A couple days ago when I was looking up a 1969 event called the Mid Winter Pop Festival (and trying to figure out why the poster for said festival was being sold for several hundred dollars on eBay) I found an old article saying this event was CANCELED. By old white guys in California who BANNED ALL CONCERTS. Not even a joke, they passed ordinances to ban any outdoor concert of any kind because of "undesirables." Apparently, Johnny Winter and Jefferson Airplane were corrupting da yout'.<br /><br />Was Aunt Bee actually in this show? I can't figure out why Bavier agreed to be in it when she so rarely appeared.<br /><br /><i>There’s always one stupid thing in each R.F.D. episode that makes me laugh out loud…and this was pretty much it.</i><br /><br />Love this. There's always that one thing, even in a bad episode. Hubby and I were spacing off on some new Looney Tunes abomination the other day, disturbed by how truly naked Porky Pig looks nowadays, and they pulled the old disintegrating gun joke and we laughed without a trace of irony.<br /><br />P.S. Buddy Foster is one freakin' irritatin' kid.Staciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05250238254417726987noreply@blogger.com
