Jessie drives up to a broken-down hotel; she walks up to the front desk and asks for a room.

"We only have one room left," the innkeeper informs her. "But, before I give it to you, I need to warn you that it's the room where the white-eyed ghost resides."

Jessie wasn't concerned. "I'll take the room. I'm not afraid of ghosts."

That night, as Jessie lay down to sleep, she heard an eerie voice wail, "Oooooh....I am the white-eyed ghoooooost...."

"Oh, be quiet," Jessie grumbles. "I'm trying to get some sleep."

"Oooooh....I am the white-eyed ghoooooost...." The ghost wails again.

"I said, hush! Let me sleep!"

"Oooooh....I am the white-eyed ghoooooost...."

Annoyed, Jessie grabs a vase from a nearby stand and flings it at the ghost, who then disappears. Jessie settles into bed again and closes her eyes.

Shortly thereafter, she hears the eerie voice wail, "Oooooh....I am the black-eyed ghoooooost...."

A very happy Halloween to all. :)

Classic Cartoon Showcase:Garfield's Halloween Adventure

In this classic Halloween special, the famous fat cat and his puppy pal go out(dressed as pirates) in search of all the candy they can eat...and come across a spooky old house!(GLEEP! :-O) Please enjoy!

Cartoon Showcase:Slappy Squirrel in Scare Happy Slappy

Happy Halloween, everybody! Let's start the festivities with a Slappy Squirrel cartoon! In this humorous episode, the slap-happy squirrel takes her nephew Skippy(who's garbed in a Buster Bunny costume :-D) trick-or-treating. However, unbeknownst to either of them, Slappy's old enemies are plotting to do her ill; odds are good, though, that Slappy will come out on top.(Included in this video also is some "Randy Beaman gossip" from Colin.) Please enjoy!

Fun Fact: Beanie the Bison has the same voice actor as Tubbs. In fact, as a slight Actor Allusion, I had Tubbs paraphrasing a quote of Beanie's("You're a smartie every day, Tubbs. Yes, I am.") in the fanfiction in the previous post.

Eye Don't Know

This is my very first Pound Puppies fanfiction. In this story, which is based off of the 1985 special(as well as the book series), Bigelow accidentally misplaces his glasses, and mistakes Flack and Tubbs(who have sneaked in to do a bit of dognapping) for Doc Weston and Dabney Nabbit, a situation that the dognappers intend to take full advantage of. Fortunately, however, the Pound Puppies take matters into their own paws and remedy this situation, with much hilarity and slapstick ensuing. Please enjoy!

Sight For Sore Guys

 

 

 

Here, BTW, is a picture of Sneakers(named for his little white paws), the dog Flack tries(and fails) to nab in Doc Weston's office in chapter two.

 

 

 

And here's a picture of Rebound, the(very hyper!) dog Tubbs tries(and fails) to give a bath to in chapter two. (Why, uh, no, no, he wasn't named after an equally hyper dog of the same name from the 2010 series. :-D)

 





Joke of the Week #27

A circus came to a small town one day. This was a very high-quality circus that really had it all: acrobats, jugglers, clowns, fire eaters, sword swallowers, horseback riders, human cannonballs, strongmen, and all sorts of animals, such as lions, elephants, leopards, tigers, dancing bears, performing seals, and little trained poodles. Everyone in town filed into the giant red and yellow striped tent at a quarter to noon; a spotlight fell on the center ring, and a lone clown strolled out.

"What's 3 times 3 times 4 minus 7 divided by 8 to the ninth power?" he asks.

A hush suddenly falls over the crowd. No one there was particularly good at math.

"I'm sorry," says the clown. "But this show can't go on." and he leaves, with the other circus performers following closely behind.

Why couldn't the clown continue?

 

 

There were three rings, but nobody answered.

Joke of the Week #25

Libby's walking toward the front door of her house with a hippo walking behind her. Her neighbor says, "Say, don't you think you should take that hippo to the zoo?"

Libby says, "You know what? You're absolutely right!" And she and the hippo then traipse off.

