'Wonder Bread' serves up slices of childhood memory

Post Gazette: "For this, specific dates are best avoided, to create more hooks to catch us. Conversely, specific details are essential, whether about Silly Putty, Hula Hoops or other trivia of our youth. The simple mention of these sets off little audience wildfires of giggles, in one part of the audience for Slinkies, in another for Tony the Tiger. And of course there are plenty of era-nonspecific childhood debris such as Crayola and Silly Putty."
