My family is huge, so there were a ton of us kids running around, and a never-ending supply of sugary cereals. During summertime, I learned one lesson and I learned it fast. Get up first and check the amount of cereal left in the open boxes. (We weren't allowed to open a new box just to grab the 3-D card, we had to wait until one was empty and then it was open warfare between my brothers and I to get to the bottom of the box to grab that wonderful three dimensional treasure it held.) Having this reconnaissance meant that if the Corn Flakes were low enough to possibly be finished off by the next kid, I would sit in the background and wait for one of my siblings to start pouring a bowl...and when they started doing that 'final shake' to free the last remnants of sugary goodness from the inner waxy bag, I would spring to life and say something like, "Oh, that one's done. Let's open this new one, so I can eat too!" Before they knew what hit them, I was staring at a fantastically shiny new Ralph Garr card!!!
