Blog Guy, can you clear something up for me? I saw photos of President Barack Obama and other major European leaders at the D-Day ceremonies in France, but there is one guy in a uniform who isn’t identified.
Yes, I noticed that, too. I believe he is Captain Kangaroo.
Excuse me? Why would Captain Kangaroo be with world leaders?
He was a war hero in World War II, fighting alongside actor Lee Marvin. So it makes sense.
Not really, since a) that Lee Marvin/Captain Kangaroo urban legend has been widely debunked, and b) Captain Kangaroo is dead and c) you’re a total moron!
You know, I think Captain Kangaroo was a NAVY captain, so it must be someone else. Maybe he’s the head of the military junta that runs Belgium. I’m glad I was able to help.

That’s a very, very old joke; I remember that from when I was in elementary school, and I’m 50 now. Besides, whose pants are you talking about? Since I don’t see any socks or ankles on any of them….
