There was a lady at my church who passed away several years ago named Minerva Barr. She went by Minnie.

One of my favorite writers is Mike W. Barr (Camelot 3000, the original Batman and the Outsiders, Mantra, among other works.)

Barr and Alan Davis made a particularly great pair!

Agreed, Lardy. And Davis has always been very kind in his words about Barr, saying that he learned more about storytelling from Barr's scripts than anywhere else.

There was a JLI scene where Blue Beetle was watching The Brady Bunch. He said Marcia was cute. Booster gave him grief over it.

Eve Plumb, who played Jan Brady, had a cameo as one half of a mixed-race couple in the 1988 blaxploitation parody "I'm Gonna Git You Sucka."

In the Philippines and many other Southeast-Asian and South Asian countries, it is seen as marrying "up" if you find a white partner... Some call it the colonial mentality, alluding to how most of those countries were once colonized by majority-white countries.

I hear the rain where Philip comes from falls mainly in the plains.

The rain in Spain stays mainly in the plain, but in Hertford, Hereford, and Hampshire, hurricanes hardly ever happen.

Lardy remembers that from when he was a mere flower girl trying to learn to be a proper lady!

In hindsight, it's shocking how Bullwinkle Show producer Jay Ward got away with the running joke, in the Dudley Do-Right shorts, of Nell lusting after Horse instead of Dudley. Lots of old cartoons are pretty disturbing if you think about them too much.

Yeah. Like, what would Tom do if he ever caught Jerry?

Yeah, Jerry was quite the little sadist. Tom would probably give him a taste of his own cruelty before eating him. shudder

Hmmm...right after I typed that, it occurred to me that the meanest thing Tom could do to Jerry would be to force him to watch the Tom & Jerry Cartoons from 1965 to 1967. lol

I really prefer the cartoons where the tormenting is justified (not that all that violence is truly justified, but you know). Like the ones where Jerry is simply defending himself from Tom, or Bugs Bunny is defending himself from Elmer Fudd or Yosemite Sam.

I never much liked Yosemite Sam. He's too loud. Elmer is much funnier to me.

I found Sam a "sharper" enemy to Bugs, but I did find Fudd more endearing.

Endearing Young Charms is the name of the tune used in the exploding piano gag in the Looney Tunes cartoons.
