Want to go back in time? Humorist Jerry
Harju tells how it was when kids could bring knives to school but not
marbles. And what was on the menu when his father was the first
stay-at-home dad. Jerry
will jog fond memories of 1940's radio commercials and Christmas
goodies, the Great Depression Syndrome of saving string and tinfoil,
when the phrase "trick or treat" had teeth in it, and, yes, some
jail time. Way
Back When is a collection of selected essays published in the Mining
Journal, Upper Michigan's largest Newspaper.

I recalled my own precursor to what we now call 'recycling.'"
