He's My Friend, and a Whole Lot More...

Some time near the end of my six weeks in Boston, I was in the Campus MovieFest van, a.k.a. Big P, with Vijay, Stace and DAQ, on our way to the M.I.T. finale. Somehow the topic of old cartoon shows came up. Moments later, DAQ randomly started singing a verse of something from my childhood. Something I've mostly blocked.

"Denver, the last dinosaur. He's my friend, and a whole lot more."
"Denver, the last dinosaur. He's my friend, and a whole lot more."
"Denver, the last dinosaur. He's my friend, and a whole lot more."

This is, of course, from the short-lived 80s cartoon show "Denver: The Last Dinosaur," which told the tale of a surviving green dinosaur who skateboarded and played guitar in a kids rock band.

All in all, something we all need in our lives.



I thought posting it would give me a little more to work with than just those two lines that were on a continuous loop in my head ever since early April when DAQ first uttered the phrase, but alas, it's just making it worse. And so I've spread it like a virus. Muhahahaha...
