I’d have to give some thought to whether I have such a talisman.

But that little box . . . it reminds me of that “Oh God, Please Keep Me From Crying” scene in Amelie where the title character arranges to return a box of childhood treasures to a depressed old divorced guy.

Oh . . . thank you YouTube.

This piece perfectly encapsulates that ‘big bro mojo’ feeling! So much that I’m feeling it right now.

Thanks for the refreshed memories!

I hold out hope that I might yet come across one particular variant of a Hallmark Snoopy plushie/beanie.
