This box belonged to my daughter. I think it was a gift for her 8th or 9th birthday. This item was quite the hit with her. She loved it. She's a June baby. The year she received this boom box, she used to take it out to the front yard and play music while she danced and did gymnastics on our front lawn. Dave and I would sit on the front porch reading while she danced around. Dance like no one is watching: she took that to heart!
Isn't it amazing how far technology has come in such a short period of time? Meghan is now 26. In the years since this box was given to her we've bought Walkman players, various versions of the iPod, an iPhone, iBooks, MacBooks and iPads all of which allow you to take your music with you. The iPod Meghan uses now is smaller than the "sports' logo on this box. I'm typing this on my MacBook as I sit in the family room using our wireless network.
What will they think of next?
(They being those guys who used to be in the AV Club. Love you Dave!)
I was never a member of an AV Club!
