Log Drivers Waltz???
Ever notice how people can find nostalgic value in the oddest things?
After a few bev's last night at Bar Italia, a few folks wound up at an apartment nearby and after reviewing the titles of the adult only section of MTS Digital TV (I think the fav title was "Horny Asian Nympho's") we began surfing the Free Stuff Section.
At one point a couple of the ladies we happy to see the Log Drivers Waltz... it's a cartoon vignette from the NFB. So the cartoon begins and all of a sudden the ladies in the room start singing along in their own version of the opera voice. And I realise just what an impact this canadian television filler had on these two.
It reminds me of Rocket Robin Hood and how that seems to have impacted people other than myself. Seeing Dana's post I felt much better about myself. Until then, I used to think I was the only person who ever watched this cartoon or had fond memories of it. It's amazing me how others share my fond memories of an obscure, choppy cartoon. Granted, I think the absolute BEST part of RRH (Rocket Robin Hood, in case you aren't on the 'in') was the opening theme song... the chorus "Band of Brothers marching together"... and seeing RRH and his crew marching along (strngely without moving their arms or legs) was mesmerizing, it still is in a way.
What obscure, low budget memory do you have? Doesn't have to be a cartoon, but feel free to share.. perhaps others will surprise you and admit to the same fond feelings.

Hey Huma, it's really weird that we don't know eachother in real life don't you think? Like when you're at Bar I? I'm about 4 blocks away....crazy.
