A Sleestak Christmas!

I had a meeting once with a very spry Marty Krofft and I guess I made his electronic mailing list so I get sent a Christmas card every year.    They're always freaking great and so was he.

In the meeting, he told me when they were trying to cast H.R. Puffenstuff  in London, Jack Wild (the boy in the photo),  beat out another musically inclined 13-year-old British kid named Phil Collins.    Marty also quoted his father who always told him, "On your worst day, help somebody else out."
