Sunday Funnies

It was an interesting week, last week, in the funny papers. Political cartoonists were still taking a jab at Obama, his peace prize, and bombing the moon. The Canadian dollar gained ground on it's American counterpart last week achieving almost equal value. And while Canada may not got the Phoenix Coyotes, there was a rumour last week the NHL may well resurrect the Quebec Nordiques. Vive la difference! Oh, and Rush Limbaugh (great football name) was turned down in his efforts to own the St. Louis Rams. Just as well. No one saw him as a minority owner!

Hey, thanks for the shout-out! Oh, those "loonies" weren't about moi?

Harumph.

Fine. Be that way.

Hee hee hee.

My fave cartoon, the new helmut inspired by Rush.

That had me rolling!

Hysterical. I love the Rush cartoons, especially the helmet and goal post. Keep 'em comin'!

Quirks: Maybe not about you, but it's all in the family with your northern cousins.

Me-Me: Oh the Limbaugh cartoons were priceless.
Donnie said…
Limbaugh probably donates more money annually to charities giving to disadvantaged people (of course) than any ten NFL players or owners combined. They don't know the meaning a "a racist". Whine, whine, whine.
Chris said…
My question is, whose idea was it to get Limbaugh involved with football in the first place? Having him do commentary as part of an NFL show was ridiculous, and this is what happens. He's a buffoon, and as such, let him stay with his own show, so his listeners all stay in one place.

Don: Wow, that's a side to the guy I wasn't aware of.
nonamedufus said…
DK: I know. The outcry over this was amazing. And largely due to some of his comments about black players when he was a commentator.

The Polka Dot Door

A long time ago, when I was 22, my first child was born.  That kid grew up on a little Canadian kid's show called Polka Dot Door, produced by the TV Ontario network.  And Dad, more often than not, sat through those shows with his little one. Nine or so years later when a brother, and a year after that when a sister came along number one son was moving on to Knight Rider and The Dukes of Hazzard.  But there was a nice overlap where his siblings picked up where he had left off with Polka Dot Door.  And Dad was right there to welcome them. So you're looking at a Polka Dot Door veteran.  The show began in 1971 and ran to 1993.  I didn't watch the full run but I did get in my fair share.  The formula was pretty simple.  A young male and female host, which seemed to change every week, sang songs, told stories, made crafts and generally did their best stimulate little brains.  The show opened as follows... Imagination Day!  Oh boy!  You know what happens on Imagination D
