UMMM ... NOT THE MOST PC CARTOON


Wow ... Growing up I used to LOVE Popeye. LOVE him... I think Papa H might've like him as well. He had an undeniable heroic nature. What's more, Popeye was a sailor, a loner, talked to himself and fancied himself quite the scrapper. Yeah, Hemingway would've dug 'em.

As a lad, he was it for me. Dunno why exactly. Deep down, he seemed like a sweetheart of a guy. I'll go as far as to say I would eat green construction paper from time-to-time, pretending it was spinach.

But try to forget i just told you that. (blush...)

Anyway, check out the WWII-era B&W short of Popeye doing his thing for Uncle Sam.

Whew. How we've come a long way in so many respects. The video is not to most PC stuff to watch - so apologies if it offends anyone.



As a bonus ... This is just as bizarre.
