Okay, you're gonna love these! Just remembering some of the old them songs from back in the day when I was a kid watching TV everyday. WOW! Scary that I still knew all the words.
Pinball Number Count
My commentary: I think it's humorous that this song counts to 12. Why? Of all numbers, why twelve?
My close friend's know that my favorite number for years has been 12. Not only was I born on May 12, but my best friend (my sister) was born on Dec 12th (12/12). The #12 is everywhere and it signifies so much. I think I first liked it for it's biblical correlations when I was a missionary. Twelve symbolized governmental perfection: 12 sons of Jacob, 12 Apostles, 12 tribes of Isreal, etc.. But now I've taken it's symbolism to mean something similar, but different for me...
Twelve is perfection. We have the ability to be perfect and everything points towards that. It's something we can strive for... Perfect Happiness that never falters would be my ultimate goal.
Other Twelves: 12units = dozen, 12hrs on clock, 12 months in year, 12 Jurors on a Panel, 12 Astrological Houses, 12 signs of the Zodiac, etc... the list goes on... it's a perfect number!
Reading Rainbow
My commentary: Ah!! What happened to kids shows like this? All the cartoons we have now days teach kids to dress sexy, or how to talk cool, etc... and starts to mold them into little monsters! ha ha If I had a kid, I would not want them watching TV. I'd give them a book and let their imagination run wild. Remember the word above my fireplace? Listen to the lyrics of this song... "I can go anywhere. Friends to know, and ways to grow... I can be anything!"
