                                        April 11, 2015. Last time, on Mythic Ramblings…. You’ll thank me someday. Probably Friday. No vaccines for you, sweet child. What sort of fairy tale ending is oh. I was more disappointed than anything. This time, on Mythic Ramblings, I’ll be talking about some great presentations I saw at the 2015 National Popular Culture Association Conference. In New Orleans. Some of them were awesome, others piqued my interest, but all of them definitely happened. Next time we start projects when we get the handout!
