Gumby

[BarryG]

This is for our very own Zaphoon, aka PZ and even occasionally, Kim.

Kim, sorry to hear about Art Clokey, the creator of Gumby passing away today at 88. I guess that must be who is in your avatar today torturing poor Gumby. And to think Gumby originated as a student project in University and went on to being not only a pop icon but one of our most favourite avatars. :smile::smile:

It has been requested that I change the avatar to a celebrating Gumby. In this avatar, he is doing a little dance step in celebratory fashion in rememberance of his dear, recenlty departed creator (may he rest in peace!).

Barry, Thanks for the sentiments! Art and Gumby have a colorful and creative history.

Thats a better Gumby PZ.
Now i know it is not Tuesday over there, not even here but in this case i am sure a wine or two to celebrate Art's life wouldnt go astray, might even keep the chill out of your bones.

Zaph, I like the Fred "Gumby" Astaire avatar.

Peter, My wine cellar has run dry so I'm celebrating with iced tea, popcorn and a movie.

Glen, Thanks for the thumbs up on the Fred Gumby avatar!
