If you recognize the above, then you have seen what is probably the best written cartoon short. Ever. It has not been part of FWFR.
Until now.
Have a great weekend.
Um, one problem. I don't recall off the top of my head if a frog is an amphibian or a reptile, but I'm realtively sure it's not both.
Good point. I thought it was both, but I looked it up and it isn't. Frogs come under class Amphibia, but not class Reptilia. So they are not reptiles.  |

Good point indded. "I don't know much biology" to quote Sam Cooke.
I've changed the review to "Ragtime ribitter...". Hopefully the fix will be applied quickly.
In the meantime the 5th spot has been switched to an oldie but goodie. |

I feel stupid... it took several views to realize "Akeelah" is a homonym for "A killer" |

The fix has been applied, so I'm putting it back on the list. |

Well, I kind of had to laugh at your "I Yabba-Dabba Do!" review (yeah, that vote is mine). See, we have some neighbours here whose last name is Even-Tzuk. 'Tzuk' is the Hebrew word for flint and I think you can guess from that what 'Even' means. We don't care much for them, but thankfully they don't understand English. I think you can guess how we refer to them...

It sometimes got that cold at 2am in Vanuatu. 
A smart-arse, eh? I'll have you know that we Brits are determined to cope, whatever the weather. Thanks to global warming the temperature here varies from about 15 degrees C in the wonter to 19 in the simmer, so we're impetuously throwing away half the contents of our wardrobes. Soon we'll just wear shorts and T-shirts all year round. In some places that's happening already. The girls are wearing less and less. You wouldn't approve, Conan.  |

According to The New Bantam-Megiddo Hebrew & English Dictionary, the Hebrew word for "flint" is "tzor." It also says that "tzuk" means "cliff."
Any explanation for the descrepancy? I hope my dictionary is wrong, because Even-Tzuk would be a hilarious last name if it really meant Flintstone. |

Sorry - my mistake. The family name is Even-Tzur, not Even-Tzuk - and that's why we call them the Flintstones. And what I really thought was funny was that the review refers to continuing the family name, and the Even-Tzurs have four kids, all boys. No problems with those Flintstones passing on their name!
(I have a colleague whose last name is Tzuk whom I write to all the time, and I guess my fingers didn't do the correct walking with that post.)
