This week’s challenge for the League of Extraordinary Bloggers comes from the great white North, and the Canadian Cave of Cool. Cal wanted to know your favorite childhood movie, but I thought it would be fun to open up the topic slightly…

When I was a kid, my favorite _______ was _______.

REMEMBER!: The League is always open to new members! Got a blog? Write a post in response to the weekly challenge, and you’ll be included. It’s that easy!
Once you put up a post on your site add a comment below with the URL. Next Monday, I will put up a post here on Cool & Collected with a list of all the contributing blogs. Once that list is posted, if you haven’t already done so, try to incorporate at least three of your fellow League members’ links (but more would be great!) into the article you wrote on your site.
By cross-posting like this, we will help each other out by sending new readers to each other’s sites. Have fun!
(Wondering what the heck this is all about? We’re recruiting for this loose-knit, rag tag crew! Here are the details for contributing to The League.)

Wow, I’m having a harder time with this one than I thought I would. I had so many favorite _______’s!
Jon says
Haha, you said open the topic “slightly”…you’ve opened it up to just about everything! You’ve stumped me again, good sir, so I’ll have to ponder over it for a while…
Brian says
Just a teensy weensy bit. 😉

I’ve been looking for a reason to write about these guys for a long time! I give credit to Chris Tupa for inspiring my idea! If I hadn’t seen his post I never would have thought to write about these!

Man oh man. Just when I wanted to jump back into the swing of things, you gotta pick something broad like that. Hmm. I’ll come up with sump’n.
Brian says
Where have you been??? Glad to see you back!
leftylimbo says
Just busy, that’s all. I have so many projects and stuff that I’ve been putting on hold for much too long, so I had to tackle ’em. Glad that the League’s still going strong, and always happy to contribute! Thanks.
