Serial pants-wearing
Since Fitz-Hume was so happy to answer my question about his favorite pants I thought I'd mention my current preferred trousers. Well, my favorite pants I wear. Any pants on a monkey are my true favorite, but anyway...
My favorite pants until just recently were a pair of Wrangler jeans. Not the ass-tight, boot-cut ones with the little faux leather patch on the butt, but jeans that were sorta normal looking I had worn for several years and were soft and supple and comfy. I wore them so often a little hole appeared just to the right of the left pocket. Then the little hole became a big rip and it became rather offensive for me to wear the jeans in public.
Now my favorite pants are some black cords I bought at Target; Merona is the brand I believe. They're soft and just a little too big which is good because the cold I've had off and on for the last two months has made it hard to go to the gym. Also, they don't make that whish-whish sound when I walk like the cords I wore when I was ten years old.
Fitz-Hume also answers a question from The Hot Librarian (actually a 43 year old dude named Herman) about his favorite Saturday morning cartoon and I have to agree with him 100%. When I was in 4th grade 90 minutes of Looney Tunes came on at 8:30 am and I always made sure to be done with the paper route in time to catch the "On with the show this is it!" theme song.
Since I haven't turned on my TV on a Saturday morning in years unless there was an early football game, I don't know what is on but I get the impression that Saturday morning cartoons on the big networks are fairly scarce save for a few 30 minute toy adverts. It's sad, really. I have a photo of my cousin and I sitting on our beanbag chairs eating toast and jam and watching cartoons when I was four years old that says 1000 words about how awesome cartoons used to be.
Thank you Cartoon Network for Boomerang (but please kill Scooby Doo).
