7. You beat me to Joe Btfsplk.
Couldn't find an image file!

I also thought of the Rain God from Hitchhiker's Guide, though he wasn't a cartoon character in the classic sense.

And Adam Duritz, from Counting Crows. Weren't most of the songs on that first album of theirs about rain, had the word 'rain' in the title, or mentioned rain somewhere in them? He is the Rain King. And it's Raining In Baltimore.

6. "Wacky Racers" or something
Edited on Fri Sep-03-04 07:18 PM by masshole
It had all those weird cars and all they did was race every week and bash each other. I don't recall his name but he was from the Caveman team I think.
Wasn't the bad guy's dog named Snert? He had that weird laugh.
We nick-named one of our dogs "Snert" after him.

LMAO I was way off. I did as google. This is what I was talking about, even if I was totally wrong.

10. I think the Cavemen were the "Slag" brothers, Rock and Gravel.
I loved that cartoon.

13. What was the character from "Gullivers Travels" on the Banana Splits?
Edited on Fri Sep-03-04 09:26 PM by Malikshah
Remember him...

We're all doomed....

I've been looking for him

On edit--

"Glum" Hapless....

Voiced by Don Messick. Still can't get an audio-wav or image of him.

Sounds remarkably like Joementum Joe from my recollection though...
