Where the hell are my Cartoons
Ya know as I get older I realize that all change is for the worse. I realize I am probably an old Curmudgeon, but some of these causes are legitimate.
Here I am awake on a Saturday morning watching the ESPN or the WeatherChannel on an endless loop… Where the Hell are my Cartoons. I mean God Damn it to Hell. WHat the Fuck. Where are my Cartoons.
Saturday has always been Cartoon morning. When I was a kid. We would get up earlier on Saturday morning so as not to miss our favorite cartoons. I remember being excited about a great cartoon lineup. And going to Kings Island and seeing all the Hanna Barbara characters.
Heck, Used to watch the Bugs Bunny/Road Runner Hour (which was on for 90 minutes) with my Dad, brother and Sister. Of Course I liked the Beatles, The Impossibles and Captain Caveman.
(What follows is captures of Copyrighted material that I had in noway anything to do with creating, using them in a review of the genre, and as such fair use)
Post me some clips from youtube of favorite cartoons. And we will discuss their importance to modern society (fullfills fair use)
Remember the rules on this blog are, Blog Jacking is encouraged, talking with each other is encouraged, Curmudgeoning on any subject is encouraged.
And as always how the hell are you?
Me? well I am still fighting my blood sugar. My fasting was 167 this morning. I need to off load some stress. My job sucks. I make very little money. I have been unemployed for 2 and a half years before landing a low paying temp gig. HAMP is supposed to be for people that would benefit from a Modification. People that have had a reduction in salary. If I don’t fit that criteria I have no idea who does. But this is another “VOLUNTARY” program and my Bank CHASE, is having no part of it.
The Impossibles are a reflection of the 60s society and ….
Ya know I have an Impossibles DVD, does anyone know if they are on netflix?
Hong Kong Phooey reflects the cultural fascination with the Fighting Arts in the 70s

Remember the “Laff-a-Lympics”? These were the all-stars of Saturday morning cartoons.
I found myself rooting for the Really Rottens…
I searched high and low (well youtube) for some clips of the original BBC “Captain Pugwash” (and not the 70s remake) but alas, this was all I could find..
It was the very first thing I ever saw on telly..

I’m sorry to hear that work is kinda “Eh” for you these days. 😐 It seems like things are rough for those with no jobs AND they are almost just as rough for those that DO because of how companies are taking advantage of the fact that pretty much everyone who has a job should be grateful to have one….they know it…..and they make sure their employees are FULLY aware of that fact, too, by getting as much as they can out of them for as little compensation as possible. In my heart, I know it wont be like this forever. One day things will turn around for this country and when it does….Karma is gonna be a BITCH!
On a lighter note…..
Here are some of my favorite cartoons from my childhood
:love: :love:
Here is one of my old favorites:
Fracctured Fairy Tales…
Whacky Races
Always root for the Underdog….
Race Bannon was every girl’s hero….
I always like Evil-Lyn. She was bad, but in a good sort of way.
