When I read Donna McGarry's earlier post about her favorite Christmas as a child, it reminded me of one of my favorite dolls: the circa-1970 "Baby Go Bye-Bye." The little blond, pig-tailed doll (which I named Cindy, after the littlest Brady Bunch sister), drove a battery-operated "Bumpety Buggy" that I thought was really cool, because it went around and as it turned, the doll's head moved along. I guess that was foreshadowing for my own adult tastes, as I now drive yellow-gold 2002 Mazda Miata convertible -- and just like Cindy, my little head often bobs along as I drive, too. Turns out there are a few of these dolls on eBay these days -- which is where the above photo comes from. I'd love to hear about your favorites from childhood.

You pulled a string on his back and he said all kinds of exciting things and inspiring things. In short order, however, I created a family story that will never die - when I discovered that GI Joe - tough guy of tough guys had absolutely nothing between his legs. I don't know what I expected - but seeing nothing was a shock. What can I say it was my first doll, I mean action figure. Posted by: Ben at November 30, 2007 1:39 PM Post a commentPlease be civil.
