For the seminal piece of art (or at least '70's Americana that it is)

The best of a very, very good lot:

I own the DVD.  ;D

My personal favorites are (in order):

Interjections! (http://www.schoolhouserock.tv/Interjections.html)

The Shot Heard 'Round the World (http://www.schoolhouserock.tv/Shot.html) (For some reason, I get choked up with, dare I say, patriotic pride when I hear this verse:

Quote
Well, they showed such determination
That they won the admiration
Of countries across the sea like France and Spain,
Who loaned the colonies ships and guns
And put the British on the run
And the Continental Army on its feet again.

I don't know how true this was, but it sure beats how Europeans see us nowadays.)

No More Kings (http://www.schoolhouserock.tv/No.html)

My Hero, Zero (http://www.schoolhouserock.tv/My.html)

The Preamble (http://www.schoolhouserock.tv/Preamble.html)

Rufus Xavier Sasparilla (http://www.schoolhouserock.tv/Rufus.html) (I think this one is really underrated. The lyrics are very clever.)

Yes, but they are not called conjunctions anymore in college writing and English classes. Well at least 'round these parts. Imagine my shock on day one when I was asked if I remembered my fanboys.  :-[

It was at that point that I new I was doomed, it was just a matter of time.

I think I actually said to Professor McSmartypants. "but they're conjunctions,  [sm_buddies] conjunction junction what's your function".

Everything I ever needed to know about civics and grammar I learned from Schoolhouse Rock.  [sm_bow]
