I didn't see Vickie's original posting (Node was done a couple o' days), but
I have to agree with her here.  The Archies were to their time what, say,
Vanilla Ice is to these times.  All sugar & artificial coloring, no
substance at all...

Confession time:  Yeah, I used to like The Archies.  However, I was only
5 or 6 at the time, so it can be forgiven.  Actually heard "Sugar,
Sugar" a couple of years ago.  I almost choked. "Yuck!  I used to like
THAT?!?!"  I would like to think if I were 5 years old today, I would
not like Vanilla Ice, but, to be quite honest, I probably would.

I remember those cardboard records... I think Kate should put out
records on the backs of cereal boxes.  I think Kate should have her own
breakfast cereal ("Gaffa Flakes"? - probably some kind of hippie
granola crap).  Let's all write to Battle Creek and demand Kate get her
own cereal.
