For all the times I have said, I wish my life was a 70's Saturday morning.

Crack research from Wikipedia:

On December 19, 1988, the Consumer Product Safety Commission banned lawn darts from sale in the United States due to their hazards as a flying projectile with a sharp metal point.

Shortly after, in 1989, they were also banned in Canada.

From what I hear, there's a pretty good black market for real lawn darts these days.

1976-77 was probably my favourite year for Saturday morning tv. Loved the Krofft Supershow, Monster Squad, Scooby Doo/Dynomutt...and my personal absolute favourite, the Kids from C.A.P.E.R.

And I've still got a set of pointy lawn darts. *G*

(Teletoon Retro airs 60s-80s cartoons in Canada...sorry for the disjointed thoughts, commenting as I'm listening to the podcast)

Didn't watch C.A.P.E.R. too much, but I remain obsessed with the Krofft Supershow to this day. Did an entire BEE on it during Season One: http://bestepisodeever.com/best-episode-ever-07-the-krofft-supershow-0

Your KSS podcast was the first BEE I listened to...loved it, loved the show. (still have some audio cassettes with their songs, as well as their album)
