The Flintstones
There was an episode concerning Fred and Wilma's Anniversary. A reoccurring Anniversary themed jingle was played throughout the show. The jingle is stuck in my head and is similar to the opening of William Tell Overture. Problem is I can't remember the lyrics. Any help here might let me get the jingle over with so I can move on with life. Thanks 70.177.189.205 (talk) 01:37, 18 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Yes, it's from the finale portion of the William Tell Overture. It's mostly the same thing over and over. "Oooooh... Happy Anniversary... Happy Anniversary... Happy Annivesary... HAAAA-ppy Anniversary!" I'll see if I can find it on youtube or something. If not, I've got it on my iPod and will transcribe it. Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots 02:03, 18 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Here it is: and the words:  Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots 02:06, 18 September 2009 (UTC)
 * That is it, thanks, it was on indefinite replay while I tried to remember the words. It's been 3 days, hopefully I will now be able to get some sleep. 70.177.189.205 (talk) 02:23, 18 September 2009 (UTC)
 * And when you wake up tomorrow, "rise and shine" to the original Flintstones theme that preceded the famous, "Flintstones, meet the Flintstones," etc. For extra credit, do you know what that tune was? Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots 02:43, 18 September 2009 (UTC)

Raggedy Ann dance step
Back in the late 1970's or early 1980's one of my daughters was dancing the "Raggedy Ann" and now she wants to teach it to HER daughter, but can't remember how it goes. Any help on this would be appreciated. Thanks.

These youtube videos (http://video.google.co.uk/videosearch?hl=en&q=%22Raggedy%20ann%22%20dance&um=1&ie=UTF-8&sa=N&tab=wv#) maybe of use. If you don't get any joy here you might want to try asking one of the people that's uploaded a video to Youtube if they have the steps. ny156uk (talk) 16:18, 18 September 2009 (UTC)
