Good morning Google machine, I hope you slept well. Though I’m sure that you, being the internet machine would have a hard time sleeping, what with all the fuckin mouth breathers (ala Randall Graves), the drunken email sending and the query results for a wholesome Tiawana Donkey show. When Al Gore invented you, he should have thought of an off switch….BUT wait, Al Gore didn’t invent you?!?!, but he did invent global warming (so I read on a T-shirt and T-shirts don’t lie)
So the weekend is nearly upon us again, I really like how it reoccurs every 4 or 5 days, and this weekend is the Maritime tattoo convention. Should be a good do. My wife and I were lucky to get a room as there is the annual Bluenose marathon happening in Halifax this weekend too. I’ll be sure to post the results of the weekend and if I figure out the bloggy thingy, maybe a pic or two.
SO, while writing about having nothing to write about yesterday, I started to remember other old shows I loved watching as a kid. Let me lay some on you, see if your picking up what I’m putting down.
So first, I know you’ll remember “The Gummi Bears” I FUCKIN LOVED that show. I still know most of the theme song. I think I really liked those Disney cartoons, like Tailspin, Ducktails, but also other Classics such as Astro Boy (which was based in the year 2000), He-Man and G.I. Joe. I remember I use to watch when I first woke up two shows in particular. One was The Wizard of OZ cartoon that was done in the 60’s. that show was MESSED. But OH so good for a developing young mind.
Here’s the theme song for you..he he he
They're three sad souls, Oh me, oh my,
No brains, no heart, He's much too shy.
But never mind you three,
Here's the Wizard as you can see.
He'll fix that one, two, three
In that funny place called the world of Oz.
Oh the world of Oz is a funny, funny place
Where everyone has a funny, funny face.
All the streets are paved with gold,
And no one ever grows old.
In that funny land lives the Wizard of Oz.
.........................................My my my… my head is spinning…
Also, the Mighty Hercules…I still have that fawn Newton saying “Get him Hurc, Get him…”stuck in my head and it’s been like 25 years since I’ve seen that show.
These were the best shows to me as a 6 year old, back when animation was different, not all cartoons looked like American bastardised versions of Anime which floods the T.V box today. Those were the days.
But enough of that, I’ve got shit to do and pages to build. I think tomorrow, I’ll write about books. Or maybe later today.
