Yes. We had great kid shows like Garfield Goose, Bozo, Gigglesnort Hotel, Ray Rayner, Mulqueen's Kiddie A Go-Go and lots more.
 
Bozo was seen in other markets across the country, but our Chicago version lasted 40 years.
 
I am currently reading Emergency Care in the Streets 8th edition.... It's two huge textbooks for paramedic school. It's all I"m reading haha.

Early Christian Fathers -- interesting book on the early leaders of the Christian church c. 1st-2nd century A.D.
 
Haven't picked up the book in a little while, but I'd still like to finish: You Are a Badass
 
I am mostly reading books related to my classes. I have misplaced one of my textbooks though as I recently moved house. Hopefully can find that over the next few days. :banghead:

Psychological Types by Carl Jung
A Companion to Cognitive Anthropology edited by David B. Kronenfeld

I am enjoying the Companion to Cognitive Anthropology more, which surprises me. As I thought it was going to be the opposite. While it is definitely a subfield of social anthropology I am weaker in, I am surprised how many of the anthropologists being referenced that I recognize or in some cases have even read some of their work. One or two of them I even reference a lot in assignments at uni and didn't even realize they were cognitive anthropologists.
