As a kid of the 80s, my life was just centred on cartoons. Like it was all we wanted to get to the weekend to watch Saturday morning cartoons. It was a ritual.
Today honours 'animation' as being International Animation Day.
Set up in 2002 by the International Animated Film Association.
An interesting thing I found out about a cartoon much later in life was the cartoon for the Ghostbusters had to be called "The Real Ghostbusters" as there already was a TV show called "Ghostbusters".
A character that's pretty underrated in that movie was Janine, the sarcastic / "I don't care" attitude was just 'cool' back in the day.
She was portrayed by Annie Potts who's now 69 years old.
Happy Birthday Annie - can't wait to see you reprise the role in the new movie "Ghostbusters Afterlife".
In another geeky jump dealing with the 'unexplained' is the Doctor and the 11th doctor, who was played by Matt Smith, turns 39 years old today.
Hope you celebrate with some fish fingers and custard!
The Doctor travelled to unknown places, and so did Lemuel Gulliver. The book, written by Jonathan Swift was released today 295 years ago.
Great read.
