    When I get up for work in the morning I normally watch a bit of news in bed before I start to move around. The other day I was flipping through the channels and came across a very very strange show on PBS at 6:30 AM (Dallas Channel 13) called Boobah. It is designed for very young children... and I swear it looks like an acid trip!

    They have rainbow colors swirling and floating around and little odd shapes flying around through all of the colors.... every now and then you can hear a kid quietly says: Boooooooobaaaaaaaah.......

    If you don't believe me, just watch it one morning. It is seriously freaky weird...

    I wonder if I'd like that better than idiot Barney and his team of smarmy suck ups or those horrible Teletubbies and their baby gabble?

    Actually, I always thought Mr. Rogers was kind of surreal. Everybody talks like they're high.

    lol... yeah, you can tell he smoked something just before the camera started to roll.

    Our one-year old Sierra LOVES Boobah. Her face lights up and she starts dancing.

    So yeah, it's a drug. Free and legal -- kids get all the breaks!

    Thankfully, mine are past THAT stage but they've graduated to "Fairly Odd Parents" and the other incredibly irritating offerings of the Cartoon Network. Fortunately, I like SpongeBob so that's not a problem.

    i'm not sure what Barney, Boobahs or Teletubbies are supposed to teach, although i do like watching the bunnies on Teletubbies.

    Captain Kangaroo, now there was a show man. Its been all downhill since then.

    Tom Terrific and Manfred the Wonder Dog. Mr. Moose, Bunny Rabbit, so cool.

    Ah, yes, Captain Kangaroo. I loved that show. Dancing Bear was odd, though.
