I thought he did, but this morning while my son was watching The Jetsons on Boomerang, I overheard Spacely telling George about a chocolate microchip. It's funny because it just rang out over everything else. bzzzz bzzz bzzz bzzz chocolate microchip bzzz bzzz bzzz...

I couldn't believe it. Is this something that everyone knew about already?

Let it be known, from the palaces of Prince.org to the hills of Housequake, that Prince got "chocolate microchip" from The Jetsons.

My work here is done.

prince is geekier than i thought...sittin around on his booty, watchin cartoon network for the hell of it, gettin ideas for songs n'chit.

too cute...dag I didnt even know The Jetsons still came on
Wonder if P still watches 'em while he eat his Captin Crunch?

I googled it and found the episode description. As follows:


Solar Snoops
Cogswell sends a "Trojan Horse" into Spacely Sprockets in hopes of getting photos of the new project. The spy gets greedy and steals the secret chocolate microchip for himself. But George (disguised as Cogswell's secretary) retrieves the chip and saves the day!

hmm...this could also be the basis for another prince movie.

"...Dag Prince why sometimes you can be so cute. Here have lollypop and dont forget to wash off that Kool-aid mustashe before you leave"

kool-aid mustache

I miss Saturday morning cartoons...I truly believe that was the downfall of our society when they started getting fewer and fewer and now nearly non-existant

now I'm gonna go over in the corner and pout till my hubby gets me cable so I can watch the cartoon network

thekidsgirl said:

Are you kidding...I LOVED that show

When those shows stopped, society gradually got a little drearier

thekidsgirl said:

Handclapsfingasnapz said:

I loved it too ~ when it was the ONLY one, now that seems to be all there it

that show was like nails on a chalk board to me! ugh!

thanx

It's from the club track, "The War" from a few years back. A looooong, amazing, slightly silly, Funkadelic sounding thing...definitely worth scouting out.

MendesCity said:

hmm, I have the war...I haven't listened to it in a while but...I remember microchips in yo neck part (I think) but not "chocolate microchips" oh well, thanx, I'll have to dig it out and take another listen.

I think alot of us (of a certain age) liked that show. We were all clost watchers. Too uncool 2 actually tell amyone you watched or liked it.
And I miss Saturday morning cartoons like Scooby Doo, The Smurfs and Tom & Jerry. Those were the days.
