Animating A Charlie Brown Christmas
Animating Schulz's style in four months was really hard to do, and they didn't like the result.

If you want some real groaners of Trek puns, look no further than the comments on this Not Always Right story.

A guy makes a motorcycle model out of old watches.
I was reminded of my dad even before I realized that today is Fathers Day. He would've loved this.

Today I found out that this year is the 50th anniversary of Schoolhouse Rock. Of course ABC made a special to commemorate it.
I can't begin to tell you what Schoolhouse Rock means to me. It's a labor of love by people who really wanted to educate and entertain children at the same time. While it's had its clunkers (most of Earth Rock comes to mind immediately), you never feel that these guys are phoning it in. I'll forgive a lot of flaws if the creators had passion.

As a followup to the Schoolhouse Rock 50th Anniversary here's a tape someone made way back in 1973 off their TV, including the first ever airing of Schoolhouse Rock, the first short "Three is a Magic Number." Seeing the different animation surprised me, but I guess gunshots, even from a carnival game, was deemed non-PC for the time.
(The YouTube video says 1971, but we know Schoolhouse Rock didn't air until 1973).
