If you can tell by my title...uh...I did! It's the Bullwinkle Puppet that was used to introduce the show when it was on NBC. It was deleted because the puppet said that the knobs on the TV would come off if you pull them off. And the kids did it! I swear...

Anyway, I had to chage it because I doubt anyone knows who Storng man is..and I wanted a scene change!

Didn't he also tell them, in a later episode, to glue the knobs back on?

Yes he did! Jay Ward tried to convince the angered NBC, that he gave the network an audience until the repairman came.

Oh, and I'm changing (or have changed, depending on when you read this) my signature again. The Dogbert quote was funnier late at night when I was reading DIlbert books. And it really should read "It takes more than a Turtleneck to look like a chihuahua!"

Avatar. So that's what that's called. I thought to myself, now that I'm a full fledged member, I need a picture-thingy.

Avatar. It makes me feel like a Hindu. Had no idea that computers were so religious. icons, avatars, insteresting.

There, I have up an experimental "avatar." Not really the kind of captain I had in mind, but here we are. It gives me time to come up with something later.
