The trio vs. the pirate-ladyman Recently lis opined that no native Utard remembers Lighthouse 20, the kid show that was broadcast on UHF channel 20. Now I have a slight dispute with lis, in that I remember the pirate on the show was played by a woman, and she recalls someone very different (a man, I presume). Now Lighthouse 20 was not by any means my favorite show (hell I think it replaced Gillagan's Island!), but I do remember it--not really fondly but I remember it. The real purpose of my writing is that I made the comparison of Lighthouse 20 to Hotel Balderdash--a show that apparently ran for 10 years on channel four here in SLC. Now this show was the bomb; not only did it start at 6:00 am 6:45 am and show nothing but 30's-late 40's Warner Brothers cartoons (you know, Bugs and Daffy, but not Porky Pig and certainly not that crap WB churned out from the 50s onward.) These cartoons, of course, were made for adults and the humor was mostly sophisticated in a slapstick kind...
We need to have an SLCC half court tournament.
ReplyDeleteFunny you should mention that because as we were leaving the play ground I said "We need to get Picky out to play some two-on-two." You see I've used your HS nickname in the most effective, on-the-court fashion: a taunt to someone who wasn't even there.
ReplyDeleteBasketball makes me an asshole.
Holy God, you lost 35 pounds. Good on ya! How long did it take?
ReplyDeleteSince January. I just followed the ELFS diet: Eat Less Food, Stupid.
ReplyDeleteActually I have felt great throughout the whole affair.
Picky is definitely up for some 2 on 2. Or how about some 1 on 3? Boo ya!

ReplyDeleteMaybe if I drive around the East Bench long enough I can find a pickup game?
