I Loved the days when we had 4 seasons :)

Hey Kids, what time is it? It's Fred Klein time.
See you in May.

In connection with her name change, she will be moving to Florida.

Fine with me if you change he name. But without winter I wouldn't have the same outdoor running experience! I loved the Howdy Doody show except for that Clarabell character. My fear of clowns clearly started at an early age.

Before my time...

We didn't even have a television set until 1969.. And we only got one because of the moon landing; it was a 15" black and white Zenith tabletop model.

Captain Kangaroo was the first Clarabell

I have no memories and the early shows I recall and miss included Northwest Passage based "Roger's Rangers, and Sir Lancelot.

3 ? Babe Ruth ? NBC (Channel 4 ) in NY......A couple of days after XMAS 1947. Howdy Doody was born. The show ran until 1960.
It's Howdy Doody Time ! It's Howdy Doody Time, Bob Smith and Howdy Doo Say Howdy Doo to You." Ta Ra Ra Boom de AY !
I gather you are sick of winter. Frank Sinatra sang in Love and Marriage...."You can't have one without the other." Except in California. Lucky for KW eh ? Oh, by the way Violi is opening the " Granduca" in Austin.....Mr. Bluster( Hmph Harrumph) was my favorite. I have become him. Russ Haber was the original Howdy Doody and still is. But if you think about how long ago it was Fred. I was 3 ( your favorite # ) in 1947. I once sat in "The Peanut Gallery " and still do. Roslyn at that time was much like Doodyville. You could go to Archie's for lunch ? Remember Archie?
Thinking outside the box. Deal with winter. Spring will be so much grander. The princess doesn't need a name change. Oh...And by the way. Al Gore is full of Doody !

Hollander Sends

The human race is not doing much to help the climate.

Loved that very weird Howdy Doody.
I read that Ed MacMahon was a Clarabell at one point.

Life is short. Enjoy all the puppets.

I had heard Ed was Clarabell too, but not according to Google

I'm a little too young for Howdy Doody. Romper Room and Bozo on the other hand. . .
