You Know When You’re Old(er) When…

OH SNAP!!! Who remembers these spots!? Sandwiched between random CBC shows? Sometimes they’d show them three or four back-to-back-to-back. Or I remember seeing these in grade school back in Etobicoke.

Does anyone remember a lumberjack one? I *think* it was to a lumberjack song (not the Monty Python one) and it was an animated short on this lumberjack (duh!) who was balancing on this log as it floated down the river. He “had a red and black lumberjack (jacket), with a hat to match” and one of those spear thingys that had a point and a hook at the end. Anyone? (edit: Here it is. Thanks Shaun!!)

These are the fine folks who help bring that short Cat Came Back joint by Cordell Barker a few years ago. I fucking loved that joint!

Ah National Film Board of Canada, who knew you could instill such patriotism with (sometimes) crude, yet visually stunning animations? I should’ve saved this bitch for Canada Day!

This shit is so classic!

WAR 1978. It was a good year!
