Do you recognize her? That's Rosie, she was the robotic maid for the Jetsons. I believe Rosie may have been the original Roomba. Here's a 30-second commercial where Rosie proves herself to be more than just a maid.....
Now for some housekeeping of my own.....

I wish I had a Rosie. Or a real live housekeeper a few hours a week. I'm not picky.
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend!
Two things that pop out about that video. First is that I saw a porn version of The Jetsons once, and secondly, George was really a lazy ass.
ReplyDelete@ Tracie - I hear ya! I have a Roomba, but that's only good for the floors.
ReplyDelete@ Don - A porn version? I can only imagine, was it in cartoon form? I'm going to search for this on YouTube.
Rosie Rocks! Hi, found you by way of Hot Flashes and had to stop in. Great blog. Thanks for making me laugh! And congrats on being nominated. You know what they say, it's not the winning, but it's always great to be nominated, blah blah blah!
ReplyDeleteI was all set to hit the submit button on my vote thing-y and then it tells me I have to sign up. I will but I don't want to lurk on this page much longer. Good luck!
ReplyDeleteMike's a great writer. I voted for him last week.
ReplyDeleteI have also voted for you at the Studio 30 site.
Good Luck!
As for Rosie, she's a popular gal. I hope she practices safe..er....cleaning.
The Jetsons were the best. I grew up watching it, as well as all the other simple, happy shows of the 60s when life was uncomplicated, until the dark day that Kennedy was assassinated, which changed everything. Sorry. I'm in a bit of a blue mood today. Glad your blog has got a sunny yellow disposition. Just what I needed.
ReplyDeleteI could really use Rosie over here... then I'd have more time for blogging!
ReplyDeleteI remember Rosie very, very well!!! I used to watch that show all the time! :)
ReplyDeleteI want a Rosie Roomba!
Ah, the Jetsons. One of my faves on Saturday mornings. Yes I remember Rosie. She could do it all, couldn't she?
ReplyDeleteRemember that episode when Rosie injected George Jetson with that syringe full of heroin. Laughter certainly ensued soon after that or how about the time when Rosie quit being the Jetsons housekeeper and became a high paid prostitute with certain mechanical "talents".
Roomba!
Rosie is amazing. I loved the Jetsons and would watch it everyday in the evening. I even liked "Irona" from Richie Rich...:)
ReplyDeleteYour blog is very well designed and deserves this award....:)
Have a wonderful weekend!
I love Rosie!!!! (so much that I even made a homemade award of her a while back) She is the poop!!!
ReplyDeleteVoted and have fingers crossed for ya!!! Hope you win!!! (-:
I remember Rosie. Gotta love a robot with attitude.
ReplyDeleteOh and by the way, I did vote and I'm stalking too :)
