Ahhh, the Puritans are at it again. Pretty soon we’ll have the stocks for folks who eat dessert before dinner.

no big deal. No one watches the nightly news anymore on network either. Same reasons. My kids watch cartoons via Netflix or Comcast on demand. Too many choices out there.
Plus Youtube lets you show your kids the old Looney Tunes classics. Also, video games. My kids arent allowed to use video games during the week, just Friday night and Saturday. They would choose a couple hours of Wii or Mine Craft over cartoons any day.

Pretty soon well have the stocks for folks who eat dessert before dinner. Then those of us who eat dessert FOR dinner better stay locked and loaded.

I remember looking forward to Saturday morning cartoons. Scooby, Spidey, Tom & Jerry...even a lesson about how a Bill becomes law. Another reason for me to feel old now, I guess.

You can get
350+ Looney Tunes cartoons for about $100 on dvd and let the kids watch them over and over and over. That is a lot of cartoons.
Cartoons have gone downhill for years, and Saturday morning cartoons have been horrible. With DVD, you can have high-quality.

Filling a cereal bowl with artificially colored sugar pebbles and staring at the tube was every kid's weekend plan.
Well, early morning plans, anyway - "Overture, curtain lights....".
