On 6/3/2006 sparky wrote in from United States  (70.249.nnn.nnn) Ren and Stimpy have one thing the others do not have, grossness, the everyday unmentionables that we all face (nose goblins, earwax, kitty litter, close up of big warty pimplefaces, etc.) They capture life in a far closer aspect to what we as human beings deal with daily (and we as small children pondered and wondered at the wonders of nose goblins, earwax, and other such "icky" stuff) Besides, you know you wanted to laugh when the fat ugly lady in the burning highrise wanted to throw her horse, and her hippo out to ren and stimpy the firedogs waiting below. By the way, simpsons wail on family guy, because you can watch the simpsons with your kids without a whole lot of explaining what certain things mean, or even worse... lying to them because they are too young to know. -Sparky     Rate post 239174 !

Although I've been a Simpsons fan since they were merely a comic strip in a local magazine in the mid '80s (Uncle Jam), I AM slowly warming up to the comedy logic of The Family Guy. At first, I wasn't understanding Peter and the humor, but Stewy(sp?) and Brian had my attention from the start. Overall, I'll always favor The Simpsons more. I hope that show never leaves the airwaves. It's been going strong since the late '80s on television. I don't care for watching television very much... but I DO make time for those two shows. Homer Simpson is my role model and the cat that leads a fairly stress free existence. Same goes to Stimpy from Ren & Stimpy fame. Another genius cartoon. If the world were made up of those two characters, we'd be living in a better place. No war, gangs, and any other negative stuff. Viva Homer J. Simpson! SK8/SURF 4 LIFE!

It is truly sweet to see one of the all-time best TV shows connected to the all-time best lifestyle activity--boarding, in all its' forms!     Rate post 238946 !

I will let you know. And as for the the cartoon....if creationists are kooks then I suspect intelligent design advocates would fall into that category as well.....People that know me know I don't push my particular faith beliefs on others but do try to live what I believe. Guess that makes me a kook.... Been called worse.

Marion, that sounds awesome! Simply post up and/or e-mail me whenever you're heading out here. I'm sure that you'll be able to stay near or with a few of us.
