TIDBITS® REMEMBERS OUR FAVORITE

CARTOONS,PART TWO

by Kathy Wolfe

This week, Tidbits continues reminiscing about our best-loved animated series. We hope we hit on your Saturday morning favorite!

• Who knows how a cartoon with a dog named Too Much would have fared? Probably not as well as Scooby Doo, the name Hanna and Barbera opted to use for the lovable Great Dane. Originally, Daphne was to be known as Kelly, Fred as Geoff, Velma as Linda, and Shaggy as W.W. The program was slated to be called “W-Who’s S-S-Scared” with a sheepdog named Too Much. As the CBS producer was review-ing the artwork, he was listening to a Frank Sinatra recording of “Strangers in the Night,” and the lyrics reminded him of “Scooby-dooby-doo.” The sheep-dog was axed and the Great Dane was in.• Do you recognize the names of Lazy, Clumsy, Brainy, Harmony, Greedy and Jokey? No, they’re not part of the Seven Dwarfs, they are the Smurfs, those blue-hued creatures created by a Belgian car-toonist named Peyo. Although they were first seen in 1958, they didn’t appear in North America until 1981 when the series was picked up by NBC. Papa Smurf and his crew won several Emmy Awards before their cancellation in 1990. • “Oh curses, foiled again!” was the line regularly delivered by arch villain Snidely Whiplash on “The Dudley Do-right Show.” Canadian Mountie Do-right spent his time riding his horse backwards across the countryside, rescuing the fair damsel in distress Nell Fenwick, whom Snidely frequently lashed to the rail-road tracks.

How many times has a catchy little theme song gotten stuck in your head? Here’s a stroll down memory lane, remembering some of those car-toon jingles that we loved to hum. • Many of us know that Spiderman “does what-ever a spider can.” But what comes after “spins a web, any size”? It’s “catches thieves just like flies!” His superhuman strength is explained in verse two of the theme song. “Listen, Bud. He’s got radioac-tive blood.”• The little blue Smurfs administered good advice when they sang to their viewers, “Next time you’re feeling blue, just let a smile begin, happy things will come to you.” • If you didn’t know all the names of the Jetson family, they were given to you in the theme song, “Meet George Jetson, Jane his wife, daughter Judy, his boy Elroy.”• A bear of very little brain lived deep in the Hundred-Acre Wood. This “tubby little cubby all stuffed with fluff” was, of course, Winnie the Pooh, that “willy nilly silly old bear.” • He was “one tough Gazookus which hates all Palookas.” He “biffed ‘em and buffed ‘em and always out-roughed ‘em.” Who sang these words during the opening of his program? Popeye, of course!• There were no words to sing along to for “Jonny Quest.” A 20-member jazz band, heavy on the drums, provided the music for this cartoon. • When do you need to “step aside or you might end up in a heap”? That would be “when you’re on a highway and the Roadrunner goes ‘Beep! Beep!’”• “He always says ‘Hello’ and he’s really glad to meetcha. The children all love him so.” Who is he? He’s Casper the Friendly Ghost, created in the late 1930s and hitting the screen in 1950. • He was “strong as he can be.” But he frequently forgot to “watch out for that tree.” He was George of the Jungle, a not-so-bright, loincloth-clad parody of Tarzan. The program aired for only 17 episodes in 1967. • Words spoken over the final movement of Rossini’s “William Tell Overture” provided the opening for the “Lone Ranger” series. The ani-mated version of the 1930s radio program aired from 1966 to 1968. “Hi-Yo, Silver! Away!” was the cry of this “daring and resourceful masked rider of the Plains” who “led the fight for law and order in the early West” along with his fearless Indian friend Tonto.• The “world’s most fearsome fighting team” were “really hip” according to the theme song. These green “heroes in a half-shell” were the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Leonardo, Michelangelo, Donatello and Raphael, named after four Renais-sance artists. They started battling crime from their home in the storm sewers of New York City in 1987.• Josie and the Pussycats had “no time for purrs and pats” as they donned their “long tails and ears for hats.” This all-girl pop music group toured the word in their leopard-print leotards, encountering all sorts of adventures with miscellaneous villains. Each episode featured a Pussycats song played during the girls’ various chase scenes.

