I loved Scooby Doo as a kid. Still think it is better than some of the stuff they have out now. I might do a yearly challenge for next year with Scooby Doo.

Oh it's definitely better! My daughter even watched reruns of Scooby and came to love it as much as I do. A yearly challenge of Scooby Doo would be awesome! (hehe it'd fit right in with the mysteries I love reading!)
