G is for GUMBY!

I dedicate this month-long challenge to children, with nephew Jeremy topping my list. Much thanks to the animated or more serious characters who agreed (or not) to conduct interviews this month. Sure, I had to promise them 80% of my profits, but a few are altruistic to the core. At least, that sounds good. Right? My point: Have fun reading this or doing something else. Give a child a hug today too.

Robyn: Gumby! Gumby! Thanks for walking out of Any Book with your pony pal Pokey too for this interview. I always loved your show. My favorite bit is when you shrink to drive a train. I still can't figure out how that segment of the train track keeps moving along with the train. Those are some impressive special effects.

Gumby: Oooh.

Robyn:  And your mom has pretty yellow hair, but your dad's black-top looks funky. Then, there's your little dog Nopey who only says "no." What are the Blockheads doing these days? Oh, and Pokey's a cool hue, but he's kind of a downer. Don't you think? Is he poking around facebook these days?

Gumby: Oooh. Watch! Gumby rolls into a ball towards Any Book. He disappears behind the cover.

Robyn: To think, he was once a little green slab of clay.  GUMBY!

Art Clokey invented Gumby - claymation icon - in the early 1950's. Gumby aired for over 35 years. If you have a heart, Gumby's a part of you. Thanks, Art!
