  • Buckle me up, strap me down: I feel naked unless I’m bound…

    I learned many things growing up as a young child because my parents were more or less firm believers in learning by doing. Don’t play with matches. Don’t stick your fingers in your mouth at a petting zoo. Don’t dump a box of Raisin Bran out on the bathroom floor to pick out the raisins (I didn’t get sick, but Mom has very embarrassing pictures).

    Ten years ago the television was used as a virtual babysitter to keep kids quiet. Now, according to Teen Research Unlimited, the Web has officially replaced television as the instant babysitter in a box.
