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

However, the most ridiculous one is the SpongeBob. UNBELIEVABLE that anyone would disparage watching just the the best CARTOON ever. hee hee
But I have no opinion on the matter.
HA!

(My apologizes for the foregoing rant but it's Sunday and Jayne (http://injaynesworld.blogspot.com/) is not around right now.)
Considering that the U.S. seems to be placing more importance on football than its economy, having a (Canadian) manufacturer of such sports equipment would definitely be a win-win. Hell, it might even earn Canada a seat in Congress.
Okay, my bad.

You should have guest-blogged for Jayne in her absence.
As for "guest-blogging" for Jayne, I'll take that as a compliment (thank you). Unfortunately, I'd have to look up shit. I generally have to to that to understand some of these political cartoons.

Speaking of which, I have no idea what the Dallas Cowboys thing is all about, but it's on 60 Minutes tonight.
Football. Again.
Go figure.
