I mean, Batman…?  Please!  Give me Dudley Do-Right over some self-pitying billionaire in a cowl any day.

    Bah, next you’ll be apologizing to catbloggers.

  2. The Colossus says:

    This is going to be like Vodkapundit II, isn’t it . . . grin

  3. Jeff Goldstein says:

    Well, you know how good I am at altering my style to please the home team…

  4. I want my pie!

  5. Jeff Goldstein says:

    There’s nothing like a nice long game of hockey, eh?

  6. ss says:

    It’s common knowledge, isn’t it, that Dudley-Do-Right was an American cartoon banned in Canada because it disparaged the Mounties? Talk about yer big faux pas there, eh?

  7. Jeff Goldstein says:

    Disparaged?  Feh.  Dudley always saved the day, even if his methods were a bit unorthodox.

    He was the Daryl Zero of his day.  Only dumber.  And more tidy.

  8. JWebb says:

    Batman battled Danny Devito. Dudley dealt with Snidely Whiplash. I will say no more.

  9. Diana says:

    Ah! … but Nell had her eye on the horse.

  10. CraigC says:

    Well, she had to fight Dudley for that, Diana.

    “But Nell, I love my horse!”

    Spamword “approach,” as in, “Never approach a horse from the rear.” Unless that’s what you want to do.

  11. Another way to curry favor with Canadians is to pretend that they have a real country with an independant economy, a government that isn’t a self-parody and armed forces sufficient to exercise soverignty over it.

    But you have to do it with a straight face.  That’s the hard part.

  12. Diana says:

    Robin – I can’t even say it with a straight face.