Hedy Lamarr was so breathtakingly beautiful, she was never expected to be much more than set dressing in most of her films. Throughout the 1940s, Lamarr was epitome of glamour and sex appeal and had one of the most recogniz-able faces in Hollywood. Her image dominated magazine covers, her misadventures made international news headlines and her hyper-sexualized roles seemed to mirror her own tumultuous life.Lamarr was born in Vienna in 1914, the pam-pered daughter of a Jewish banker. After several insignificant roles, she appeared in “Ecstasy,” a notorious Czech art film issued in 1933. It launched her acting career. In Hol-lywood, she eventually co-starred in several major productions that included “Boom Town,” “White Cargo” and Cecil B. DeMille’s “Samson and Delilah.” Between her film projects, she managed to find time to marry six times and have a substantial number of well-publicized affairs. Ruth Barton, a lecturer in film studies at Trinity College in Dublin, has written a fascinating bi-ography about this rather elusive star. Her first challenge was to separate the real Hedy La-marr from the myths, an especially difficult task since much of what was reported about the actress during her lifetime -- even the “facts” published in her 1966 autobiography “Ecstasy and Me” -- are full of inaccuracies. Although a biographer can never really tell the complete story of a celebrity, Barton comes as close to the truth as we are likely to get.Lamarr was more than just a beautiful woman, Barton writes. Her talent for mathematics led her to co-develop spread-spectrum technology during World War II, an innovation that is still used today in mobile-phone and Wi-Fi commu-nications, as well as a radio-controlled torpedo-guidance system.

Every Monday night, a parade of desperate in-dividuals enter the Harrisons’ pawn shop. Some have odd or interesting stuff to sell, like an antique barber chair or a rare coin or pinball machine, or vintage Army flamethrower. Others bring in things -- like the legendary Taj Mahal Treasure -- that make you ask, “Why are these idiots trying to sell this at a pawn shop instead of auctioning it off at Christies?” It’s this bizarre mix of the mundane, odd and out-right mind-blowingly ridiculous that makes “Pawn Stars” one of the most entertaining reality shows on TV. The Season Two set contains all 32 epi-sodes and some bonus footage.

PICKS OF THE WEEK

There aren’t any major movie releases this week, but Boy Howdy are there some awe-some TV series boxed sets coming out.

Lost: The Complete Sixth & Final Season/Lost: The Complete Collection (Unrated) -- Two huuuuge releases for Losties this week: The final season’s boxed set and a massive, goody-laden collection of the complete series. The Season 6 set is just about what you’d expect: All the episodes, audio commentaries, bloopers, deleted scenes, a couple of supple-mental featurettes, plus the much-hyped coda featuring the adventures of Hugo and Ben Linus after the events of the finale as they take on the job of being caretakers of the island.“The Complete Collection” is more than just a boxed set of all six seasons. It’s 38 discs (one of which contains all-new never-before-seen content); more than 30 hours of bonus mate-rial; plus, a replica of the island, episode guide, an ankh, black light and a playable Senet game with black and white stones.The packaging of “The Complete Collection” is simply awesome. Of course, Awesome comes at a price, so expect to pony up anywhere from $150 to $230.

Pawn Stars: Season Two (Unrated) -- Just about everyone has their reality-show guilty pleasure. Some folks get their kicks with the guidos on the “Jersey Shore,” but for my mon-ey, I’ll take Las Vegas and the Harrison clan. The History Channel’s “Pawn Stars” is the perfect storm of kitsch, white-trash drama and High Weirdness. It’s like “Antiques Roadshow” made a baby with the gang from “American Chopper.”

