    You'll wash it afterward, right? Because there's no greater tragedy than a once-used spork.

    Don't remember Starblazers. I do remember Thundar, the Barbarian. That seemed like pretty intense show.

    Covering football. Lots and lots of football. Possibly some soccer mixed in. And I'd give you my computer (because it's four-years-old) if I could get a legitimate replacement. ;D

    Nah. I'll just whistle the theme from Doug instead.

    I'm naming my first son Porkchop.
     
  8. Thundarr the Barbarian. Had a colleague back in the day in Dothan and we'd often reference "Ookla, the Mock" and chuckle while our colleagues looked on in bewilderment.

    Of course like KYSportsWriter I truly dug "The Adventures of Pete & Pete" though it was on when I was in my early 20s. Had a girlfriend at the time who was an elementary school teacher and she watched it. It remains a brilliant show so much that I found the run on DVD last year and bought it. After all, what other show had great guest stars like Iggy Pop, Michael Stipe, Kate Pierson and Syd Straw! The theme, too, by Polaris, is fabulous.

    As for Rocko? Sheer utter genius. I've got my three-year-old kid watching it now and he adores it.
