It's nice to know I'm in good company because Battle of the Planets and Land of the Lost were two of my all-time favorites when I was a kid. If y'all are interested in collecting the complete Battle of the Planets on DVD, I'd strongly recommend that you buy the individual DVD volumes (1 thru 6) rather than the big Battle of the Planets - Ultimate Set DVD because it omits a number of episodes that can be found on the regular volumes. Land of the Lost is a bit more manageable to collect on three volumes, one per season. As for Davey and Goliath, I remember those fondly as well, but I also remember having thought that Art Clokey must've finally given up smoking some serious hash by 1960 to have gone from Gumby to Davey and Goliath. Those surreal early episodes of Gumby in 1957 were a claymation acid trip that for me really amounted to a visual representation of an infant's night terrors. Brilliant stuff!

Sleestack! Thank you, I couldn't remember the name of those little buggers.
I remember the ol' Gumby flicks and how abstract they were. I knew that Art Clokey did the Gumby films, butI didn't know that he was resposible for Davey and Goliath too. Wow, he must've been born again or something.
Back to Christmas, my wife and I decided to try something a little different this year. Instead of buying each other gifts, we're going to buy the gifts for ourselves and wrap them for each other to be opened on Christmas Day. It takes the guess work out of what to get each other and we're guaranteed to get what we want.

what do i want in my christmas stocking? A beautiful foot! lol In all seriousness, I'd want a laptop with WI-FI and then to get wireless IN in my house. And a pair of Britney Sweetstinks socks....

More Craftsman sockets and wrenches to fill in the gaps in my tool box. Also, 17 inch OZ Superleggera rims with Michelin Pilot Sport A/S tires for my WRX.
