Sunny Captain Crunch?

Seriously? They really have a Superhero who gives people advice on the Credit Crunch, cleverly named 'Captain Crunch'? ... Oh, the Sun... They sure know how to brighten credit-challenged Brits' days...

Captain Crunch

He'll help you solve the...
Da Crunchi Code... (and you just thought puns couldn't get any more lame:)

Well, I'm just going to point out some cereal ads from the 70's featuring a quirky, silly, slightly self-obsessed character by the name of Cap'n Crunch -> the only captain on the planet who has a brand of cereal named after him! What an honor...





And of course all that 'Captain' business reminded me of my childhood and the one hero who, in relation to my previous blog post, could save us all from the impending horror of 2030!

Captain Planet rules! He was the best. Now that I have seen this trailer/opening again after so many years, there are so many crazy things about. Lenka from Soviet Union? I have forgotten about this. And no one from Europe because we are so many and so different. Ha! And Wikipedia says: "Captain Planet is an ancient entity, who has served with Gaia for many centuries." I think there is something going on between her and him, like the that queen and her general in "We Will Rock You", remember Martey? But it doesn't matter, Captain Planet is the best, f*** Crunch Cap etc. :)

Oh my, go Wikipedia for spicing up the scene! Hahaha, very much like "We Will Rock You"!

Yeah, and apparently the Soviet Union is a continent, if we follow the logic of all the other Planeteers' homeplaces... :)

The power is yours!
