Smurfs! It had to be Smurfs!

The Smurfs will be 50 this October.

I had a tough time accepting Smurfs on Saturday mornings when my kids were growing up. After being brought up on Looney Tunes and Saturday morning episodes of the Lone Ranger, Sky King, and Roy and Dale...well, it just wasn't the same.

You have to wonder why they’re starting to celebrate so early. I mean, it’s not like CNN or the AP have nothing better to report.

I can't believe that a staff writer for CNN doesn't know how to spell sarsparilla, and that the editor didn't catch it either. Just one of my pet peeves - these people write for a living; they ought to know better!
