Captain Kangaroo 1927-2004 [Updated]
Captain Kangaroo, aka Bob Keeshan, was my favorite as a lil’ tad. There he is, with a pocket full of carrots, and Bunny Rabbit in the other. My memory of Cap’n K does not include that screaming red jacket. It had to be blue, because I watched him every day in glorious black and white. Now check this out:
Yep. Captain Kangaroo liked Heineken. BTW, the urban legend is false – Bob Keeshan did NOT fight on Iwo Jima in WWII, and neither did Lee Marvin, although both were Marines. Film at 11.
[Update: Apparently that photo is from a Halloween party circa 1980 something, and is not Bob Keeshan. It’s still awesome. Hat tip to Dave.]

Saturday Matinee – Papa’s Day Eve
Now I don’t like to post Utoobage vids that don’t have vids, but Tom Waits’ version of James Brown’s “Papa’s Got A Brand New Bag” is too great to pass up.
There aren’t many decent videos of Papa John Creach, but here he is with Hot Tuna circa 1972.
The Temptations’ classic “Papa Was A Rolling Stone.”
And Mama, I’m fighting a head cold, so that’s it for tonight. Just remember the old adage, “When Mama ain’t happy, ain’t nobody happy; and when Papa ain’t happy, nobody gives a shit.” Have a great weekend, folks, and be back here tomorrow for more fun.

Capybara Cab
Yep, that’s a capybara, and those are monkeys. Cebus albifrons Zappafrankinus monkeys to be exact.
