Just say NO. To Sleep.

Wikipedia has just blown my mind.  Get this: Lorenzo Music, the beloved voice actor who was the unseen doorman Carlton on "Rhoda," and the voice of Garfield on "Garfield and Friends" also did the voice of Peter Venkman on "The Real Ghostbusters."  Bill Murray, who played Peter Venkman in the movie Ghostbusters, later went on the do the voice of Garfield in the film adaptation.  Earblood.

I dicovered this little nugget of bizarre coincidence after stumbling upon a stub about a 1990 TV special entitled "Cartoon All-Stars to the Rescue."  It it the Loony Tunes, Smurfs, Winnie the Pooh, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Duck Tales gang, Garfield (hello Lorenzo Music) and the Muppet Babies join forces to convince a teen that drugs are lame.  Needless to say, it’s a tour-de-force, like a deli mural come to life.   

This weekend I rapped, went to a birthday party, taught, went Zydeco dancing, watched a documentary about the Minutemen (the band, not the freelance border patrol), did a dirty comedy show, went to a Sangria Party with a bunch of young musicians, had a Bloody Mary brunch with my beloved Space Robbers, watched Ilsa: Tigress of Siberia at Delilah’s (boooooring), drank bourbon, and made a really super mixtape for Madonna.  Yeah!  Adult responsibility, I schooled you!