¥ It was American drama critic and author John Mason Brown who made the following sage observation: “Reasoning with a child is fine if you can reach the child’s reason without destroying your own.” ¥ The first Wal-Mart was located in the town of Rogers, Ark. When it opened in 1962, it had a total of 16,000 square feet of space. Today, there are Wal-Mart Supercenters all over the United States, and they measure at least 100,000 square feet and can range up to 220,000 square feet. ¥ The original Maytag company was known for making horse-drawn buggies rather than appli-ances. ¥ The word “pretzel” comes from the Latin word for “little reward.” ¥ Researchers at Johns Hopkins University and the University of Pennsylvania conducted a joint study on Americans’ weight. They concluded that if current trends continue, 86 percent of adults in this country will be obese by 2030. ¥ Before H. Ross Perot became a success-ful businessman -- and had a brief, somewhat less successful career as a politician -- he broke horses for a living. ¥ Statistics show that three out of four married women over the age of 50 are on their second marriage. In the same age range, five out of six men are in the same marital situation.

¥ Fireflies start to glow in order to attract a mate, and they die soon after finding one.

CARTOONS, Part Two (continued):• Before he was Elmer Fudd, he was known as Egghead, and was created by Tex Avery with an egg-shaped head on a pudgy body with a bulbous nose. After a little re-designing, Elmer as we know him made his debut opposite Bugs Bunny in the 1940 cartoon feature “A Wild Hare.”• Can you name your favorite Loony Tunes character associated with these catchphrases? The first one is easy: “Be vewy, vewy quiet, I’m hunt-ing wabbits,” belonged to big game hunter Elmer Fudd. Bugs Bunny frequently asked Fudd, “What’s up, Doc?” How about “You’re desthpicable!” That belonged to a lisping Daffy Duck, while “Sufferin’ succotash!” was the trademark of Sylvester the Cat, created in 1945. Sylvester was continually in pursuit of Tweety Bird, who, “tawt he taw a putty tat,” and Porky Pig wrapped things up with, “Th-th-that’s all, folks!”• When we hear the name Tweety, an innocent, wide-eyed yellow canary comes to mind. But that’s not the way he was first created. In his initial stages, he was pink and named Orson, and was a bad-tempered bird that harassed putty tats. Bob Clampett, the cartoonist who transformed Orson into Tweety in 1942, based his creation on his own unbecoming baby pictures. Clampett was also the creator of Beany and his sea serpent pal Cecil, and contributed to the design of Bugs Bunny, Porky Pig and Daffy Duck.• Daffy Duck is actually older than Bugs Bunny. Daffy was first seen in the 1937 cartoon feature “Porky’s Duck Hunt,” while Bugs didn’t come along until 1938’s “Porky’s Hare Hunt.” Bugs didn’t say, “What’s up, Doc?” until the 1940 feature “A Wild Hare.”• A smelly little skunk loved Paris in the spring-time and continually sought a love of his own. Pepe LePew was introduced in 1945, but with a differ-ent name, “Stinky.” In later features, Pepe spent his time pursuing what he thought was a female skunk, but in actuality was a black cat who had squeezed under a freshly-painted fence, re-sulting in a white stripe down her back. Pepe was the star of “For Scent-imental Reasons,” winner of the Academy Award in 1959 for Best Short Subject Cartoons.

