Has anyone else wondered how some lines in that show managed to get past the censors?

For starters, the main character is named    Beaver Cleaver     .

RIP Mrs C.

Hard to believe that I watched all that stuff in re-runs.  It first aired the year I was born and was done by '63...

Mr. C has left us  :'(

What good can come of this?  I'm hoping for a rash of Happy Days reruns to go along with the Leave It To Beaver marathons!  In this time of electronic overload we are losing the good ones at too fast a pace.
If I appear taller than other men it is because I am standing on the shoulders of others.

Sadly it seems that this current generation of viewers is more interested in "reality" shows that have NOTHING to do with reality.
At least in my neck of the cable universe, The Andy Griffith Show still plays every day.
You can say lots of bad things about pedophiles; but at least they drive slowly past schools.

Even the Fonz, is crying, and he only cried in ONE episode. A kind man, with a big heart. On and off screen.

RIP. Mr. C,.....
Thomas Jefferson: The strongest reason for the people to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against the tyranny of government. That is why our masters in Washington are so anxious to disarm us. They are not afraid of criminals. They are afraid of a populace which cannot be subdued by tyrants."

Radio Flyer Wagon


ANCHORAGE, Alaska —
A Valley couple took a childhood memory and turned it into a retirement project. Now, they have a Radio Flyer car to drive around town in.

Fred Keller and Judy Foster worked on the car for 11 months, and finished in August of this year, and their ride has been turning heads.

The base of the wagon is a 1976 Mazda pickup truck that Foster inherited from her dad.

The vehicle turns heads everywhere they go.

"I think the words I hear the most often is 'awesome' or 'cool' or people go by and give us a 'hi' sign," Foster said.

The wheels are made from hub caps and detergent bottles, and the steering wheel is the actual wheel from a wagon. The handle rises eight feet high.
