my wife's cat would shred you with that on your head.

That graphic could be made using only Motorola phones. Which, I would think, would be far better. The V60 was super tiny.

beep if you get it

I would if I could, and no sign could stop me

odd that henry winkler would dress in drag to promote it

Glad I'm not the only one who thought she looked like Henry Winkler.

I would change the red for yellow or turquoise, anything other than red. And maybe paint the dinosaurs in realistic colors, or just paint them, they seem covered in rust, and why is there a giraffe?

OK, other than that, I bet kids love it.

Rusty welded steel lawn ornaments are a thing in California. <shrug>
Yeah, I'd use other colors also. Then again I'd design the house differently to provide more floor space while keeping the Flintstones theme.

yeah, that's the problem: the colours

Calling it a “highly visible eyesore” and “out of keeping with community standards,” Hillsborough planning and building officials are asking a judge to officially declare the iconic Flintstone House a “public nuisance,” and they want a recently-erected metal menagerie of prehistoric animals, along with other features, removed.

Regardless of whether you like it or not, this is where I say, "fiddlesticks you people!" If its not a safety hazard they can shut the fiddlesticks up.

I've driven by the old house hundreds of times and its always been ugly...but it provided amusement for the road, and its new ugly is an improvement.

If you want to live on a giant miniature-golf course, that's your business.

The owner of that property should add a giant middle finger to the display. Because his neighbors should go fiddlesticks themselves.

fair point

i wonder what they'd have made of reality tv?

only having 3 to 4 channels sucked hard

Friday night horror movie at 1030PM and 9AM Bigtime wrestling with Paul Bosch. ch 39 was the bomb back then

here in toronto, the local channel (city tv) ran skin flicks on the weekend -- i think it was saturday night

not porn, but cheap flicks with lots of skin

god bless those bastards

All I know was that Lost Girl was from Toronto, but that was on Showcase.

She was having sex with like everyone.

Showcase was the best channel for a teenage boy. They'd show artistic films late at night.

They sure knew how to sell it though. "Barbi Benton, Adrienne Barbeau," already I'm sold.
