Default Blast from the Calgary past - Ed the Duck

Was thinking about some random Calgary events tonight and remembered this one. Hard to believe this was 1990! ... more than 22 years ago

Figured I'd share with the community in case anyone wanted to take a trip down memory lane.

Bonus Rescue 911 redux with William Shatner!

Part 1:


Part 2:

Holy ####, look at the skyline.

I know, have known, have met, or have seen on TV that fish and wildlife officer, Jack Morrison.

I've been trying to put my finger on it for 15 minutes.

Haha wow, blast from the past! I remember being in kindergarten or grade 1 not long after that being taught to always cut your can rings, and then harassing my parents about it.

Funny how into it I was watching that just now, I was so young I couldn't even remember if they had saved him successfully or not in the end.

Also, love everyone's flow.

Some good shots of the skyline in these videos, to see how far we have come. These would be from 81-83. Bonus points for the Ed Whalen appearance in the first video. Every time I see these, I instinctively crave a bowl of Shreddies, eagerly anticipating the start of Hercules and Abbot and Costello.

Still remembered the guy breaking his leg jumping off that bridge. Whoops.

And Al Duerr kinda looks like Ned Flanders.
