"Change your Facebook profile picture to a cartoon character from your childhood and invite your friends to do the same. Until Monday (December 6), there should be no human faces on Facebook, but an invasion of memories. This is a campaign to stop violence against children."
In lieu of the fact that nearly everyone on my friends list on facebook has changed their profile picture to a favorite childhood cartoon character, I have been reminiscing about my childhood.
Cartoons were so much better back in the good old days, so much simpler, or at least in my recollection they were.
I chose Scooby Doo, as he has been and always will be my favorite. There is no reason in particular that I have this obsession with Scooby Doo, though it is quite evident given the fact that a large stuffed version of him sits in the back window of my car, and has sat in every car I have driven since I was sixteen.
Now this particular scooby doo was not one that came along with me through my childhood, no my mother bought him for me for my 16th birthday. Don't worry my dad bought me the usual 16th birthday gift, a car, though it never ran and never would, it was parked in our garage for four years. I miss that Volkswagen beetle, certainly was a shame.
Now since I have been reminded of all the great shows from my childhood in viewing friends profiles, or even my daily feed informing me that "so and so" and " 25 other people have changed their profile picture." I think It's time to sit down in front of my TV and watch some cartoons
