Rocky and Bullwinkle

We always laughed when Bullwinkle said,
Watch me pull a rabbit out of my hat!
He and Rocky of course were the stars,
But there was more to it than that

Boris Badenov was bad enough,
With Natasha Fatale don't you know
If she asked, "Why, only one darlink?"
Boris replied, "Is low budget show!"

Scheming and Preening his slick moustache
Snidely Whiplash, the worst of men
Would tie Nell to the railroad track,
But ended up with, "Curses foiled again!"

Because a Royal Canadian Mountie
Dudley Do-right would do right of course
By saving the fair Nell Fenwick,
But she seemed more enthralled with his horse!

Though we mostly wanted to be outside
Saturday morning was cartoon time
So we would sit still and watch them
Sharing a coke, we bought for a dime!

Yeah. Seems like they probably aren't appreciated so much now, since they are on every day. Oh well! Thanks for commenting!..........pat

So much fun to read! Have you seen the short film: “The Cat Came Back.” https://youtu.be/h01U0JAR-4o There is a hilarious scene with several people tied to the railroad tracks.

Yeah, I think that was a nod to some of the old silent movies with the bad guy all dressed in black, with a cape! I haven't even heard of "The cat came back" but I'll check it out now!......Have a good one!.....pat
