Rather Disturbing question but...

[Serkanner]

Playin' solitaire till dawn
With a deck of fifty-one
Smokin' ciggarettes and watchin'
Captain Kangaroo
Don't tell me I got nothing to do.

Pulp Fiction ... Butch driving home/leaving home to get his watch.

The Statler Brothers! [That's a great soundtrack, BTW.]

how many people here know who Captain Kangaroo was ?

(w/o googling, you pathetic cheaters ...)

I've always assumed it was some junk kids TV from back in the day.

I watched it religiously.

Well, please keep in mind that the person who started the thread was a teenage boy who from all indications isn't really playing with a full deck ... and is probably mostly playing with himself.

WIN.

I hated Captain Kangaroo. I was an Electric Company adn Zoom man myself.

the Captain got a little weird on into the seventies when my boys were young - about the time
Lumpy Brannum (Mr GreenJeans) got really wiped out on the coke - lots of stuff got left on the
cutting room floor - I remember have a real bad trip in 69 behind that goddamn moose-puppet ....

I think the attitude is more "Look what I can do! And you can't stop me! There are plenty of stooges out there who will eat this shit up; you know it and I know it, so like it or lump it! Ha ha ha!"


But really, when I think about it, I really hope that Kevin does believe himself to be a good writer, and that he honestly thinks this shit is his best work.

I prefer the image of him as a total fool.
