    The Classic Electric Company Memories Thread

    Cullen, I don’t know if this was mentioned yet, a cartoon song with words ending with “mp”. I believe Douglas Grant sings it, Jim Simon animated it. Dear Mom, about this camp. I crossed the creek, me and Scamp. That’s why my socks are damp. I tried to jump over this stump. But he tripped me...

    The Food Thread (Non Instagram Edition)

    There’s one way around pizza grease. If you do have any leftover pizza, wrap it in foil and freeze it. The next day, put it in the oven 400 degrees for 10 minutes. If you have a toaster oven , that’s even better One rule. DO NOT MICROWAVE!!! Follow this, your crust will be crisp, not soggy, and...

    Questions about anything

    I found there is an app called Get Upside. You can download for free, and get cash back every time you fill up. Hope it helps.

    Not necessarily. You can go to the pump at Sam’s Club even if you’re not a member.

    I don’t know if the animation studios were contractually bound or not, but CTW did give them quite a bit of work. One other Hubley cartoon. Kit/kite. A father is in his chair reading the paper. He has a present for his son. He opens the box which says “kit”. But Dad insists it’s a “kite”, even...

    The New What Made You Frown Today Thread

    The only alternative to dialysis is getting a transplant. I’d like to tell him I was on dialysis for a little over a year and it saved my life. It takes some getting used to, but it’s not that bad.

    When you need to rant...

    It varies how much it might cost you to break the lease. For me, I had to put up a month’s rent for security and one month rent in advance. The advance month you might not get back. The only way to get the security back, the apartment has to be exactly how you found it. So nail holes have to be...

    Just curious, Cullen. 50 years ago I was (don’t laugh) three and a half years old. How old were you? PS coming up on January 9, it will be 50 years of Zoom. Great time to be alive.

    The "You know what?" thread

    One thing about All in the Family. In the beginning, obviously the focus was on Archie and his bigoted ways. Most of the conflict came from Archie and Meathead shouting each other down. In later seasons, we got to see Mike was every bit as stubborn, chauvinistic, and closed-minded as he accused...

    The "You know what?" thread

    Lately I’ve been catching up on Dave Chappelle. The trans community want him canceled. The last time I saw him, he did a funny bit about Sesame Street. Thought it was great. He’s taken swipes at white people, Christiians, Trump, and I still think he’s a funny guy. The rub comes, he had a trans...

    The Classic Electric Company Memories Thread

    In the opening episode of Season 3, the two did a vaudeville skit featuring their names “Kelly and Buddy (rhymes with old fuddy sudsy)”, showcasing double consonants. During the previous season, 5-year-old me had a huge crush on Denise Nickerson. When I found out Bayn replaced her, my heart...

    When you need to rant...

    I feel your pain, but getting stoned isn’t going to make it easier finding a place. I can’t remember what your terms are, but if you’re living month-to-month, all you need is 30 days notice and you’re free to leave. If you do have a yearly lease, don’t wait until the last day to find a new...

    The "You know what?" thread

    In the first few years, I liked the dim, gritty look because that’s what city blocks looked like. That’s where my family came from. The pace dragged, and the transitions weren’t always smooth. But in time things got better. In its first year Sesame was still finding its feet. If Sesame only...

    I was 22 when Jim died. The next week I graduated from college, so it was time to officially grow up. (I was already well on my way)II had a lot of new responsibilities and demands to meet, and watching Sesame didn’t fit in. It was time to put down the duckie , life was calling. I only got a...

    The "You know what?" thread

    I have to admit. Three things during the first season I could find fault with. 1) Repitition. One Season One episode had the Baker #7 film three times. 2) Pacing.Yes, sometimes it dragged 3) Big Burd, by all accounts, was dumb and ugly. Caroll Spinney admitted as much. In the next few seasons...

    The Electric Company had another maverick cowboy. Luis Avalos as Wild Cold Bill. He packed a six-shooter that made his pants drop too, exposing his polka dot underwear. The”LD” cluster in WILD and COLD rarely got mentioned, so it’s nice they got a shoutout.

    Sounds quite a bit like Jeremy Irons. I remember him as the wise Virgil in “Mighty Max” in the 90s. Cool stuff.

    The New Am I The Only One Thread

    Rhymes with “bridge”. Actually we didn’t have refrigerators until around 1940. Before that we had ice boxes. When the ice man used to sell you a block of ice to keep your food cold. Although some people still call their fridge their “ice box”, but might I digress. We really came a long way in...
