That Cartoon From Facebook: “Hershey Bar”

I don’t know the name of it, but I call it, “Hershey Bar” just the same.

This particular cartoon came from George Takei.

You know, Sulu from Star Trek: The Original Series. That Takei.

Well, if you don’t know, Takei sometimes drops some interesting knowledge on his FB feed. This was one of his recent drops of knowledge.

Had me rolling; I think the guy never fails. He’s not on FB all that much, but he more than compensates when his shares appear.

And his videos ain’t too shabby, either.

Enjoy…and also for some of you guys, take a lesson.
