I love that story!

Saturday mornings. I believe it started for me with Huckleberry Hound and then the Jetsons. Soon, we switched over to Happy Trails Theatre, the Lone Ranger, Rin Tin Tin and Sky King. I so badly wanted to be either Penny or Dale Evans.

Yup. Penny was swell! Dale was such a good friend. I couldn't say cowboys — I called them the equivalent of “kybuys”. My older boy cousins couldn't say Indians — it was “engines”, but between the three of us we played kybuys and engines all the day long when we got together. I always got to be the “engine” and I made sure they respected me, too. ;-)

Truly, those shows did teach us respect for each other and right and wrong. We owe all those who played those parts most would turn their noses up at today, a great debt for so much of our love of country, God and all mankind. It took a bunch of Commies to derail the nation of the healthiest and best the world had to offer. Church on Sundays, respect for education and each other, and now they want to off us. Go figure. I miss us.

Those warm, magical childhood days of Saturday morning cartoons, accompanying by Campbells Chicken Noodle soup and grilled cheese sandwiches.

Gone forever with children’s programming today that has to deliver “a message”.

Sigh.
