Oh man, I loved Gumby as a kid.   :(

Payments to foreign governments must be reduced, if the nation doesn't want to go bankrupt. People must again learn to work, instead of living on public assistance.”

Mr. Bill was so mean to him. Sad to hear the voice of Gumby is gone. RIP.
There were only two options for gender. At last count there are at least 12, according to libs. By that standard, I'm a male lesbian.

I didn't like him because he represented the sum of all my fears wrapped up in a green lump of clay.

Okay, seriously, I liked him and his pal Pokey too. RIP Gumby's voice!