• Jonny Quest hit the small screen in 1964, starring the 11-year-old title character, his U.S. government scientist father, Dr. Benton Quest, their bodyguard and pilot Race Bannon, adopted Indian son Hadji, and the bulldog, Bandit. It differed from other Sat-urday morning fare in that it was a serious program, full of danger and espionage. Dr. Quest adopted Hadji shortly after the boy saved his life by thwart-ing an assassination attempt on the good doctor’s life. Originally, the family pet was intended to be a monkey, but the producers settled on the mischie-vous bulldog before production began. • Jim Backus gained fame for his role as eccen-tric millionaire Thurston Howell III on the 1960s sitcom “Gilligan’s Island,” but in the cartoon world, he was the voice behind the myopic Mr. Magoo, a character created in 1949, whose nearsightedness got him into all sorts of troubles. Don Adams, star of another 1960s sitcom, “Get Smart,” voiced car-toon penguin Tennessee Tuxedo as well. Tennes-see lived at the Megapolis Zoo, along with his best friend Chumley the Walrus. • Singer/songwriter Ross Bagdasarian came up with an innovative idea in 1958 while experimenting with speeds on a record player. He used his own voice recorded at half speed and played back at normal speed to create the Chipmunks: Simon, Theodore and Alvin. Bagdasarian took on the stage name of David Seville, named for the city in Spain where he had been stationed during World War II. His block-buster hit “The Chipmunk Song” (“Christmas, Don’t Be Late”) sold 4.5 million records in seven weeks and paved the way for the CBS program, “The Alvin Show,” which premiered in 1961. The success of the Chipmunks continues to this day, carried on by Bagdasarian’s son, Ross Jr. • It’s TV Guide’s opinion that Sponge Bob Squarepants is the ninth greatest cartoon charac-ter of all time. Created by marine biologist Stephen Hillenburg, a teacher at the Orange County Ocean Institute, this bright yellow sea sponge lives in a two-bedroom pineapple in the community of Bikini Bottom. He shares his abode with his pet snail, Gary, (who meows like a cat), and enjoys working at the Krusty Krab. His best friend is a pink starfish named Patrick Star who lives under a nearby rock. The series premiered in 1999 and continues as one of viewers’ favorites.• You may not recognize the name of Dan Cas-tellaneta, but you’ve probably heard his voice. He speaks the words of Homer Simpson, Krusty the Clown, Barney Gumble and others on the long-run-ning series “The Simpsons.” Premiering in 1989, it is now the longest-running prime-time entertain-ment series and has won 25 Emmy Awards.

IT TAKES TWO by Bonnie St. ClairLaurel without Hardy? Bert without Ernie? Hall without Oates? They just wouldn’t have been the same. Join Tidbits as we share stories behind some famous “people pairs”

and how they managed to discover one another.• In the original story, Batman met the boy who would become Robin in 1940. Dick Grayson was an eight-year-old circus acrobat, the son of trapeze artists. When a gangster who’d been extorting money from the circus sabotaged the riggings, Dick’s parents fell to their deaths. Batman investi-gated the crime, and he became fond enough of the boy to become his legal guardian (as his alter ego, Bruce Wayne). He instructed the youngster in the ways of fighting crime

and dubbed him Robin, the Boy Wonder.• Cherilyn Sarkisian dropped out of school and moved to Hollywood with dreams of becoming an actress. At 17, she met Sonny Bono at Aldo’s Coffee Shop. Bono worked for music producer Phil Spector and was able to get Cher, as he called her, work as a background vocalist. A songwriter at heart, Sonny had peddled his tunes without much success. But when he and Cher became romantically involved, the pair recorded his tune “I Got You, Babe,” which hit number one on the pop chart and made stars of Sonny and Cher.

• One day in 1881, Dr. John Watson happened to rent a room at a lodging house at 221B Baker Street in London, England. His roommate was a mysterious chap named Sherlock Holmes. Holmes was quite secretive about what he did for a living, but eventually confessed that he was a private detective, which (at the time) was a rather rare profession. Fascinated by Holmes’ tales and the way he employed logical deduction to

solve cases, the two became not only friends but also coworkers and confidantes. • That levelheaded, sturdy housewife Blondie wasn’t so very domestic when she first appeared in the newspaper comics section some 70 years ago. Blondie Boopadoop was a carefree flapper back in 1930, when she met Dagwood Bumstead, the young play-boy son of a railroad tycoon. In fact, Dagwood’s millionaire father opposed his son’s re-lationship with Blondie, and threatened to cut off his financial support if they continued seeing one another. The elder Bumstead grudgingly gave his blessing to the marriage, but he still nixed his son’s inheritance, forcing Dagwood to become one of the working

