44449	1971 Cat in the Hat special	<p>Fun fact: Did you ever hear an old Comedy song from years ago called Hello Maddah and Faddah Camp Granada? The guy who wrote that song voiced The Cat in the Hat. The guy's name, Allen Sherman</p>	RetroSnob88	Nov 29, 2019
44448	1971 Cat in the Hat special	<p> </p> <p>Way better than that poor excuse of a film with Mike Myers we don't talk about (Dr Seuss was tossing in his grave so badly when that one came out, the executor of his estate withdrew any and all permission for future live action Seuss films. Too bad they didn't say the same thing about those horrendous cgi films) </p> <p> </p> <p>Anyway, I like how in the original special, the talking goldfish dude guy calls the feds on The Cat in the Hat lol</p>	RetroSnob88	Nov 29, 2019
44447	Your avatar.	<p> </p> <p> </p> <p>And now my new avatar is of Ulysses from Ulysses 31 (it was a French Anime from back in the 1980's. I recently did an article about it as well as some other lesser known shows of yesteryear (before any European Retro Dazers flip me guff, I know Ulysses 31 was popular where you live, but such was not the case here in the United States). If you have yet to see said article, that's because I'm currently awaiting approval with great anticipation. Hope you enjoy it when you see it</p>	RetroSnob88	Nov 29, 2019

44445	Thanksgiving Nostalgia & More!	<p>It was a lively bunch at our adoptive family's Thanksgiving gathering again this year. I ate everything I had hoped to so... it was a success. <br />  </p> <p><img alt="" height="480" src="http://www.retro-daze.org/upload/3CEE1E03-2781-4565-9DAA-C53A124BBD70.jpeg" width="640" /><br />  </p> <p><img alt="" height="480" src="http://www.retro-daze.org/upload/69462270-AE56-47AA-8CE2-3B2B3C879980.jpeg" width="640" /></p>	Vaporman87	Nov 29, 2019
44444	Thanksgiving Nostalgia & More!	<p>I had a decent Thanksgiving. I had a nice delmonico steak. It was super thick and incredibly tender, almost like cutting into warm butter. I had potatos and a couple biscuits on the side, plus cheesecake for dessert.</p> <p>I unfortunately had to punt my dog across the house when I walked out of the bathroom and saw that he had jumped onto the counter, having gotten into the pumpkin pie.</p> <p>But other than that, a decent Thanksgiving.</p>	Rick Ace Rhodes	Nov 29, 2019

It was a video game console from back in the late 1970's and early 1980's. In spite of its awkward phone looking controller, the console was great for its time with such cult classics like Snafu, Astrosmash and Tower of Doom. The console was the first of its kind to use a 16-bit chip (as 16-bit as it would get back then anyway. The new graphics for the time had to start somewhere). Anyway, in one of a bajillion ads starring one George Plimpton (whom was Intellivision's spokesman. He would often compare the then most recent sports titles to what was on the Atari VCS (later renamed Atari 2600 aka Atari's only successful console and one of only 3 the original company Atari Inc did. They did two more after Warner liquidated half the company to Commodore Computers founder Jack Tramiel) often saying how better Intellivision's graphics were. It was pretty much the original Genesis Does What Nintendon't so to speak), Henry Thomas comes across him in some random neighborhood as George talks to him about the newest games of the time for the console. Harmless commercial for 1982, but it has not aged well. If that commercial were to air today, ot would automatically be deemed stranger danger. How crazy is that, am I right?</strong> <blockquote rel="RetroSnob88" style="display: inline-block !important;"><br /> <br />  </blockquote> </blockquote> <p> </p>	RetroSnob88	Nov 29, 2019
