Ranger Rick made me furry.
I can't believe I'd forgotten about it for so long. I used to read a lot of Ranger Rick--an educational magazine about animals, for kids. I also remember "Your Big Backyard" (a magazine by the same people, aimed at readers younger than 7 years old), which places my age at the time at around 7 years old. Anywhere between 5 and 10, actually--I must have read them a lot, to remember it even now. It's so strange, remembering things from so long ago. It feels like they happened to a different person--I have no memory of actually experiencing it, just the basic details and emotions.
Anyway, now that I remember being so into Ranger Rick, it's no surprise that I turned out furry. Just look at the bottom of that website: "Which animal would you want to be?" Notice that "A frisky black-footed ferret." is the top-voted choice. I'll bet Ranger Rick is responsible for the big furry boom in this generation. That and the internet.
