Everybody's Waiting Here at Pooh Corner!

Who remembers the original Disney Channel?  When my sister and I were little the Disney Channel was awesome, amazing, astounding!  We remember being Welcomed to Pooh Corner, getting fit with Mickey while Mousercizing, and flying from town to town with Dumbo’s Circus.  Our love of Mickey Mouse and his friends was created by our mother and cultivated by the original Disney Channel.  We loved watching Mickey Mouse cartoons in their entirety.  The Disney Channel is making strides by creating the Have a Laugh series.  However, they are cheating children, adults, and future generations out of incalculable joy by denying us the full cartoons!  I teach children with special needs.  I use Disney cartoons as a motivator.  The old black and white cartoons from the 1920’s and 1930’s seem to be the favorites among my students!   We love to watch Donald have his tantrums while Chip and Dale wreak havoc on his life.  Goofy’s innumerable accidents make me feel better about my motor skills.  And Mickey and Minnie are the ultimate romantic couple.  More relationships should last as long as Mickey and Minnie’s!   If the children I teach and those of my friends are any indication, the love of Disney Classics is alive and well.  This love needs to be cultivated with the creation of a Disney Classics television channel.  My family and I have begun a letter writing campaign to lobby for the creation of this channel.  We need many more to join so that those of us who love Disney can be heard!
