One response to “Quote of the Day”
According to Wikipedia “Poindexter”, became associated with nerdy, dull people because of Poindexter in the Felix the Cat cartoons (1959-1961)
“He is the nerdy young nephew of the Professor. He is depicted as a stereotypical scientist; he is very intelligent and always wears thick coke-bottle glasses, a lab coat, and a mortarboard. A button on the chest of his lab coat acts as a control for whatever device the plot calls for. Despite the Professor being his uncle, he is also one of Felix’s best friends. Whenever he talks to Felix, he refers to him as ‘Mr. Felix’.”
