Tonight at dinner Anya told us that she learned about the constitution in her social studies class. Howard and I both sang the preamble to it. Anyone else remember Schoolhouse Rock?
Ha! Yes ... we've been living in a cramped apartment this semester and I keep singing about getting some elbow room :) That SHR in particular is troubling, but still ridiculously catchy.
I know--SHR really glossed over the serious stuff of US history (like, um, slavery and driving indigenous peoples off of their land). Yet, I still have a certain fondness for some of the songs! I'm so glad someone else "out there" remembered them too!
