Do you remember some 50 years ago? Okay…some 40 years ago, waking up to cartoons?
Okay, most of you young folk probably don’t, ‘cause you weren’t here yet…Anyway…
Two things…During the week, starting at 7 A.M. was Captain Kangaroo…you know, when he was still alive.
The Captain had his sidekick, Mr. Green Jeans, who smoked a bud or two and/or molested children. Of course, Ol' Cap'n also had Grandfather Clock.Captain would ask Grandfather Clock, “What time is it Grandfather?”
The reply from the tired timepiece would be, “Look at your own damn watch, you fool.” Or something like that.
And of course there was Bunny Rabbit and Mr. Moose…they’re still alive ya know.
I mean, they're still alive if you don’t mind sticking your hand up their ass to get a charge out of them.
Of course, on Saturday mornings…
My brothers and I, would push my passed out dad off of the couch so we could watch the likes of Mighty Mouse, Heckle and Jeckle, Top Cat, and of course…Bugs!!
Sometimes, my oldest brother Rick would show up and make donuts out of Bisquick. Man…They were great.
Which is more than I can say about my brother Rick, the little bastard.
There was one cartoon that maybe you don’t remember and was called, Supercar. God, I loved it.
And, there was always the classic Rocky and Bullwinkle.
There was one cartoon that maybe you don’t remember and was called, Supercar. God, I loved it.
And, there was always the classic Rocky and Bullwinkle. Back then, cartoons were cartoons, and we loved them.
If you were to tell kids today, “Get the fuck out of my hair and go watch cartoons.”, they would either tell you to go pound sand in your ass or they'd watch some unfunny, overproduced, piece of computer animated shit.
Ya know…Kids today, rely on a lot of fancy shit. For their amusement, they rely on a ton of hi-tech wizardry.
Do you remember Toto from the Wizard of Oz? Well, Toto is still alive.
He never went down that road with Dorothy. He was afraid of those hi-tech, fucking shoes. Wuff…Wuff…
And the best thing of all about Toto…He didn’t believe in no fucking Wizards.
Dig It,
Dave

I watched captain kangaroo forever...I loved Tom Terrific...I still want to get a wonder dog I can name Manfred.
and Grover is my fave too....
Michele: I truly think he was a barnyard perv. Cheers!!
Hope: Ha...Settle down Hope. Cheers!!
Kat: "Manfred"...That would be a good name for my wanker. Cheers Kat!!
...remember when Daffy Duck would get shot in the face with the shotgun and his bill would spin around and land in the wrong place and he would have to grab it and put it back?...good times...
Phfrankie: I looooove Daffy Duck. My fave WB episodes, however, were when Bugs would fuck with Wile E. Coyote...Genius. Cheers P-Man!!
Don't forget Felix the Cat... who later went on to a career in porn....
Cheesy: Hee Hee Hee. Very Good. I dig Felix the Cat. Cheers Cheesy!!
of course Felix went into porn.... Feeeeelix. Not to mention his magic bag of "tricks"
Manfred the wonder cock?
I dunno
makes me think of foghorn leghorn....
laughing
Kat: Ha...Even more reason to use that name because I think Foghorn Leghorn is a riot. Of course, Schmoop wants me to keep the name, "Seamus". Cheers Kat!!
I miss WB and the whole gang so much! So how come THEY aren't in syndication or currently being re-aired? or are they???
Thanks for the memories, Dave!
Abdee-Abdee-Abdee
That's All Folks!
Have a Grrr-reat Bagwine Weekend.
Dice: They used to be on in re-runs but I think WB realized they could make more money by making us pay for their cartoons on DVD.
Have a luverrrrrly weekend yourself. Cheers!!
Captian K was cool. I watched that show all the time when I was a kid. The cartoons were cool too.
Of course I still watch cartoons. Futurama is coming back. Did you see that? Very cool!
And of course my favorite all time cartoon was The Tick! He as a freaking riot.

Jay: Ha. Very Good, Jay. I watch cartoons all the time. Good Ones.
When Ryno was gorwing up we liked enjyed Johnny Bravo and Corage the Cowardly Dog.
The newer Bravo's lacked the funniness, but damn, the epsidoe of Courage called, "Heads of Beef" is still to this day, a fave of mine, and his. Cheers!!
Ohohoh and!!!
Johney Quest!
Cheesy: Jonny Quest was hip before his time. Cheers Cheesy!!
