Not that. More Supercard (right name?) but I'm pretty sure not that 
either. The memory seems to be of some "real" product, not these 
lightweights. But kind of glitzy, I think…

P.S. As I get old there is much that is from so long ago it becomes hard 
to remember, but I find I can perceive more. I go to a movie and I see 
more. I listen to music and I hear more. I read the news and I horrify 
more. I have not become the history fanatic that my demographic is at 
risk for, but the history I do consume means so much more. All of it is 
because I have more backstory to draw upon. Even if the specifics are fuzzy.
