OF HIS FAVORITES WAS AN OLD GLENN MILLER TUNE CALLED "ELMER'S TUNE".
BUT THE DYNAMIC SWING MUSIC OF GENE KRUPA IS REALLY MORE MY SPEED. THANKS

SEAWOLF2: IF NOTHING ELSE,NOBODY CAN SAY WE DON'T HAVE ECLECTIC TASTES ON HERE,I'M HAPPY YOU ENJOYED IT WOLF

TexasToest: That was great lol! I was brought up on Road Runner, Donald Duck and Bugs Bunny and loads more. They never show those cartoons on the telly these days.
They played one of them in the ballroom at the top of Blackpool Tower, not sure if it got replaced with another type lately though.

Mousetrap:  No, and they don't make cartoons like that anymore.  THAT's the shame, that they have been replaced with too much reality, violence, and SA children.  When I watch a cartoon, I wanna see funny!! 

When I was a kid, we had what they called "Kiddie Shows" on Saturday mornings.  The theater was filled with kids and they showed a whole bunch of those types of cartoons, along with a feature show geared for kids.  Like they had those hokey space movies, and stuff, but they DID show Moby Dick one Saturday.  Sometimes we got the good movies too..  Hahaha!  Oh!  And, the GREATEST movie I saw at the Kiddy Show was Elvis Presley in "Love Me Tender".  You talk about drooling pre-teen girls - the floors were slippery when we left that day.

Honest to goodness, I had a boyfriend at that time whose name was Donald Duck - I'm serious now - and his mother was the swimming teacher at my girl scout camp - serious again!!!!  Here comes the music part.  We made up a verse to Art Mooney's song "Honey Babe" that went like this....follow the bouncing ball...:
                   
                                                         

Swimming teacher's name is Duck, honey, honey
Swimming teacher's name is Duck, babe, babe
Swimming teacher's name is Duck
You go down, she'll pull you up
Honey, oh baby, mine.

OK, enough biography for now, well almost...but I've written lyrics to other songs in my life, like 101 verses to Mario Deboub's "Wine Wine Wine". That's how I got to know him, he walked into a coffee house across from the University we were supposed to be attending, and heard me singing them.  So, he joined in!  Haha!  Loved the guy, truly.

TexasToest: Are you sure you really wanted us to know that lmbo!

Mousetrap: ok,this has been a burning question.Why not say baby instead of babe? doesn'y it lend more to the rhyme?

Jim Dandy: Well I,m only guessing here but maybe it because a baby is a baby and a babe is well a babe

Mousetrap: That's ok,I'm sure Lennon & McCartney had similar differences of opinion

Mousetrap:   I really don't care who knows what.  I haven't done much in my years I'm ashamed of, or regret except for maybe forgetting to floss, and DD surely wasn't anything to be ashamed of.  Not that I "did" anything, I was only 10.  He was 15, and my parents moved me to Pakistan to get me away from him.  Worked too.

But, I was lucky to have lived in Karachi, because I came to love this style of music.

TexasToest: Errr it was a joke an not meant to be taken seriously. Lmbo!
Maybe my sense of humour is too weird?
