Grandma Susie's House of FUNNERS 'N FLOOZIES (Volume V)

*Prelicked* Vampires?

Vegan zombies!

heyjude should like that. They only eat the heads of lettuce and cauliflower.

Helloooo, that is Bunnicula! The vampire bunny who sucks the juices out of veggies.
BEEEWARREEE

Did you get Count Duckula in Americaland?

I used to love that programme!

*jazz hands*

I've never heard of Count Duckula, but it might have been after my time as a kid.

Did you ever see Sky King in reruns in England? It was actually shown sometimes in the 1950s but they used to show it on Saturday morning during the kiddie show time. A friend and I always mocked it because it was so silly (an airplane pilot who chases bad guys); then, years later, I read a book by Bill Bryson (or was it Stephen King?) and he is mocking it too. "The bad guys had to linger about the end of whatever landing strip was handy and wait for Sky King to land, taxi the plane to a stop, then have Sky get out and yell, 'Stop right there!'"

That was in a Bill Bryson book. Not sure which one.

The Thunderbolt Kid, I think.

There were quite a few TV shows they did in the 50s that were pretty simplistic; they later came back in reruns as kiddie shows.

Highway Patrol was another one that was almost a goof.

Just had to jump into this rapidly-moving thread and say this ^ is an epic idea.

Giving kenthepen extra bonus points.

Susie, I hope Howie's doing better today. That really sucks about the pain med snafu!

I was a Speed Racer fan myself.

I remember Count Duckula... It was quite funny when I was a kid. Haven't seen it in probably 20 years though.

I remember Count Chocula.

Out of the clear blue of the western sky comes . . .

I remember wanting Count Chocula, but we were too poor and my mom always bought Puffed Wheat.

I HATE puffed wheat....and grape jelly. Just cause it was like 5 cents cheaper than strawberry!!

Puffed Wheat? That was almost as bad as Shredded Wheat.

It was, like exploded bits of wheat balls covered with sugar.

I vaguely remember it. Shredded Wheat was like eating a Brillo pad.

I ate cereal as a kid, but I probably only have it a few times a year now. Mostly just corn flakes.

ugh, I really don't like shredded wheat.

Hey everyone, just wanted to thank you all for the hugs, prayers, pms, reps, posts, and everything. I can't answer 'em all right now, I have to get up at six for work, but will when I can. luv you guys and missed you. I'm good. Many thanks my friends.

Susie, good to hear that the surgery went well. Sorry Howie was in a lot of pain, though. Hope that doesn't last long and is better now that he has his meds. Hugs to you and Howie, I hope he gets better real soon. <3

And I hope your dad is doing better, Syd.

I've been behaving while your were away, n-f.

I'm sure you were. I couldn't read back through everything I missed, but the posts I scanned over clearly looked like you were behaving...but then again, I really didn't read them that good.

Trust me.
