Hey Party Penguns,
sK1PPY1 here once more.

You've probably seen the commercial for the new movie "Mr. Peabody and Sherman" right. Well if you didn't know this already the idea is actually based on the short called "Mr. Peabody's Improbable History" that would be on during some of the episodes of "The Rocky and Bullwinkle Show" (my favorite part of The Rocky and Bullwinkle Show). Every time I watch the episodes it's as if they're new again. The old show was (and still is) a very entertaining series.

Here's a few facts about the old show in honor of the new movie based on it.

Peabody's Improbable History features a genius talking dog named Mister Peabody who has a pet boy named Sherman. Peabody and Sherman use Peabody's "WABAC machine" (pronounced "way-back", spelled WAYBAC in season 1, episode 4, and partially a play on names of early computers such as UNIVAC and ENIAC) to go back in time to discover the real story behind historical events, and in many cases, intervene with uncooperative historical figures to ensure that events transpire as history has recorded.[24] The term "Wayback Machine" is used to this day in Internet applications such as Wikipedia and the Internet Archive to refer to the ability to see or revert to older content. These segments are famous for including a pun at the end. For example, when going back to the time of Pancho Villa, they show Pancho a photo of a woman and he promptly feels the urge to take a nap. When Sherman asks why this is so, Peabody says that the woman's name is Esther, and whenever you "see Esther" (siesta) you fall asleep.
