Animation: Professor Balthazar
The Croatian (Yugoslavian) Professor Balthazar was definitely one of my favorite cartoons as a child in the 70s. He was a kind scientist/inventor who solved every problem by walking around and around and around thinking and then... pling!! As soon as he had thought up the solution he rushed to his big machine added the right ingredients. The machine processed and processed and out came a few drops into his tube - the magic potion.

Does anybody remember this little man and does perhaps anyone have just a little clip to upload to for instance YouTube? For nostalgic reasons I would just love to see the sequence I just described.
If you find more on interesting stuff on Balthazar on the net than these nice screenshots, let me know.

Landmark: Lucy the Margate Elephant
Lucy the Elephant, Margate, New Jersey (1950s)
I think I may have said it before but don't forget to check in at Motel Hell. Have a stay at least once in a while. That's where I came in contact with Lucy the Margate Elephant, a New Jersey landmark built in 1881. Read more.
Music: Nimoy in da house.
Lenard Nimoy's "The Way I Feel" is available for download at Joe de Vivre.
Maybe something for the more adventurous Martin Klasch reader?
And while you're listening: do you think Mr. Nimoy will think of you? Perhaps!

Fronning will be away for a few days. I might be posting something anyway. However, if the Martin Klasch contributors have anything to post, this would be a good time to do so. Thank you. Good night and good luck!
