Now listen here, Chris, you better start using a little more milk in your
tea because you are positively a sourpuss on the topic of Teletubbies ;-)
I actually had thought a good deal of the sometime hilarious antics of the
beloved 'Tubbies was derived from British low-brow comedy. On the other
hand, at first viewing I remember thinking how the mighty have fallen.
Oh well, TV. "57 channels, and nothin' on" as Bruce Springsteen put it. I
should put that in my sig file ...
