Thank you for sharing it with us.

Icarus

Thank you Sandy. That is beautiful and meaningful.

Another favorite, sung to the tune of Hallelujah (the Leonard Cohen one, not the other one)

Loving those songs. Some of the lyrics are a little strangled but all good.

A Wish For Wings That Work

This is based on Berkeley Breathed's 1991 children's book A Wish for Wings That Work: An Opus Christmas Story.
The TV special aired on December 18, 1991. In a 2003 Washington Post interview, Breathed responded thusly to a question about where one could find a VHS or DVD copy of the cartoon:

QuoteHopefully in the rubbish pail. We can do better than that and we will with an eventual Opus film... but I'm glad you enjoyed it. I presume your family was on speed when they watched it. I would imagine it helps.

The penguin's nightmare, the support group meeting and its members were hilarious.  :lol:

This one is OK, though I don't particularly cotton to the use of portrait mode for videos, especially when landscape would be much more appropriate.

^^Enjoyed that Tom, it was both funny and educational.


If you grew up back in the olden day's you most likely remember seeing adds for "Sea Monkeys" similar to this one in comic books or similar magazines like "Mad", etc..or for similar products like X-Ray Specs.


The following video is about Harold von Braunhut (1926-2003) who was the inventor/marketer behind X-Ray Specs, and Amazing Sea-Monkeys. (Apparently and unknown to me von Braunhut was also a nasty racist who, even though he was Jewish, supported the KKK and other white supremacist groups.)

I never bought or ordered these wonderful creatures myself, but I alway's enjoyed the adds and wonderful illustrations of Joe Orlando.

It's a little long, butt well done. Enjoy.

Though I never got around to buying any Sea Monkeys myself either, I found the video  interesting and entertaining. Thanks for posting it, Bruno de la Pole:)
