Favorite Cartoons?

If there was only one thing I had to pick that I really appreciated about being born when I was (1984) - it would be that I arguably grew up during the heyday of cartoonary. I caught the best. Today's kids have watered down junk to watch like Dora the Explorer, Bob the Builder, and Spongebob Sqaurepants (OK, I like it a little). So listed below are some of the many cartoons I grew up with, it should cause some 80s/early 90s reminiscing, lol.

1. He-Man
2. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
3. Winnie the Pooh (really, how can you not like it???)
4. Eureka's Castle (not technically a cartoon)...
5. Inspector Gadget (where the real hero was a dog and a 7 year old blonde pigtailed girl)
6. Rugrats (where the hero was a bald 1 year old and the villian was a 3 year old)
7. Ahhhh Real Monsters
8. Angry Beavers (neeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee)
9. Nozzles
10. Ren & Stimpy (you eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeediot!)

Boredom has Struck

We're just about to enter the Black Hole of Calcutta, sports edition. At least this year the Knicks are entertaining - good win tonight. Anyway, we'll take a sharp right turn and veer wildly away from sports/baseball until the start of ST, outside of reporting on the CWS, of course. So our first topic will be:

Name Your Top 10 Music Albums (it's totally subjective, and might spark some debate/fun)

1. Matchbox 20 - Yourself or Someone Like You
2. Depeche Mode - Ultra
3. Depeche Mode - Playing the Angel
4. Matchbox 20 - More Than You Think You Are
5. Fastball - All the Pain Money Can Buy
6. U2 - Joshua Tree
7. Pearl Jam - Ten
8. Gin Blossoms - Dusted
9. Soul Asylum - Grave Dancer's Union
10. Goo Goo Dolls - Dizzy up the Girl

BTW - there are no games tonight, so no WLR tomorrow, which is why I felt the need to do this.
