I did a lovely article on Nick Shorts. I'm sorry if this article is a bit dry. I'm juggling around with 3 articles right now and soon to start a forth. I wanted to finish up one of them before I head off to Zern's tomorrow, camera in hand, ready for some fun. I have to make sure I take my quarters with me, as I'm told there's a nice arcade out there. When I was real little, around preschool age, there was an arcade a couple blocks from my house in Allentown. It was in the back of a place called Fat Boys Deli. I used to go there all the time and get slushies and play Ms Pac Man. Or at least move the stick around and pretend to play Ms Pac Man until someone took pity on my adorable little self and put a quarter in for me.

So anyway, I've got lots to write about so keep checking back!

    I remember all of these short films that Nickelodeon used to play. I also remember "Poetry in Motion" and others. One question I have for you regards the possibility of one forgotten short animated flick. I am not sure what the exact title is, but I believe it was something like "The Killing of an Egg" or some crazy BS. It showed this huge guy with an egg-shaped head, and he was about to crack open a hard-boiled egg. Everytime he put a crack in it, the wall behind him would also crack, thus showing that the man himself was living in an egg. Do you happen to recall this, or am I just plain crazy!?? I think whoever made this was going through a major acid trip when he got the idea. Thanks for your help!!!

    Today, when cleaning out my old apartment, I was talking about how much I loved Sports Cartoons when I was little, and I actually found the VHS tape we copied from the library.
    I was so thrilled, but everyone I told about the tape looked at me blankly. "You mean with Goofy, right?" one said, while in frustration I tried to describe the hippo, blue cat, and pig.

    Your article not ONLY helped me put a picture to the description, but reminded me of all those shorts from when I was little. Man, it makes me miss them! They're all vague images in my head now, but thank you thank you for even having anything about it at all! You are my heroine.

    Now...can we find any of them for WATCHING? Hm.

    I just came accross your blog today. Thanks for reminding me of so many great Nick shorts.

    There's one I barely remember but it would come on every so often. It was animated and followed a black cat walking around an apartment room and playing with the TV remote, or something like that. Any idea what that was?

    I need your help. These were alot of great Lost shorts you mentioned, but there is still one that isnt on this list that I have been trying to find. It was a short where it featured a bunch of dinosaur/monster creatures in a car, that pull up to a grassy area and start building a house, and end up putting doors in wrong places and such, and at the end of the short they have a picnic outside. Do you remember this short? I have been looking everywhere to find it, and I was wondering if you knew where to find it.

    Thanks!!!

    Please please email me if you remmeber anything about it.
