Calling all Prospect Place/Court and Sunrise Avenuers!
This is an attempt to connect with people from long, long, ago. Perhaps the connection will last one simple paragraph, never to be heard from again, or reignite to last a lifetime. Who knows. I just think it would be fun to catch up with people that share so many fond memories from childhood and beyond. Some of us already do still keep in touch. While some might be content to keep the past in the past. Either way. Lets see what happens.

I am a creature from 1974. I carry arrows in a wooden bucket, I hiss, hang out around pylons, and want nothing more in life than to capture Marshall, Will and Holly. Who am I?
You're really on the Sleestak kick today. The funny thing is that "Sleestak" was a misnomer pinned on these guys after they saw "Sleestak was Here" scrawled on a wall of the lizards' temple. Sleestak was, in fact, a civil war soldier who had been there 100 years earlier. He may have even been a lost civil war soldier of the carolinas.
My recollections were close, but off.
From Wikipedia, your source for Land of the Lost information:
Peter Koenig was a private in General Washington's Revolutionary Army who arrived in the Land of the Lost some time prior to the Marshalls. Koenig and his companion Harry Potts explored the Land extensively in search of a way back to Earth.
When the Marshalls first arrive, they discover a stone pillar in the jungle where Koenig had written "Beware of Sleestak" with chalk. The Marshalls only learn much later who had been responsible for this warning, when they discovered Koenig's journal. Koenig claims to have dubbed the Sleestak thus in honor of Major Joshua Sleestak.
Koenig met his death when he followed Potts' path into the Lost City. Koenig went into the third entrance, "where the pillars end," which eventually led through a narrow passageway into the "Devil's Cauldron." This was a lava chamber, with a narrow ledge, where he became trapped when the lava level rose, reviving the Sleestak. He preferred to await death in the lava chamber, rather than facing the Sleestak who had gathered outside the chamber to catch him. The Marshalls find Koenig's skeleton in the chamber and narrowly escape a similar fate.
Oh, and that guy up above was Enik, who was in fact an Altrusion - a distant, more civilized relative of the Sleestak.
Yes, I am a totally Ninja sleestak. I ordered the complete first season on DVD through Amazon.com I've been watching the mail like its Christmas. I also got the 1983 version of Day of the Triffids- I had no idea there was an update to the original film.
So I assume you aware that there is a Land of the Lost movie with Will Ferrell coming out?
