IMAX! Cinco de Mayo! Goal! Wheelie!

Oh wow, I just got an email that Speed Racer is going to be out on IMAX. :::shivers:::

And may I just say that I am still uncertain of the reason for the desire I have to see this movie? I'm not a fan of anyone in the cast (as screenit.com often says in their reviews), nor am I a fan of automobile racing. And I barely recall the old cartoon.

:::shrugs::: Mysterious. Yet fascinating.

And, yes, I believe I'll be seeing it this weekend. Unless I have to work.

Went to Maryann's Sunday night for the night and dragged all 4 kids along. They had a blast! Monday was Maryann's annual Cinco de Mayo party and about 75 homeschoolers descended upon her home bearing Mexican food and candy for the pinatas. We had to leave before anyone else so I could get to work on time. ::::sticks out lower lip:::

David had a soccer game Monday night. He made a goal! But he was offsides so it didn't actually count. Don't ask ME to explain offsides. I still can't!

For some reason I got to thinking of other old cartoons I remember besides Speed Racer (which actually I barely recall) and Underdog (which I once adored). And a vague memory of chopper motorcycles came into my head. Oh yeah, maybe it's because I drove most of the way to work behind a guy riding a chopper.

ANYWAY...( Yes, you are getting the "after work babbling Lisa" tonight! lol)

It's Wheelie and the Chopper Bunch which aired in the fall of 1974, when I was 8 years old. I think we still had a TV then.



What will James remember from this time? He's eight.
