Marianne, I'm from Illinois and we did not have the blood type tattooing. I never heard of that before! However we did hide under our desks every Tuesday morning at 10am and never questioned it. How stupid was that? lol And thanks so much for reminding me of my favorite -- Garfield Goose! I loved him! :-* Did you ever think about the creativity and imagination that went into that. I look at all the stuff kids have to choose from now and it's overwhelming. I wonder if they can even relate to something that isn't racing around like craze for having its' head blown off. But, for me, nothing can compare to Frasier Thomas sitting in front of that little staged puppet box and talking to Garfield Goose! I used to laugh soooo hard, and what's really fantastic is that goose never uttered a word. Just the expressions alone of that simple puppet! The way he'd open his mouth to laugh, fall back on his back when he was exasperated . . . oops am I getting carried away? Oh well,
I just loved him and Romberg Rabbit too! :-*
