A DO BEE is good, and a DON'T BEE is bad. Thus a Dubious reputation would be good. All you have to do is avoid a Don'tbeous reputation! Biggles PS, I hope I'm not rubbing off on you, I think.

She'd look through it, directly at the camera, and say "I see Johnny and Mary and Sue" and on and on. And then warn us to DO BE A DO BEE and DON'T BE A DON'T BEE. But, I can't diss her too much because, in my heart of hearts, I liked "Romper Room" a lot. I was what, 4? No accounting for taste at that age.

What about you? (If you dare!).Dec. 1970. Romper Stompers were yellow plastic cylinders with a string attached that you would walk on. That is the best (only) picture I could find. Apparently it is also the name of a Russel Crowe movie from 1992. Anyone seen it?

I really should be old enough to remember Romper Room, but I can't - oh well. L Murphy Beige - jimbow8 - 12-07-2004 L Murphy Wrote:Thanks!

Probably selling well because of his name. Kind of a Sid and Nancy type genre with a dark twist. Beige - Maggers - 12-08-2004 the Oracle Wrote:Yep. I own it on DVD. It was okay. Probably selling well because of his name. "Romper Stomper" was a huge success for Russell Crowe, sorta jump started his career in Australia. His Aussie film that I really like is one called "Proof," also stars Hugo Weaving. |
