Yes Char, I agree 100% with you.
A simple man but yet he gaved us so much when we were kids. I remember every weekday morning, it was "Chez Helene, Butternut Square, Friendly Giant, Then eventually, from Butternut Square, came Mr. Dress-Up. He was among other things a good one for drawing those funny yet always interesting pictures.
I remember way back starting school. Grade 1, 2, and 3. I would think of these kids programs, missing them as I was now in school.
They were has much of importance to me, as later on in life, Front Page Challenge, The Forest Rangers, Casey Jones, and then discovering in grade 9, the musical genius style of a great singer that touch me with his words, as if he was talking right to me, Gordon Lightfoot.
I dont know what it is, else than, I love this country, and I am a proud Canadian. I have my name on the list of obtaining the Canadian Flag that flys on top of the Peace Tower in Ottawa. They tell me they change it every morning, and send them to people who have asked for it. There is a 7 year wait list. They sent me a 72 X 36 in. in the meantime, which is here in my guitar, computer room. On the wall over my head, looks just great.
Later Charlene... JJ.
