Sorry Walt.........apparently you're wrong

My daughter loves this new show on PBS called "It's A Big Big World". It's about a group of animals living in a rainforest. There's a frog, a fish, a bird, a turtle, an anteater, 2 monkeys and the main character is Snook the Sloth. It teaches them about all kinds of things in life. It's a great concept. She loves the songs and regardless of what she is doing, she stops...........turns...........and dances with a huge smile on her face. It's the cutest thing.

I am actually not posting about this because of how cute my daughter is, but because my wife and I decided that Snook is a definate stoner. He moves real slow, sleep a lot, and starts every with a little giggle and says, "Awww, hey..........". If you click here, it will bring you to the show's homepage and you can hear him talk. He even makes reference to "Enjoying the ride", which is metioned in the Grateful Dead song, "Hell in a Bucket".

I know this is a pointless post, but I wanted to share this with you.....

That was my Highschool Senior Quote in my yearbook: I may be going to hell in a bucket, but at least I'm enjoying the ride!!

Still true to this day!!

Ah!!! If only the real world could be as mellow as the world tree, and people could care about each other like the animals in the tree do. The dream of the 60's .

I watch a lot of childrens programming with my daughter, so it's always funny to me when I catch stuff like this. I have to check this show out.
