...what do Alf, Garfield, the Muppet Babies, the Smurfs, Slimer, the Chipmunks, Winnie the Pooh and friends, Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, Huey, Dewey, Louie, and Michaelangelo (of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle variety) have in common, aside from the fact that they're all cartoon characters?
Give up yet?
The answer is right here. (32 minute video, dial-up users beware!) For those who don't feel like waiting for it to download, it's a public service announcement from the early 90s called "Cartoon All-Stars to the Rescue" that features popular cartoon characters from the 80s teaching kids about the dangers of doing drugs, and includes a brief introduction by none other than then-President George Bush Sr. The video is pretty low-quality, but still very watchable, and personally brings back some fond memories of those old Saturday morning 'toons.
How I missed this for nearly a decade and a half, I'll never know, but I'm definitely saving a copy of it now, before it disappears again.