The next day, Libby walks out her front door, with the hippo still following her. The neighbor says, "Say, I thought you were going to take that hippo to the zoo!"

Libby says, "I did, and today I'm taking him to the baseball game!"

Domo? Arigato!

Look out! Here comes Domo!

 

 

Domo:The Manga is an Ameri-manga produced by Tokyopop, starring Tsuneo Goda's iconic monster. The comic, which is drawn by several different artists(two of whom being Jared Hodges and Lindsay Cibos of Peach Fuzz fame), follows the adventures of Domo and his(super-cute!) forest friends: the wise old rabbit Mr. Usaji, the sensible weasel Tashanna, the mother and son bats Maya and Mario(No relation), who are little more than background characters, the shy, sweet Bear Boy, the fox trio, consisting of Brother Fox, the moody oldest sibling, Fox Boy, the easygoing middle child, and Esther, the prank-loving youngest, and Hungry Bear, who's uhm, well...a rather large, hungry bear! :-D

 

Much of the humor of these comics derives from Domo's tendency to overdo things, which often leads to a bigger problem than the one he's currently trying to solve.

 

The comic consists of six short stories:

 

Don't Try This at Home-Domo enjoys watching a samurai movie a little too much!

 

Hero For a Day-After watching a superhero movie, Domo decides to become a superhero...but ends up doing much more harm than good!*

 

"Fix, fix, fix, fix...FIXED!" Too funny! :-D

 

Soapbox Road Warrior-Domo and the others compete in a soapbox derby for the prize of a month's supply of delicious peaches. Who will win?

 

The Ultimate Beetle-Domo trains a beetle for a beetle fight, but as usual, things don't go as planned.

 

Life Is Just a Game-Tashanna invites a bored Domo over to her house to play video games; when he ends up breaking her video game system, he remedies(and we use this term loosely) the situation by having the other animals act out a "real-life" video game.

 

 

 

Living in the Now-Tashanna endeavors to improve the quality of everyone's lives by introducing them to cell phones...but will the animals ever figure them out?**

 

 

My Thoughts:This is a very funny, enjoyable, very well-written and well-drawn comic. The characters(especially Domo himself) are very cute, likeable and full of personality, and the storylines are very fun and entertaining. The book even contains a(very nifty) Domo Fanart section. All in all, a very nifty comic that any Domo aficionado is sure to love.

 

 

Buy it on Amazon!

 

 

 

There were several humorous short films(Which were briefly seen on Nickelodeon) made of Domo's escapades, which are now available on DVD:

 

Domo Volume One

 

 

 

"Domo? DOMOOOO!"

 

 

 

*Hmm, might this, perhaps, make him a "Less-than hero?" :-D

 

 

 

**Watch for cameos made by Hee and Haw, two flower pixies that only Domo can see, and a ghost simply named the Ghost, who appears and disappears at will, in this chapter.(Some humorous stuff is done here!)



 

 

 



 

 

 

Funny Poem Showcases:The Resemblance is Uncatty!

It's a well-known fact that pets sometimes tend to resemble their owners, but the folks in these limericks are really overdoing it!

 

 

Joke of the Week #24

A tremendous storm leaves three brothers, Brad, Steve, and Carl, shipwrecked on a faraway island. No one comes to their rescue, so they need to build themselves shelter and learn to live off the land. After several years pass, a bottle washes up on the shore; once they open it, a genie appears. "I shall grant you one wish each." the genie says.

"Okay," Brad says. "I wish I could go back home." A puff of smoke appears and, POOF! Brad suddenly disappears, sent back to his home.

The genie then turns to Steve. "And what will your wish be?"

"I also wish to go back home." Steve replies. Another puff of smoke appears and, POOF! Steve also disappears and is on his way back home.

The genie then turns to Carl. "And what will your wish be?"

Carl, who wasn't the brightest of the bunch, now notices that he's all alone. He says, with a sniffle, "I wish my two brothers were back. I'm lonely!"
