Further discourse shows that rather than seeing women as deserving of work just as they are, men “let them” work as long as it does not interact with their “serious” industry. “Under no circumstances is a woman permitted to follow any employment not perfectly adapted, both as to kind and degree of labor, to her sex” (257). The men discuss it as if the women are playing at work. Being “inferior of strength to men, and further disqualified industrially in special ways” women work within an entirely separate labor structure (257). However, they are still treated as quite secondary to men. The fact that women have jobs outside the home is exciting and progressive. But when one looks more closely at gender roles, “utopia” becomes a bit more blurry. I do not imagine many people would argue the merits of the eradication of poverty and war. In Bellamy’s Boston in the year 2000, many things have changed from how they were in 1887, and the consensus among the book’s characters is that they have changed for the better.

Kind of an odd choice for the vaunted number one-hundred in a series, this book lives up to its title by dragging the point of view character through an unrelenting slog of miserable occurrences. I don't know if it was deliberate to fit with The Worst Day of Your Life's downer theme, but the copy I have was bound with the interior pages upside-down. In 2005, Choose Your Own Adventure books once again began to be published, but none of Edward Packard's titles have yet been included among the newly-released books. Edward Packard was the author of many of these books, though a substantial number of other authors were included as well. Eventually, one hundred eighty-four Choose Your Own Adventure books would be published before production on new entries to the series ceased in 1998. In 1979, the first book to be released in the series was "The Cave of Time", a fantasy time-travel story that remained in print for many years. The first such book that Edward Packard wrote in the Choose Your Own Adventure series was titled "Sugarcane Island", but it was not actually published as the first entry in the Choose Your Own Adventure Series. He was one of the first authors to explore the idea of gamebooks, in which the reader is inserted as the main character and makes choices about the direction the story will go at designated places in the text. Edward Packard attended and graduated from both Princeton University and Columbia Law School.

In the summer of 1949, then-General Manager Mort Watters asked Lewis (hired on two months earlier as WCPO's first art director) to host an hour-long filler show called Al's Corner Drugstore, in which Lewis, dressed in a soda jerk's uniform, would take phone-in requests for songs which he would play on his accordion, which would later become one of his many trademarks along with his straw boater hat.Īt that time, the show was not aired in a closed set, so people could walk in from off the street to watch the show in person. The show's origins were completely by happenstance. ( Sesame Street holds the national record, being on the air continuously since 1969.) Uncle Al holds the unofficial record for the longest-running regularly-scheduled series with the same host for the show's entire run. The show enjoyed a remarkable 35-year run (1950–1985) on WCPO-TV, making it one of the longest-running local children's shows in American TV history. The show was hosted by Cleveland native Al Lewis (1924–2009) (not to be confused with the actor who played Grandpa on The Munsters), and later was co-hosted by his wife, Wanda. The Uncle Al Show was a children's television program originating in Cincinnati.
