I miss my childhood set of Funk & Wagnalls ... like from Laugh-In, "Look that up in your Funk & Wagnalls."

It got jettisoned in a move. It was a great encyclopedia to just sit down and read. I do still have a couple of volumes of the philosopy set that went along with it ... Meditations of Marcus Aurelius, Plato's Republic, and I'm not sure what else.

Of course, nothing happened after 1955, but it was very good.
