Multiplication game

Hello there everyone,
Hope I'm not being a pest (I haven't posted here in a very long time)
but I just wanted to share a link to a really cool Multiplication game I built a couple of
years ago called Multiflyer. It's a fun, fantastic way to keep your kids up on their
multiplication through the summer months.
Here's the link:

If it's a good game, it probably works as well in the winter or spring or
fall as summer, I'm guessing.

Hello everyone,
I'm back. It's the new school year and so what better time than now for me to tell everyone
(again) about Multiflyer. It's an excellent, award winning online Multiplication game that
has turned the light on for many children struggling with multiplication. Play online (for
FREE!) or become a registered user and get some really cool extras (see demos at the site.)
Here's the link:

Yesterday a bunch of us went to Beverly Hills to visit the "Museum of
Radio and Television" there. We had signed up for a workshop called,
"Re-creating Radio." We were 12 kids and 7 moms. Some did performance
parts and others did sound effects and we put on a radio drama - aliens
invading and a planet being destroyed, etc. Pretty cool script with a
surprise twist at the end. The sound effect stuff was very cool, too -
lots of gizmos and also everyday things used. We did one rehearsal and
then recorded the program. The kids were AWESOME - these are very
theatrically-oriented kids and the museum people were very impressed.
They usually just give you the tape of the show, but they wanted to
keep it to use as a sample for other groups or to play for people when
they're trying to get them to contribute to the museum, so they're
going to send us copies of the recording later this week.
There is a Museum of Radio and Television in New York City, too, as
well as here in Beverly Hills.
So - after the workshop, the museum was open to the public and we
stayed. It was just such a gratifying feeling to be in such a BEAUTIFUL
place - the museum architecture is spacious and gorgeous - that is
devoted to tv and takes it seriously and is just unabashed about it.
The have various screening rooms with big screens and a schedule of
shows being broadcast each day - so you can just go and watch. And they
have a huge library of shows - you select what you want to watch and
sit at a personal "console" to watch it. On a big-screen, I watched a
Alfred Hitchcock piece about a man who was thought to be dead, after a
car crash, but wasn't. I also listened, in the listening room, to an
hour's worth of "I'm Sorry, I'll Read that Again," which was John
Cleese and Eric Idle and Graham Chapman and some other comedians in a
radio show they did pre-Monty Python days. It was very very good - very
funny. Some of the kids watched old Twilight Zone episodes in a group
screening room. Roxana watched a video of "Company" - the musical. I
also watched the Ed Sullivan show with the Beatles appearing for the
first time. They were showing the various Simpsons Halloween specials
in a big-screen viewing room, too, but we went out to get lunch and
missed it.
We'll be going back, for sure. It was free, by the way - although they
have suggested donation amounts.
I'm going to think, in advance, of what I might like to see and things
the kids might like. I know one thing is a broadcast of the first moon
landing.
So - any other suggestions? What would you watch if you had access to a
LOT of old tv programming?

Hi Pam,
I've always wanted to see the old TV shows Queen for a Day and This is Your
Life. When I was a child, I read many references to them, but I've never
actually seen them. So that's my rec for you.

Apparently my father was on an episode of Ed Sullivan, before he was with my
mother. I want to go up there and look it up in the old Ed Sullivan files
they have. He was a juggler and tightrope walker.
Once a year they do a Children's Day there, aimed at younger folk. We went
up 2 years ago and saw Strawberry Shortcake and Madeline costumed
characters, and they had crafts stuff out. The programming in the screening
room was not interesting to Jayn, but it could be to others. It is good to
get on their mailing list. Recently they were doing a series of screenings
of superheroes on tv - including an episode of the rarely seen "The
Champions" from the 1960's UK. Unfortunately I couldn't get there. I love
The Champions though.

Holly said the other day that she would like to see "What's My Line," because
there are so many references to it in other places.
Queen for a Day was like a horror show, because the moms would tell their
tales of really truly pitiful woe ("my husband's crippled and we don't have a
washing machine or a car" or "I'm a widow and my children don't have any clothes
and we'd like to be able to get school clothes"), and then one would get her
washer or whatever, and I don't think the others got diddly. (Maybe they got
the sympathy of their neighbors or churches and got some help later.)

** First episode of Mork and Mindy..**
We had the first season of Mork and Mindy from Netflix recently. My son
really liked it. (So score 1 Mom brownie point for me for noticing and
strewing it. <g>)
** I'd like to show the kids some old commercials. Pepsodent, Hamm's,

Yeah. I like the ads in decades-old magazines that are sometimes found
bound at libraries.
Pam, the Internet Movie Database (IMDB.com) often lists TV roles and
guest appearances that actors have done. So it might be fun to look up
each of your favorite actors, if there's someone you think is talented
or swoon-worthy.

There isn't film of lots of that.
The Peter Pan that's preserved on video was one of several live years that
was preserved somehow (I think) and then shown year after year in my own
childhood.
There was a for-TV production of Rogers and Hammerstein's Cinderella with
Julie Andrews (for whom it was composed) and they only reason it was recorded at
all was for later broadcast west coast (I think that's what I read) and the
medium it was on is unstable and can't (yet) be turned into modern video (if I

There was a good sound recording, though, and that's on CD.
