Maybe thats the problem. Your using it from the wrong end. Thats not why they call it a "crack" pipe.

No, but this pic (done by a fan) should make you realize even LSD can't equal the craziness of Futurama.

(It's another show made by Matt Groening, father of The Simpsons.)





And here's the "Three Eyed Bug". Be glad Leela doesn't know you called her pet that. She's known to have a bit of a temper.

If you see this, tonight on Adult Swim (Cartoon Network after 11 PM), all 72 episodes are going to be shown from Dec. 26 - Dec. 31, starting @ 11 pm to 5 AM. 12 episodes a night for 6 nights.

Then the series moves to Comedy Central.

Give it a try. Break out the BetaMax VCR and record it. You might like it.

Maybe a little older than me but not by much. I still have a BetaMax VCR, a KAYPRO Computer, an Atari Videogame Console and other stuff saved from the 80's. I'm donating it to the local college to place in their 'museum'.

I'm still young enough to enjoy cartoons and fast cars.
