MARMADUKE & SCOOBY-DOO...STEP ASIDE
By: Pam Vanden Bos
About a year ago, I rescued two pitch-black Great Dane pups. Although these gentle giants are lovable, they lack good manners.

THE SPACE EXPLORERS The Classic Cartoon
By: Chuck Scholtz www.thespaceexplorers.com
It's rare when a lost classic cartoon is rediscovered after 50 years in some old film archives. A new website TheSpaceExplorers.com was recently made to share the rediscovery with Baby-boomers.

Each morning, shows like Captain Satellite, Captain Kangaroo, Captain Video, Sheriff John, and even Romper Room with "Miss Connie" showed cartoons like: Flash Gordon, Buck Rogers, Space Patrol, Fireball XL-5, Ultra Man, Rocket Man, Commando Cody, and the subject of this article... "The Space Explorers".
