R.I.P. Art Clokey
« on: January 09, 2010, 12:40:06 AM »
the man that created Gumby passed away Friday. I always kind of thought that he had to be at least a little bit of a stoner to come up with Gumby.  http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/34778153/ns/us_news-life/


My name isnt Gum, it's GUMBY DAMNIT!

That's really sad.  I loved Gumby as a child and even as an adult. Davy and Goliath too.  Back in the early 80's I went to a Gumby film festival and Art and his wife were there and after the showing they hung out, answered questions, and signed autographs.  The whole audience joined them in a sing-a-long of the Gumby theme song.  A truly wonderful couple.  RIP Art. :'(


This is the original opening that I remember from the mid sixties when I started watching.
