On the Sat morning shoSw Froggie would be invisible til the MC would say, “Pluck your magic Twanger, Froggie.” and he would become visable saying, “Hi ya kids .Hi Ya! Hi Ya! Hi Ya!”.
Seems like she should have a Magic Twanger and all she should have to do is say, “Hi Mower. Start! Start! Start!”
Isn’t it great getting to sit back and tell people how things should be done. Wait, isn’t that what a consultant gets paid big bucks for doing? and his I sit at 0140 hours doung it for nothing. What is wrong with this picture.
A couple of typos inthe above comment. They didn’t change the meaning or intent. However, PLEASE BRING BACK THE CHANCE TO EDIT OUR BOO-BOOS! The preceding was not a paid poitical announcement. It was just a request
Andy Devine! I just "saw* him again recently as Friar Tuck in Disney’s Robin Hood and wondered where I’d heard of him and his voice before. Nice to put a face to a voice.
During Vietnam, I was stationed at HQMC, Washington DC (briefly) and a Article 15 sentenced me to 2 weeks restriction (don’t ask) and Extra Police Duty. Asked the Sgt what to do. He handed me nail clippers and said, “Mow the lawn.” Being a good Marine I was at sick bay in the morning with bleeding blisters. Got out of Extra Police Duty.

^ Yeah, I grew up with a kid-powered lawn mower. Good incentive to mow the lawn often — it’s hard to push those things if the grass gets too tall!

What’s a buzzard doing with manicure scissors?
For that matter, why does the forest need mowing?

I didn’t think you were allowed to pluck your magic twanger on television!
