This morning I woke up wishing I was HR Pufnstuf (please tell me there is someone else old enough on this site to remember him). Wished I was him - the freakiest, oddest thing I had seen. Lizard? Salamander? Sex machine? I think I would get more girls if I walked around the streets of Atlanta as HR Pufnstuf. Less invisible to the world.

So in a Morgan-esgue twist (which I can do since I also claim that name) - I will pose this question - if you could be any children's character, it would be whom? Why? And what would you hum? I would hum "Playgrounds in my Mind" by Clint...Holmes (I believe). "My name is Michael, I have a nickel, I have a nickel shiny and blue.....etc."

I feel compelled to quote HoJo -

The streets here are empty
all the people went home
well, I was just wondering if you're alone
So how you've been lately?
I hear you're a little down
and do you think maybe I could come around?

I could be someone you need
wrap you in blankets on dark winter nights
be your best confidante
pay the right compliment
I could be someone you need

We had coffee on 3rd street
and talked for a time
I still have your letter I know every line
I hope this aint coming from way out of the blue
cause I got to thinking and I thought of you

I could be someone you need
keep you from burning in hot summer sun
roll you in clover a coat for your shoulder
I could be someone you need

You need someone there
when the world isn't fair
or its all just too good to be true
Someone to care for you
issue a dare to you
when the moment comes you need to fly, fly.
