Sadly, since the demise of his film career, Popeye has fallen on hard times. He now lives in a garbage can, eats all the worms, and spits out the germs.

Betty Boop is much hotter than Olive Oil.

By the way, you know why Pop-eye never rusts?

Must have been popular in England, too. Thousands of WW II RAF Wellington bombers were known to the crews as "Wimpys".

Speaking of which, what's your favorite Popeye cartoon?

Mine was "It's the Natural Thing to do". Where Oliver tried to teach Bluto and Popeye some manners, b/c a cartoon viewer complained they too crude. ('Course at the end all THREE of them ended up in a brawl!)
