1430	Article	NLogan	@Hoju here are my Scary Stories and my son's Scary Stories that have new artwork. <img width="300" height="300" src="/images/postImages/141326342520141013_212456.jpg"> Looking at some of my pictures for the wax museum I saw I forgot they also had Rocky, Chuck Norris, Hulk Hogan, Abbott and Costello, and the cast of the Wizard of Oz.

1431	Article	Vaporman87	I think we've all had at least one of those stories passed around regarding "the house next door" or some escaped murderer on the loose. Kids love scaring other kids. I was not immune to it, unfortunately. More than once, I made up a story about a little girl getting caught in hidden quicksand in the woods behind our house (DOH!). Naughty, naughty. And there was at least one house in our little neighborhood that could have easily been the subject of a scary tale (though it wasn't). One thing that IS true, and can be good for giving a kid some fright, is that the catfish in the Ohio River (a mere 10 minutes from me) can reach the size of men. I've seen pictures of some that were almost that size, caught be people I know. Tales of them were pretty regular after divers began searching for the remains of people who had died in the Silver Bridge Collapse in the town over from us (and also across the river in Point Pleasant WV). Oh, then there was that whole Mothman thing... but that's a whole other subject unto itself.	Scary Stories from the Schoolyard	Oct 14, 2014
1432	Article	Hoju Koolander	@NLogan Wow, that is an impressive and costly collection. You may be the only person who bought Hulk 180 and 181 for The Wendigo appearance, LOL. @Vaporman I wanna see those catfish, freaky! By the way, I called my Dad last night to confirm the first story about the haunted house, he said it was 100% true. Apparently the people that did buy it years later totally remodeled it to eliminate any connection to the deceased owners and possible haunting...crazy.	Scary Stories from the Schoolyard	Oct 14, 2014
1435	Article	NLogan	Nah, my big favorites were X-Men, Hulk, and Spider-Man. My favorite was Wolverine when he was still cool. My collection runs from the 1960s-1990. But I do like the wendigo but he just happened to be in the hulk and X-Men books and it sort of pertained to this conversation. If you want to check out a creepy weird wendigo movie watch Ravenous. Oh I like how the paper in this article is in Latin.	Scary Stories from the Schoolyard	Oct 14, 2014

1408	Article	Vaporman87	Much as it does suck for it to become official, the truth that we all never really accepted was that Saturday Morning Cartoons died a long time ago. And by that, I mean they died when the 3 (and then 4) major networks got out of the SMC business. Smaller networks like CW may have carried the torch on for a bit longer, but not everyone gets a CW channel, and even if they do, fewer actually watch it. No my friend, Saturday Morning Cartoon had one foot in the grave for a long time. It's just really hard to accept the whole truth of it when it becomes official. Apparently we nostalgia nerds aren't the only ones who felt that way either, as I noticed a plethora of articles on the subject that headlined the largest sites on the net, including Yahoo!. They will be missed.	R.I.P. Saturday Morning Cartoons	Oct 09, 2014
1410	Article	Benjanime	i have to agree with vapor, i think that pretty much when 4kidsTV came around, you just knew that the common pasttime of saturday cartoons just had to go. poorly edited anime, american girl cartoons that just try too hard to do the whole princess/fairy thing, and television producers that just like to put contests in the sweepstakes meat grinder. speaking of which, i remember when they had a contest for a chance to win a copy of shadow the hedgehog, an edgy sonic game that used minor explicit words, but i guess they missed that because of the E label on the esrb rating for it.

1415	Article	Hoju Koolander	Good stuff, Mike. It's crazy that the syndicated cartoons in the morning and afternoons co-existed for so long with the Saturday Morning cartoon block, but I suppose this was inevitable. That said, you hit on some of my favorites: Beetlejuice, Camp Candy and those Sunkist commercials are instant nostalgia for me. As for some of the others, I have a Hammerman VHS tape packed away somewhere (yes, it's terrible) and I bought the complete series of Hey Vern, It's Ernest for $5 at Wal-Mart a while back, I like to put it on while I'm cleaning the house on Saturday mornings.

1417	Article	pikachulover	The 4Kids block started the year I started college. So that was like a ceremonial ushering in of things. I don't know some of the 4Kids shows were watchable. I really liked the Winx Club, Fighting Foodons, Kirby, and Dinosaur King. ABC ran some decent cartoons for a few years in the early 2000s like Filmore. Sometimes when I'm feeling nostalgic I watch old Saturday morning cartoon commercial blocks on youtube. Sometimes I use them for article research.	R.I.P. Saturday Morning Cartoons	Oct 10, 2014
