   My sister pointed out the amazing thing is not that I recognized a minor character from a 60-year old science fiction cartoon. That’s normal for me as I’ve always been a bit . . . odd.

   The amazing thing is there’s a factory somewhere cranking out stuffed dolls of a minor character from a 60-year old science fiction cartoon.
