The most riveting part of this half hour program . . .
tadpole-596-91825618 February 2024
, , , is the Mr. Know-It-All bit titled HOW TO FIX A FLAT AND RETIRE YOUR CAR. Bullwinkle J. Moose recommends that certain makes and models of automobiles prompt prudent drivers to haul a spare car around for when the problem vehicle inevitably conks out. My family has personal experience with the heartbreak of a fried engine, and when we pass a certain nearby dealership everyone in our replacement car goes "Boo! Hiss! Shoot his dog again!" in reference to part-owner Mark E. Mark. As a wise moose once said, you cannot judge a mechanic by his coveralls. However, when it comes to nationally infamous lemons, there's absolutely no way to make lemonade. That's why viewers should heed Bullwinkle's warning, and retire certain problem autos.

There's no reason that THE PIED PIPER is so controversial.

Though this Fractured Fairy Tale involves more tobacco piping than musical piping, that isn't necessarily a bad thing. Therefore, when my team of fellow researchers in the field of moose animation unearth startling facts about the backstory of, inspiration for and ramifications from brief films, it's quite discouraging to find mindless bots of some sort appointing themselves as a nefarious star chamber to rain on the parade of anyone with a viewpoint that's the least bit divergent. I personally know of many film buffs who have quit this site due to its thoughtless squelching of free speech. When it comes time to pay the piper, they shouldn't bother asking for whom the bell tolls.

Bullwinkle Lands
Hitchcoc3 March 2021
While Rocky and Peter Peachfuzz are pursuing, Bullwinkle finally reaches his destination. He is going to be the new Oogle Bird in a tiny kingdom. HIs job will be to write fortunes. The Fairy Tale is yet another Pied Piper. This one has the ability to blow pies of all sorts out of his pipe. The problem is that for no reason he suddenly only able to make tobacco pies which make people disappear. Peabody visits Lord Douglas, the first man to climb the Matterhorn.

Part of this picture is punctuated by people going "Poof!"

After which they disappear in clouds of smoke. The pertinent portion is called THE PIED PIPER, one of the most effective attacks ever launched against Big Tobacco. If aliens were studying the History of Humanity, they'd learn that Earth's allegedly most intelligent creatures have been consuming this "demon weed" for 12,300 years. WHO, or the World Health Organization, says eight million of us succumb to these coffin nails and related products annually. Do the math. If you lack a calculator, these facts indicate that tobacco already has eliminated 98,400,000,000 of us. In other words, almost 98 and a half BILLION folks have been done in by the Curse of the New World. Shortly after THE PIED PIPER's release, America's Surgeon General ordered Big Tobacco to put Black Box warning labels on all of its products, and permanently banned its formerly ubiquitous ads from TV.

Those of us who have bunions . . .
pixrox127 February 2024
. . . know that they're as likely to make you cry as raw onions, if not more so. Bunions are no laughing matter. I have never made any fortune from a bunion. No part of my foot--from the arch to the sole--is able to predict the weather. If anything, my sinuses may be up to a little storm prognosticating, which is convenient because they are much closer to my communication center than my hammer toes, my corns or my bunions. I'm glad that I do not have a body part that can predict the future, whether it's the weather or the World Series scores, if such a hidden talent would make me subject to kidnapping and threats of violence.
