My job is not so bad...

[Haggis Killer]

Art Clokey came to Pixar last week. He was in a wheelchair, though, so I didn't kick him in the crotch.

Didn't he invent Saran Wrap?

I hate it when the HK name drops people I don't know but probably should if I had had a decent education.

[Haggis Killer]

Art Clokey. Creator of Gumby fer chrissake.

I guess I just forget sometimes how much older I am than you.

Wait....

[Greg_phpbb3_import1]

That's the disease you get when you are older. Now what was it called.

All this time, I've been trying to think up some kind of iron crotch/gumby pun. I thought I had something with Pokey, but no...

Gumby is still messed up, btw. Those colors - yikes! Tara didn't get through it and I was thankful because it was dredging up bad flashbacks. The only episode of Gumby I ever got was when Pkey ate the bad mushroom...

[Haggis Killer]

Benzilla LOVES Gumby. I loved him too, as a lad. No bad flashbacks for me. Yeah, the colors. Washed out. Shot on cheap film, so not much hope there. Still, I love the Blockheads. I mean, Gumby is SO punk, right? Way punker than Bow Wow Wow, anyway.

[Drunk Monk]

Eddie Murphy nailed Gumby. Who'd a thunk it was prophesy about the course of his career? I thought he was going somewhere with 48 hours but now it's his cartoon characters that make the most bank. Anyway, as a kid I found Gumby disturbing the same way that H.R. Puffinstuff bothered me. Now I think I just didn't care much for the aesthetic composition of it as a child.

Sid & Marty Kroft....

Yipe.

I never liked Pufnstuff. I had a lot of friends that did, but I'm reasonably certain they all became drug addicts. The only S&MK show I watched reasonably often was the Banana Splits. Although I did check out Sigmund and the Sea Monster, but only because it starred Billy Barty as the Sea Monster.

[The Queen]

Wasn't Land of the Lost another Kroft production? That show was hideously awful, but I recall being totally hooked on it.

[Greg_phpbb3_import1]

With Anthony Kiedis of the Red Hot Chili Peppers as Chaka.

[Drunk Monk]

OK, that's a fair cop. I enjoyed both Land of the Lost and Banana Splits too. Beware the Sleestak!

[Drunk Monk]

ms. iron crotch just stopped by and gave us all homemade chocolate chip cookies. she's a marvelous cook - cooks all sorts of healthy taoist chow. bet you didn't know chocolate chip cookies are healthy taoist chow. dang! i shoulda grabbed more. yummmm.

[Dr. Ivor Yeti]

and S&MK did do "Land of the Lost"??!?! But, that had a, you know, that thing, whaddaya call it, a...PLOT! Yeah! that's it! A plot! Are you sure they were involved? Maybe it was during their "rehab" phase.

Lidsville, my friends...fear the Lidsville...

[Drunk Monk]

Mrs IC is quite fastidious, actually, always well dressed and groomed.

Pufnstuff, gumby, iron crotch cookies, Anthony Kiedis, thsi thread is messed up. We got some weird jobs here.

Mandy Patinkin walked by my office earlier today and Ray Harryhausen is downstairs right now signing copies of his new book.
