Waaaaay back in the mid-1990’s

While getting ready to watch The Wizard of Oz, we took a few moments (it’s only 13 minutes long) to watch the black-and-white silent-film version, circa 1910.

“Girls? How many years ago do you think this movie was made?”
– Daddy, thinking that the girls will be impressed when he tells them the answer of “almost 100 years ago”

“It was probably back in 1996 when they only had black-and-white TV.”
– Emily, showing an 8-year-old’s complete lack of scale (She was born in 1997!)
