childhood, that catalog was my wish book; the pages I dreamed by and planned my life around. Now, I never go into that store unless I have to pass through it on my way to somewhere else.

Combining Kenju and Steeles comments would be quite hysterical...It would go something like this...

Agree completely - I used to love to mark all of the toys I wanted from that catalog. It came in quite handy, too, when you were assigned collage-making for school because they had pictures of nearly everything you could think of in there somewhere.
