In my first engineering job the chief engineer took time after lunch every day to walk back to his house and watch Rocky and Bullwinkle. He was a good guy. I am more than twice the age now he was then. My childhood favorite series of Rocky & Bullwinkle was the Metal Munching Moon Mice. I owe to R & B my fear of short guys with big shadows and my devotion to tall brunettes in black raincoats. And my superb fake Russian accent: "BE HE HE HE!" The greatest show that ever was and still is, "The Simpsons" gave Homer the middle initial 'J' in honour of Rocket J. Squirrel and Bullwinkle J. Moose who got them from their creator Jay Ward.
