Gentle Readers and Dear Friends although it is cold, and rainy and windy - I do not think there is any snow in our future . The temps are hovering in the low 50's which translates into wet without snow. Although sad - it could be worse and this will blow out by the first part of next week.

I do thank you for all the great comments for yesterdays post - and the Lolly also thanks you. She is now asking about her royalties and says she is completely overworked as a world famous fashion model and underwear spokes-hound. I think she has called an agent and there will be litigation in my near future - spoiled hound!!!

In the comment from Alice she jogged a long ago memory and I had to find a clip. She mentioned Penelope Pitstop a character on "The Wacky Races" - September 1968-January 1969 - a great Saturday Morning Cartoon from Hanna-Barbera,. Although short lived I remember therm from the Saturday morning line up we watched as children and sitting in front of the TV eating cinnamon rolls or orange rolls hot from the oven that my Mom would make - a real weekend treat. Here is the clip of the characters from the show....
I loved Mutley!!

Remember Sunday night is the Oscars - I am sure I'll have something to say about that come Monday morning!!
There you go sports fans. Thanks for stopping by and have a great weekend!!
Take care,
edgar
Hope you have a great weekend and find time to get a few stitches done!
ReplyDeleteI LOVED Wacky Races! :) Especially Penelope Pitstop and the Ant Hill Mob. Great memories :)
ReplyDeleteI used to watch that too! Ant Hill Mob were great. Have a great weekend. x
ReplyDeleteOh what you reminded me of. I had forgotten all about that cartoon.We watched it on Saturday mornings too.It was the cartoon hour with Disney and Hana Barbera!Thank you for reminding me.AriadnefromGreece!
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh Edgar! I had forgotten the name of this cartoon! My husband and I were trying to recall it a few months back! Yes! I remember that!
ReplyDeleteHope Rico had a nice birthday!
OMG--My mother laughs JUST like Muttley. I'm a little younger than you; we watched Laff-a-lympics.
ReplyDeleteI thought of your underwear-snuggling dog this morning as I was sorting the laundry. As I tossed each sock/panty/bra into their pile, a small, pesky cat was there to catch each item and 'help' it into the pile. Snuggling would be so much nicer! ; )
ReplyDeleteThanks for the clip Edgar... loved that show.
ReplyDeleteI loved that show! Dastardly and Muttley with that laugh! Thanks for the clip. Nancy D.
ReplyDeleteLove love loved that show! I was a Penelope Pitstop girl myself. :) How about "The Banana Splits?"
ReplyDeleteThat Lolly is beyond sweet, Edgar. Pa and I oogled over her this morning, and laughed because our Teagan loves the warm towels right out of the dryer and somehow knows when it's towel time, she stands right next to me as I take the clothes out and will crawl right into the basket. Gotta love our babies.
Have a great weekend...Perhaps you might share Rico's taco recipe? :)
XOXO

First SF snowfall since 1976! Hope you will post photos of the "snow much fun" you all and the hoo hounds are having :)
ReplyDeleteI LOVED Mutley, too, especially his laugh! Thanks for the TV clip, and for the wonderful memories.
ReplyDeleteMy children all loved to watch Wacky Races, Edgar and that was in the 80s! They also loved Mutley because they said he laughed like their Dad!!
