Jolly ... I've been wanting to tell you how CUTE your baby is. He's a handsome little guy, with such a cute expression. Good job. You sure picked out a GOOD ONE!! Does he know any magic tricks or balloons yet? He'll probably pass me up in ballooning very soon.

Sorry to perform a bit of Threadomancy, but the link in the OP reminds me of "Sweet Daddy D", Jeff Dunham's "agent" puppet from his "Arguing With Myself" show. If you want to see what one of these things looks like in action, watch that.

I don't think my family had a colored TV until I was 11 or 12! Hey! I still have a B&W one:

I love Jeff Dunham...he is great..the way he makes them raise their upper lips. Yes I remember Hoody Doody and Clara Belle...I also remember Captain Kangaroo. I rmember that we only had 2 channels and that they were only on certain hours of the day and evening. Black nad white tv's and radio programs like the Shadow and Amos and Andy. where comercials were of Bardol motor oil and Speedy Alka-seltzer. Remember the Banana man on Captain Kangaroo? All that fruit from his pants and coat. Too funny!!!!The Beast
