ChasingBlueSky 0 #1 May 27, 2005 Does anyone else remember these? I made an off hand comment about "No news is good g-news with Garry Gnu" and only one person had heard of it. Same for "bing - bing - bing! Ricochet Rabbit!" Then I felt old when I asked about Tennessee Tuxedo, got the same reaction and was told that most in the office were not born yet when that was on. I got nearly the same for Fractured Fairy Tales and Underdog!_________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me....
