Taz, who the hell is Witchipoo?

[D2]

It's spelled "chased," Taz.

Deet beat me to it! Oh well. What do we all think of Chinese food?

LOL! Witchipoo is a character from a Sid and Marty Kroft show called Puffenstuff.

You may recall that giant gay Orange creature that was my avatar recently. That's Puffenstuff.

It's also the name of my new cat.

H.R. Pufnstuf introduced the Kroffts' most-used plot scenario; their fairy tale of good versus evil.[3] The show centered on a shipwrecked little boy named Jimmy (played by Jack Wild) who takes a ride on a mysterious boat to kooky Living Island, home of dancing trees and singing frogs. The Mayor of Living Island was a friendly and helpful dragon named H.R. Pufnstuf, voiced by the show's writer Lennie Weinrib with the costume worn by property master Albert F. Bentley. Jimmy had been lured to the island with his friend, a talking flute named Freddy, by a magic boat which promised adventures across the sea. The boat was actually owned and controlled by a wicked witch named Wilhelmina W. Witchiepoo (played by Billie Hayes) who rode on a broomstick-like vehicle called the Vroom Broom. Jimmy was taken in by Pufnstuf, who was able to protect him from Witchiepoo, as the cave where he lived was the only place her magic had no effect. Apart from Jimmy and Witchiepoo, all of the characters on Living Island were realized via large, cumbersome costumes or puppetry. Since everything on Living Island was alive (namely houses, castles, boats, grandfather clocks, candles, books, trees, mushrooms), virtually any part of the Living Island sets could become a character, usually voiced in a parody of a famous film star, such as Mae West, Edward G. Robinson or most notably John Wayne as "The West Wind". A running gag is Witchiepoo always trying to steal Freddy-and always failing.

It's Pufnstuf. And that's my last correction, I swear!

ETA: Never mind. Deet beat me to it.

Are you singing, Taz? Or crooning?

[StageManager2]

Posted: 3/3/09 at 11:20pm

I think he's jacking it, and he likes it slow.

[tazber]

Posted: 3/3/09 at 11:20pm

Crooning. With a slow hand.

[scott68]

Posted: 3/3/09 at 11:24pm

Crooning makes me swoon! Although the fried wontons that just arrived are equally capable on that front.

[StageManager2]

Posted: 3/3/09 at 11:26pm

Scott, you wonton slut!
