So, I just discovered that Angela, Sesame Street's daycare teacher from the early 90s, was Gordon's cousin. Go figure.:

I learned a few things:

1. How to make a photo calendar on the Walgreens website.
2. That Alan Menken wrote the music for Little Shop of Horrors, in addition to the Disney Renaissance movies.
3. How to (comfortably) ride a bike. I'm 18 years old.

Huh.

Found out the same producers of Angry Beavers were behind the production of the C.O.W. Boys of Moo Mesa cartoon. Not the creators, though...that was Mirage Studios collaborator Ryan Brown.

Heck, Angry Beavers' creator was executive producer.
