When the Circus Comes to Town
I have no idea of the provenance of this half-hour compilation. Shown at cinemas before the main feature? Whatever the case, it has everything. Cornball music, girly cheesecake, animated cartoon, stop-motion cartoon, narration by a chimp. Also, the highly disturbing image reproduced below. Somehow I feel it relates to the "horse fondling" theme of yesterday.

Operation Ranger and Operation Buster-Jangle
What a crazy old world that was. "Mutually Assured Destruction." But we just thought it was normal at the time.

The Seagram’s Nightmare
Does this bout of insane tedious bickering make you want to purchase Seagram's liquor?
