Being in the Right Place

Having one's groovy toes in the right place is priceless.

Fractional Birthdays

Why not celebrate all the birthdays, all the half birthdays, all the quarter birthdays, all the 7/8ths birthdays, all the... well, you get the picture.

Philosoraptor just wants to make me think too hard. Grumpy cat exudes his usual sarcasm.

If you're going to celebrate properly, don't invite these guys to your party.

Černé Pivo

Černé Pivo

If I ever find this groovy brew in the U.S., look out!

Bacon

Bugs Bunny

What's up, Doc?

Bugs Bunny is 75 today!

Happy bunnyversary to a groovy, groovy rabbit.

Nurses

Nurses are the unsung heroes & heroines of the world. That, my friends, is groovy.

Scott Ginsburg

This guy has worn a name tag since 2000, because it makes him approachable.

We groovy people admire his having leveraged an idea into a brand, an enterprise.

Good business sense. Good, groovy approachability.

Guardian Angels

A friend who's got your back. Awesome! Powerful! and groovy.

Wall Decals

Theoretically, you could put any message you want on your walls. You don't need a neat vinyl decal like this- you could use spray paint, shoe polish, or glitter glue.

We groovy people like this one, though, for both its aesthetic and positive message. That's the kind of reminder we want to put into our souls.

Evil Schemes

A 10 year old boy threatening to rid the world of music. Oh, what an evil scheme! Pass the popcorn. I can't wait to see how it works out.

Fruit Art

Playing with your food is not a bad thing, if it ends up being ART! Love this groovy idea!

Fishing

Who doesn't love fishing? Double groovy if you take little people with you and share the joy.

VBS

The best week of summer has begun!

Sonny Bono

We groovy people admire Sonny Bono. There is so much more to this man's life than most people realize. He truly was one of the good guys. We groovy people believe that he would be rolling in his grave if he knew the direction his beautiful daughter took with her life.

Lunchboxes

Remember lunch boxes? Every person, real or fictional, that you loved (we groovy people still love Henry Winkler) was probably featured on a lunch box. Almost everyone with whom we groovy people ate lunch brought their lunch to school. We groovy people do not remember free lunches. Ever. No such thing.

Polite Elephant

Everyone likes the polite elephant. He knows the right things to say and do.

We groovy people love the polite elephant.

Easy Bake Oven

We groovy people have to admire a toy with longevity - 50 years! It has its own book, web pages devoted to it and those who collect it/them.  

The popularity probably had to do with the combo (kids + food). We groovy people wanted this toy in 1967, more than we ever wanted anything. Didn't get it. So, we groovy people teach our kids how to bake with a REAL oven, from a young age. Because we can.

Katnip Kollege

Love, love, love this groovy cartoon.

Groove Monkey

Groove Bunny's cousin, Groove Monkey, was jealous and wanted to be included in the blog.

So we let him.

Jury's still out on his grooviness, though. We groovy people will watch him and update you later.

Groove Bunny

Hi! Hi! My name is Groove Bunny! Is your name Groove Bunny, too? Oh good! ...

John Hancock

Given that we groovy people have already, years ago, declared penmanship to be groovy, we groovy people are still in awe of the fact that our founding fathers thought to stand up for righteousness.

And John Hancock signed his name big enough that ol' King George could see it without his glasses. Or spectacles. Or whatever it was they wore to see back in 1776.

Gumption. Well played, John, well played.

He Was #1

Red, White, and Blueberries

What a great, groovy idea for a holiday themed breakfast! (We groovy people would eat this for dessert, a snack, maybe even lunch if no one were looking.) This idea from Mom On Timeout takes toaster waffles to a new level of grooviness! Enjoy!

The Star of Bethlehem

Did you see it last night? It was there, again, just like 2000+ years ago.

Wise men still seek Him.

Walking Taco

You take a small bag of nacho Doritos (or Fritos) and crunch them up. Then, you add to that same bag, all the other taco ingredients (meat, cheese, lettuce, tomato, sour cream) and eat it with a fork or spoon... to go. Way cool. Way groovy. And portable! Yum!

Onomatopoeia

No one taught us onomatopoeia better than Batman and Robin.

We groovy people see that Calvin & Hobbes are also a fan of it (and so is Marvin the Martian.)

Calvin & Hobbes

Very groovy couple of lads. Representative of every boy I ever knew.

Love them.

Snake Hunting

We Groovy People just have to laugh at this. It's just. Funny.

Muffy's Flash Pants

Too bad this isn't an animated GIF. You'll just have to watch the Arthur episode "Prunella's Prediction."

Bubble Shooter

Groovy, fun game. Simple. Brainless. Addictive, though. Don't say you weren't warned.

Skookum Cats

"Small, sweet, and curly: what's not to love?" says Animal Planet, about this new, tiny (3-5 lbs.) breed of cat. But they also admit that the word Skookum means, in Chinook, "mighty, powerful, and great." So, we groovy people like the cat, and like the word. We just wonder how the two came to be put together.

Peacock Feathers

With a nod to the NBC Peacock, real peacock feathers have their own aura of grooviness. God is such an amazing artist!

Marvin the Martian

Grooviness doesn't end at the stratosphere of Earth. No. It just keeps radiating out, in this case, to beings from other planets. Marvin the Martian tops the alien groovy list.

Cake

Cake is even groovier when it comes from classic Sesame Street. Happy birthday, sweet daughter of mine.

Normal

Nickels

Nickels, nickels, nickels! That beautiful sound of clinking nickels!

Can't Fake the Foo

 Arguably the best, and grooviest, chicken fingers. Ever.

Batpoles

Aside from the logistical advantage of getting dressed in the morning in no time, these poles are just really groovy!

Knowledge vs Wisdom

Learn from Mom's wisdom, or beware the mother's curse.

Celery Night Fever

If you have not seen the Veggie Tales episode Celery Night Fever, you are missing a great, groovy experience. It's a lesson about forgiveness, featuring groovy fashion and music.

World Domination

What's better than beating your mom at a board game? Beating your mom and conquering the world!

Mushroom Records

We groovy people find a couple of things delightful about this item. First, we already know that records are groovy. We weren't looking for a hat trick, but hey, serendipity.

Mushroom as a record label. Really? Is that like off-off-off Broadway? RSO, Epic, Decca and Arista aren't afraid of you, Mushroom. "We know you're just the wanna-be bad boy of the family. We only let you hang out with us because you're amusing."

However, "Crazy on You" by Heart, was really big in the late 70s.

We groovy people are surprised that one of the bigger labels didn't sign Heart. Their loss. Sometimes, the one you'd least suspect as being worth anything will come back and surprise you.

Plan B

It doesn't always work out the way we planned. Thank God for more letters.

The Eye of God

We are being watched.

Groovy Cats, Redux

Years ago, we groovy people proclaimed Laurel Burch's cats as groovy. Today, the cat came back! We groovy people are proud to report that she is as groovy as ever. Here's to aging gracefully, my groovy feline friend!

Betsy McCall Paper Dolls

A simpler time, a more modest bathing suit. What's not to love?
