Hamton is saddled with other irony as well.  Two items that spring to mind
are his Felix Ungeresque neatness, unusual in a cartoon pig to say the

Just thought that I would follow up my earlier posts.  I am quite 
confident that there is no more TTA in Ottawa, Canada.  I have been 
watching the TV guide carefully for three weeks now, and the TTA 
Christmas Show is nowhere to be seen.  And this will be the second 
straight week without TTA.  TTA was replaced by Beetlejuice on Sunday 
mornings...  A moment of silence please......and I only managed to

There is something that you may want to look into.  If you are running
on a Unix system, you can insert a program (or executable shell
script, which would probably be more useful if you wish to have a
program that reads netnews and appends the messages into a file) into
your personal crontab.  You can set your crontab entry so that a named
program is performed annually (i.e every day at 12:15, every tuesday,
at the first of every month, etc., etc.).  By doing something like
this you should be able to set up something that will read the tt news
once a day, and store it in a file.

For more information on this, do 'man crontab' to get the manual entry
for the crontab function.

If you are not using Unix, disregard all of this stuff.

                                 good luck,

Sure, if you send me enough money to cover purchase price, tax,

P.S.  I'm not sure when I'll be able to do it, since I'm leaving

For the record, there was a whole mess of the large

a Toy Clearance place here in town.   

The selling price was $15.00, marked down from the list of $25.00...

Are we sure with regard to the voices?  (I could be wrong.)  The rest of it
looks the same, though.

Matt Frewer provided the voice of Elmyra's father in the "Elmyra's Family"
episode.  Now, it sure sounded like Frank Welker doing the same voice in HISMV
and the short where Elmyra is locked in a mall terrorizing Charlie the Dog and
the other animals in the pet store.  Remember the ep where the parents, which
talked much like Elmyra, thought it was cute for Elmyra to ride around in a

They are all over the place up here, and good Playskool ones, at that.
There is one store that has the other kind, though.  Haven't been
able to find a Playskool Water Pals Babs yet, though several stores
have lots of Busters.  I suppose I could ship some out, as there are
a lot of them.  The small ones are around $10, and the large ones
around $20.  I don't know what shipping might run.  

However, if you are anywhere near upstate NY, or southern CT,
the two places I live, they are quite easy to find.  Nearly any
Caldors or Woolworth's has them.

being made is because the merchandise didn't sell well enough.
