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! ...

By the way, U.P., thanks for sharing this post on Facebook every week. It's greatly appreciated.
No problem on sharing the posts. I share both on my page and on my profile, because I have friends that enjoy your choice of cartoons for the week who aren't fans of my page. I hope, though, it's not overkill for those who are both friends of mine and fans of my page. So far, though, no one has complained...which why would they? The cartoons are usually funny (or thought provoking) and are a great way to start a Sunday morning.
Very much so. *smile*
AND... Royal Pain In The Ass?
HA!
You sure they weren't talking U.S. politics?
Cuz it's a moniker that fits this nation too.
heh heh
Costa Rica is looking better and better all the time.

Ha! I love that Bachmann/Elvis one. She's gotta be related to Palin somehow.
