Yes, I’m aware that its 5:15 AM on a Saturday morning.  Back in the day, waking up this early on a Saturday was key in order to start watching the slate of Saturday morning cartoons but I really wish I could figure out what I’m waking up early for now.  What’s really odd is that every morning during the week when my alarm goes off, I can’t seem to find the motivation to get out of bed and hit the gym, but once the weekend comes around I’m wide awake before the sun comes out to play.

All this got me thinking though.  What ever happened to Saturday morning cartoons? I’d roll out of bed, start off with some Kroft Superstars (I love me some Land of the Lost), then roll into some Tom and Jerry or Heckle and Jeckle followed by random Hanna Barbera toons.  I still miss Grape Ape and Hong Kong Phooey and I’m totally jealous that my wife got to meet Mr. Phooey himself, Scatman Crothers before he died.  After the early morning session, we’d hit Saturday Morning Prime Time with shows like Thundarr the Barbarian and the super campy Dungeons and Dragons cartoon.  Anyway, in honor of my inability to sleep in on a Saturday morning, I give you my boy Sigmund and his rotten Sea Monster family.
