I would get up, get a bowl of Frosted Flakes, and watch the test pattern on the TV (I was up so early) waiting for the cartoons to start from the sign-off the night before.
I've noticed the PC police have altered many of the old Warner Brothers cartoons. 
If they start messing with the Three Stooges I'm calling for a revolution.

Man ain't that the truth?!! Them pointy head " intalectules" claimed that the old cartoons spawned a whole generation of violent children.

In a psychological study, where they finally got around to asking the KIDS what scared them, they said, "the news."
I started buying up the older Warner Bros. cartoons on VHS and then on DVD when my kids were younger so that they could enjoy what I grew up watching. Now, it's my grandson's turn.
Just for the record, there isn't a violent bone in any of my three adult children's bodies ! Must be sumthin wrong with em.

Saturday morning cartoons....
Did not make us violent,
They made us laugh and made us happy children.

Being retired, I can watch the old Warner Brothers stuff, free of PC editing, Monday through Friday from 1130 to 1300 Eastern, on Boomerang, an offshoot of the Cartoon Network. And do, a lot of days. Mel Blanc was a true genius.
I had to watch them in the theater, growing up before television.

Go online and watch the banned "propaganda" cartoons from WW2 as Bugs and the others fight hitler, Tojo and others. No way the pc police allow these on TV.
I would as well, if I were awake enough on a Saturday morning
Retired or not, Saturday is still my day to sleep in.
We were the first ones in our area to get a TV, my friends and I after school would turn on the TV and watch the test pattern.
They also taught us what NOT to do. The efforts of Wile E. Coyote come to mind.
I always liked how Bugs Bunny mocked establishment type characters, but Yosemite Sam especially!
Life lessons for us all.
Use guile and wit to get out of a bad situation.
If that fails, whip out that giant mallet.

From about age 12, I needed Saturday morning to recover from Friday night. Cartoons are really over rated when it comes cartoons or sleeping late on the weekend.
There were a lot of cartoon voice over actors but Mel Blanc was the king!

I'm a general contractor. The older I get, the more of I find myself talking to some young subcontractor and channeling ol' Foghorn. "I say, I say boy, what are you doing!!
He's probably my favorite character of the them all.

"Slow poke Rodriguez". ....I always wanted to use it as a name on a shooting forum; but I figured the only people that would "get it" would be few and far between.(and old)
