Kids these days will never know the joy and excitement of walking into your class and seeing that the TV & VCR had been rolled down from the library on it's giant cart. Even if it was a lame educational documentary, it was better than a lecture. But, when you found out it was Reading Rainbow and it wasn't even Friday, it was the best part of the day.

Nice description - I love the nostalgia of that! It was definitely special to see that cart in the classroom. I'm older than you and when I was in grade school (and even into 7th grade), it was actually a film projector on that cart. The absolute worst was when the damn film reel broke! The teacher would have to try to carefully repair (tape) the broke ends and re-feed it, and then we'd all have to wait while she fast forwarded the damn thing to where we left off.

Ahh, memories! Here's what I'm talking about:

You guys are funny! I was one of the people that delivered these carts and projectors to the different rooms in high school. I was stationed in a secretaries room just off of the library where the carts were stored. A lot of rooms had the equipment but some needed fast delivery. It was fun to go flying down the halls of the school between classes delivering "the carts" to different rooms. Later on they became large TV's with VCR's.
