Finally! Thank you Matt for posting a picture of T.H.I.N.G.S. on here. Those were the most sought after toys in my 4th grade class. I had about 6 of them but I stupidly let one of my friends borrow all but one. Then he moved to Florida and took my T.H.I.N.G.S. with him. Ever since then I’ve been trying to remember what those toys were called. The "Lance-A-Lot-O-Rings" one was the best.

Well Matt, you’ve inspired me. I plan on attending Lazer Tag Academey next Fall. And if they won’t take me, then I’m off to Bovine University.

Bionic Six was one of the few "action" cartoons I liked. Right up there w/ Dinosaucers (another show in need of X-E treatment).

As for Fat Albert, I used to like it when I was a kid but when the Animaniacs were being "leased" out in one cartoon I enjoyed how they made fun of it.

I love Fat Albert for being funny and still dealing with issues that can not even be brought up on kid’s television today. I am sure Matt could have fun with the more extreme episodes: http://www.filmationarchives.com/sinister.htm

Unfortunately, the changes they have made with the director and star for the live-action movie took me from slightly optimistic to worried. Kenan Thompson (Saturday Night Live and Kenan & Kel) will star as Fat Albert http://filmforce.ign.com/moremovies/objects/34842.html

It is a shame because when Forest Whitaker was set to direct he had found the perfect Fat Albert: Omar Benson Miller

#16 is Disney’s Children’s Favorites records – they were sets of kids songs sold on TV back in the late seventies/early eighties if I remember right.

Yay! The Misfits! I love them almost as much as I love… Ralph Wiggum. I know Dude McGuy understands.

Most of those objects displayed are ones I remember. I’m in the mood for a MCDLT. They need to come back out with them. Those THINGS were cool had two of them. The frog one and the Gorilla under the bridge. Hope they are future reviews.

Here’s some trivia: Dinosaucers never got any toys. Isn’t that a ripoff?

Next time you’re at a cookout or buffet, try making your own McDLT. It’ll be cool. And it’ll be hot.

What does the D stand for?

Dookie or Diearhea?

Chestnuts roasted by Rowan Steele @ 04/15/2004 9:08 AM


Got milk?

Hey, Matt, I just came across a complete (if a bit markered up) Who Framed Roger Rabbit? coloring book. There are coloring pages, plus "exciting activities". Interested?

"D" stands for drippy. All of that fresh lettuce and tomato really made a heck of a mess when plopped onto a greasy burger.

Oh, and does anyone know how to get the smell of cat pee off of things? Our cat has some kind of incontience issues, and relieved herself in my kids’ playroom. It reeks. I tried rug shampooing, Febreeze and bleach and water. Is this one of those things you use tomato juice for? Like skunk spray?

trajeal:

Hate to burden you with bad news but it’s gonna stay. live with the smell or buy new carpet. Dog urine is much easier to get rid of.

cat urine…you gotta fight fire with fire…so fight cat piss odor with ammonia….which is basically what cat piss is made of

just make sure you test it on a corner of your carpet to make sure it doesnt melt it :)

The hot stays hot and the cool stays cool! How do it know?

Chestnuts roasted by kingklash @ 04/15/2004 11:30 AM


Number 17 – I remember those, but cannot, for the life of me, remember anything about them other than that they existed.

Chestnuts roasted by Seth Christenfeld @ 04/15/2004 11:39 AM


Oh, and DeathFrogurt – there were DinoSaucers toys designed, but they were never released. There are pictures http://www.toyarchive.com/Dinosaucers/Dinosaucers.html">here.

Goddamn, did that show kick ass.

Chestnuts roasted by Seth Christenfeld @ 04/15/2004 11:45 AM


Yes indeed no. 9 is scary! I think it’s that doll you taught to talk…right? Hmmm either way it reminds me of that awful movie, Polly.
*shudder*

Oh and a plea for a review on "Little Monsters"
I love that movie!

Chestnuts roasted by Jenner @ 04/15/2004 11:57 AM


Ammonia, huh? I’ll try it. It can’t get much worse, that’s for sure. Thanks, -Jen-.

Here’s a good stinker for a movie review: Shark 3: Megalodon. If these comments don’t sway you, I don’t know what will: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0313597/board/nest/7270483

MEANWHILE….. In her secret headquarters, The Blind, Killer Duck launches her plans for world domination…..

Chestnuts roasted by kingklash @ 04/15/2004 2:06 PM


I think #9 is Cricket. If it is, I so suck for remembering that. A guy, drawing blanks on a number of the action figures, but I sure as hell know my dolls.

Since everyone else is making requests here’s mine: Review of Monster Squad. The Wolfman’s got nards.

Monster Squad was a decent movie. One of my favorites as a kid.
