Awakenings from Then ’til Now allows you to Embrace Your Past, Empower the Present, Enrich Your Future.
Welcome to Awakenings
Life IS history in the making. Every word we say, everything we do becomes history the moment it is said or done. Life void of memories leaves nothing but emptiness. For those who might consider history boring, think again: It is who we are, what we do and why we are here. We are certainly individuals in our thoughts and deeds but we all germinated from seeds planted long, long ago.

"Th-th-th-tha-tha-tha-that's all, folks!"
Don't you just hate to miss someone's birthday? You thought about it days before but somehow when the day came...OOPS! You totally forgot. It has happened to the best of us. Same goes when a blog post carries with it celebration on a specific date. Today is March 10 and not only that, it is almost over. So, no time to waste in publishing a belated blog post. Anyone who is familiar with Looney Tunes has to know Porky Pig. Yep, yesterday was...
Porky Pig is an animated cartoon character from the Warner BrosLooney Tunes who won the hearts of millions of viewers as he stuttered his way through cartoon land. His signature trademark is closing all the Looney Tunes
with the phrase "Th-th-th-tha-tha-tha-that's all, folks!". Porky Pig is the oldest continuing Looney Tunes character - the innocent traveler, taking in the wonders of the world.
Porky Pig first appears in the cartoon "Porky's Moving Day". The plot...
A woman's house, on the side of the cliff, is about to fall into the
sea, thanks to waves washing away the cliff. In a panic, she call's
Porky's moving company. Porky's assistant, a former boxer, starts
swinging when he hears a bell until he is hit on the head, when he stops
and says, "Okay, boss." Porky's van is pulled by an ostrich. They get
to the house and have various adventures while moving the furniture,
mostly because the entire house keeps tilting back and forth on the
shaky ground. Finally, a big wave washes most of the house's contents in
the van.
While Porky Pig often plays the sidekick to the rest of the Looney Tunes, he is wise and good-natured, but also shy and cowardly. He tends to be the voice of reason among the Looney Tunes. Some of Porky Pig's later appearances include "Who Framed Roger Rabbit", closing the movie in the same way he closes the Looney Tunes cartoons, part of the TuneSquad team in "Space Jam", and "Looney Tunes: Back in Action", whining about how
politically incorrect he is considered to be nowadays. He plays the Eager Space Cadet in the television series "Duck Dodgers," based on some of his previous movie serials. In the television series "Tiny Toons Adventures," his nephew, Hampton J. Pig, is introduced.
This, of course, is only a sampling of Porky Pig's stardom.
