What’s Up Doc!




For millions of us over multiple generations there is nothing more positive and made us laugh during our childhood than the cartoons.

Bugs Bunny was one of my favorites especially hearing over and over again “What’s up Doc”. Of course another one was the Flintstones with Fred saying “Yabba daba doo” and Bam Bam with of course “Bam Bam”. There were many others like Donald Duck and Mickey Mouse.

Disney still continues many cartoons today along with animated movies. Parents enjoy them watching with their children on the big screen. Nothing more joyful than watching cartoons especially with so many negative distractions we have experienced over the years.

When I was a kid my family did not have cable television and we lived in front of a high hill so our television rotated frequently watching on a black and white television. We had a great time anyway though the rotation was distracting to some degree. We didn’t know any different along with only having three channels. What a difference when a young man knocked on the door offering to sell cable television. Of course my parents did not hesitate at having cable. Something new with many channels where the television did not rotate either and went out bought a color television set.

Getting our first television and then later color television along with getting another car were among my highlights growing up. In those days with technology being limited every occasion were happy moments. Today we often take them for granted.

Besides enjoying every good gift today remembering your childhood when you didn’t have them or they were not a high priority. Outside of watching a few programs every day I spent a lot of time outside. Everything seems so simple back then. I am sure children have their simple things as well though it is hard to believe.

Important to live each day however good to look back in time as well. Memories are so good when difficult times are happening. I hope that you are having a wonderful week. God bless you very much.
