That was innovative for that time! Go Winky D

Don't squat with yer spurs on!

People try to turn back their "odometers." Not me. I want people to know 'why' I look this way. I've traveled a long way and some of the roads weren't paved

I remember the piece of clear plastic that you put on the TV screen and drew things based on clues through out the show. But I remember it being a Sci-Fi show. Gene

Winky Dink sounds like the first Interactive TV Show. Far, far ahead of it's time! We already had plastic sheets on our TV, it was to make the Black and White into color! Mighty Mouse is my hero. I have the T shirt and my GF's call me Might Mouse when I help them out. (♫♫" Here I come to save the Daaaaay! " ♫♫) When I was 4, I got a bad concussion trying to fly my trike off the cement porch steps. I had my Mighty Mouse cape on but it didn't work? They didn't teach me much on Romper Room, I guess? I got to meet the real Miss Bonnie from Romper Room when I was in my 50's. She was the highlight of my BBQ!

The Roadrunner and Wylie Coyote was my favorite in my 20's! Just loved it when Wylie's tricks backfire on him!

The Roadrunner was MY DD's Elementary School Mascot. Those were fun years of painting T-shirts and Sweatshirts with The Roadrunner. Meep-meep!
