Amelia Earhart’s autobiographical book The Fun of It: Random Records of My Own Flying and of Women in Aviation covers Earhart’s life through May 20-21, 1932, “when Miss Earhart, alone in a Lockheed Vega monoplane with a single Wasp engine, negotiated 2,026 miles through storm and fog from Harbor Grace, Newfoundland, to a cow pasture on the outskirts of Londonderry, Ireland. The flight set a transatlantic record of 14 hours, 56 minutes...and stirred such public adulation that she confided, ‘I’ll be glad when the zoo part is over.’” (ANB)

The '90s were hands-down the best years to be alive. You’d come home from school, grab a packet of gushers or dunkaroos as your afternoon snack, and relax on the sofa as you watched your favorite television show reruns.

Or, maybe, you secretly put on The Simpsons when your parents weren’t around because they didn’t think it was suitable for children.
