For He's a Jowly Good Fellow


Just in on the station house ticker: Snack-loving celebrity canine Scooby-Doo® is celebrating his 50th birthday today. (That's bloody 350 in human years, according to our Texas Instruments® calculating device.) Much like the Great & Glorious Dane Marmaduke™, Master Doo-Right represents all that is loyal and good in man's giantine best friends. The double-chinned sleuth served capably 'board the Mystery Van for years, 'longside non-credentialed teen policing associates Freddie Jones (banana blonde and ascotted), Daphne Blake (the hot one), Velma Dinkley (bookish and bespectacled) and last but certainly not least, his partner in crime-fighting, Norville "Shagforth" Rogers (the chin-haired dope). On behalf of the digital citizenry worldwide, we send "Scoob" our fond regards, which is to say, our wish for 350 more years, totaling 700!
