Hahaha! Is that true? I soooooo admire that! Especially the last bit.

I know this toon from early morning saturday TV when I was a kid. You'd see all sorts of things from America's cartoon past from great stuff like these guys, Batfink, Jetsons, Secret Squirrel etc. All sorts of things. There was this really odd thing called Wait till your father goes home that just seemed oddly mawkish and ill-suited to the task of entertaining excitable children on a weekend morning.

Anyway happy birfday Rocky & Bullwinkle! That movie was ok! I liked De Niro in it, he made me laugh. I'll admit I didn't sit through the whole thing.