class.• Clyde Barrow was born into extreme poverty in rural Texas. As he came of age, the Great Depression ravaged the nation, and the angry young man turned to burglary and robbery as a means of survival. One December evening in 1929, he was visiting a friend when he heard a clatter in the kitchen. “That’s Bonnie Parker,” the pal told him. “She’s making hot chocolate. Go say hello.” It was love at first sight; the pair chatted into the wee hours of the morning. The next day, Bonnie hit the road with Clyde and the pair

machine-gunned their way to infamy.• Daniel Wesson was born to a family in Worcester, Massachusetts. At 18, he was apprenticed to his brother’s shoe manufacturing company, but grew dissatisfied and joined up with another brother, Edwin, as a journeyman gunsmith. In 1852, Daniel met Horace Smith, a fellow gun enthusiast who’d learned about firearms while working at the

National Armory in nearby Springfield. They formed a partnership with the goal of marketing a lever action repeating pistol, and the

two became well known as Smith & Wesson.

SENIOR NEWS LINE by Matilda Charles

Don’t Fall for This Free LunchHave you seen the ads? They offer us a free lunch at a posh loca-tion while we attend a seminar on financial investing, with experts to advise us. Don’t be taken in by it. It could be the most expen-sive lunch you’ll ever have. The Securities and Exchange Commis-

sion and the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority just released a report detailing the investment scams that are becoming rampant against seniors. While the study concentrated on Southern states, there’s no doubt this is happening

across the country.The scam works like this: When you think you’re going to an in-vestment education seminar that includes a free lunch at a nice place, you end up facing high-pressure sales tactics and misleading claims. You might be pushed to open new accounts, sign complicated docu-ments (without being given the opportunity to read them or take them to your attorney for review) or buy investment products that aren’t suitable for you (or that

might not even exist).Because we’re seniors and the top-ic is important to us, we’re prom-ised high returns on our life sav-ings with safe investments and excellent liquidity for a financially

secure retirement.Here are two ways to educate your-

self against investment fraud:¥ Go to AARP (www.aarp.org) and look at its online videos. Search for investment fraud and “The Lure of Money.” While you’re there, take the Investment Fraud IQ test

to see how you score.¥ Go to www.sec.gov and search for “free lunch report” for the whole 46-page study. It includes examples of the ads that are used in these scam free-lunch invest-ment seminars. If you have ques-

tions, call the SEC’s Office of Investor Education and Advocacy at 800-SEC-0330.

Here’s a scary thought: Research shows that 78 percent of us have received one of these free-lunch invitations.

DEAR PAW’S CORNER: Have you ever cov-ered the topic of hot spots on dogs before? -- Barb, via e-mail

DEAR BARB: I have, although most of the time this pesky condition comes up as part of another topic. Hot spots are surface skin infections that generally look like circular bare patches in a dog’s fur and can be painfully itchy. They sometimes smell bad and ooze pus, but the most common sign of a hot spot is your dog being agitated and constantly scratching, licking or biting the affected area.Dogs can develop hot spots from scratching flea bites, underneath tangled or matted hair, after swimming at public beaches and more. Untreated hot spots will spread, and while there are home remedies -- like dabbing a 50/50 vine-gar-water solution on the spot a few times daily -- your veterinarian can recommend the most effective treatment. Certainly, if home treatment doesn’t work or your dog’s condition worsens, you should consult a vet.Prevention -- or management after a bout with hot spots -- is important. After your dog goes swim-ming, shower it off well, dry as much as possible and wipe the outer part of the ears with a dry cot-ton ball. Treat regularly for fleas to minimize their impact. Groom your dog regularly -- especially if it has a thick coat -- to prevent his undercoat from getting matted and trapping moisture and bacteria against the skin.
