I bought the School House Rock Rocks album specifically for that track. I still listen to it frequently. The beat on that song just grabs me some days. It is perfect for a walk in the woods with an illegal smile.

I also send it to a new couple who are expecting their first child.

As a kid, I rarely saw that one, but it was a favorite.
So cheerful!

Little Twelve Toes I only saw once...

No More Kings and I'm Just a Bill were on heavy rotation.
Verb - that's what's happenin'.

You figure the least she could do is glance at the wiki. It's in the first paragraph.

ABC is doing a special right now. I only just found out about it, but it started at 8 ㏘ EST. Darn it, we shoulda had a LIVE thread.

Essra Mohawk, who sang "Interjections!" (a song very dear to me as many PolTab denizens know well [looking at you, cretinbob]) and "Sufferin' 'til Suffrage," plus a special song on an earlier anniversary album, is still alive and well, and was not contacted by ABC for inclusion in the golden anniversary special. Check her social media: she's quite upset about that.

Though, given the qualify of the special, she should count her blessings.

You know, I damn near 50 and if for some reason I have to count by 5's I do it to the cadence of this song.

When we were learning the multiplication tables in school, our teacher sat down 1:1 with every student and quizzed us. I aced the 7s because of Lucky Seven Sampson.

He's just so CONVINCING.

It's his natural-born name.
If you ask him again, he'll have to tell you the same.
