Creeping Toward Normalcy

Be back on Friday, hopefully.
Normalcy: "The good old days that never were." Thank you President Harding.
Chair: I have been informed that the above relates to Pee Wee Herman in some way(?)

Yes, it's Chairy from Pee Wee's Playhouse. Here's the intro to the show. You can see her in action: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BakQE5VTfVw
I remember thinking he was slightly manic as a child and now when I watch as an adult, the feeling is mulitiplied about 37-fold. It's craziness for sure but perhaps that's not all bad.

Chairy!!!!!!!!!
I can't believe someone threw that away. It would fetch a bundle on eBay.

I guess I should have grabbed it, despite its sogginess. I thought it was from the Sponge Bob era!

hi - great find -- but must admit I'm really writing you because I found your site after searching for information about the Cherokee bldg on 77th st. I lived there in 1994 in a tiny studio ($1200 a month back then) and still fondly remember the sunrise over John Jay Park and the East River. Would love to share stories.

Peewee - Where would I be without you Chairie?
Chairie - On the floor.
Classic.

That is by far the most depressing thing I have ever seen on the internet.
And I've always considered myself more of a Wolf Chair kind of guy.
