Monday Nostalgia

I spent a small part of Saturday morning watching the Rugrats on DVD. Does anybody remember them? Knock-kneed, large-headed infants explore the world - and through some wonderful form of magic, they are able to share their pre-verbal musings with us. Sometimes I get nostalgic for childhood. And I think sometimes on Monday, we all get nostalgic for Saturday. Or Friday night. Or any day that isn't Monday.

"Ladies and Gentlemen, this contest is a "loser must flee" match - the winner will be the contestant who makes his opponent ... run away! In the blue suit - "Baby Blue" -- and in the shiny black, "Felixus Maximus."





Have a reminiscent week!
