Bugaloos Board game Australian Version

Cool Australian version of The Bugaloos Boardgame I found on Esty a few months ago

The pieces are different compared to the US version of the game, the color of the dice is green compared to the US which is red and the pieces are a different design rather than the US's sorry game looking pieces

Very Interesting

BUGALOOS CHRIS STRATTON NOVELS #1-3

I have all 3 Bugaloo novels now. I bought them from Amazon, and Abebooks.com as well as a rummage sale.

The first two I purchased in middle school, the last one is being delivered tomorrow from North Dakota.


The last one is the first novel of the series The Vile Vibes,


It's an intro to the Bugaloos and they are four british rock musicians who played with their firefly Sparky and deal with this crazy wanna be singer Benita Bizarre *coughs* {bitch}who makes the Bugaloos life hell because she's untalented and very ugly. Now there are Vile Vibes who are going to destroy their forest,

I haven't read the first novel yet but I will make sure to make a blog about this book when it arrives

The second novel was like a sequel to the Vile Vibes book except with new characters


The book is called Rock City Rebel and it basically is a conflict between The Bugaloos having to put up with rebellious reb teenagers who want to get rid of Benita Bizarre and end her oppression. Apparently Benita rolled over all the flat people with a steam roller and that's what the people are flat. I thought the second novel made The Bugaloos characters developed more than the series got to.

I highly recommend this book


The third book was called Benita's Platter Pollution and that was about Benita stealing the deed to Tranquility Forest and a bunch of conmen helping The Bugaloos get their home back. Benita evicted The Bugaloos

Anyways the third book was cool too, different characters. I like the Ancient Wanderer and his brother Bactrian who are both con men and gave Benita Bizarre the deed to Tranquility Forest.

I'll write a blog about the other two books too!

How The Bugaloos Changed My Life

     
    My name is Elizabeth Marie Ann Connell and I am the biggest Bugaloo fan there is and am proudly
the creator of my Bugaloos fan page on Facebook please visit http://www.facebook.com/TheBugaloos.
I also like Family Matters, Full House (The first 3 early seasons) and other Sid and Marty Krofft shows.
A little about my life, I was born November 15 1993, a great many years ago I might dare say (just kidding) to a attorney and a housewife, My father worked as a attorney for a bunch of other places. My mother worked at Safeway's offices doing paperwork before she signed up to be laid off. My dad probably would be proud especially since he also was a Bugaloos fan too.

I was born with a learning disability, which means I was born with a low muscle toe and a small form of autism, that means I had floppy muscles and couldn't cut well and I couldn't write great until elementry school, I also get tired easily if i run. I had to do therapy to walk and also to speak in complete sentences. I was picked on till the 7th grade, I've been to school for 15 now 16 years and I am pretty much normal except for math which I hate hate and hate forever. Math makes me feel stupid, English makes me feel smart. My father died when I was eleven it changed my life
 
   The first reason why I grew up liking The Bugaloos so much was because  Big John (Mcindoe), Little John (Philpott) {There are two Johns in the series} Caroline Ellis and Wayne Laryea (or as Elizabeth Josh's cousin refers him as Mr Harmony because she can't pronounce Armartie as his now name) were all like my big brothers and sister, I never did have any older siblings as I was the oldest of 3 yes three children. I have 2 younger brothers

The Bugaloos was also the place where I could go and ignore blissfully the fucking problems of my family life, the bullying and hypocrites. Anyways the show built conference in me, I also now believe in myself more because of Big John, Caroline, Wayne and Little John. I looked up to The Bugaloos as a kid

Thanks to the Bugaloos Im in college planning in majoring in early childhood development and am also going to get a bachelors degree in teaching. I ride horses, play soccer and am living life to the fullest. I like puppets, kids animals and I want 21 pets that include 5 dogs, 2 cats, an anole lizard, a hamster, a pond full of goldfish, 2 horses, backyard chickens, 3 goats, 2 rabbits, 2 guinea pigs, 2 hermit crabs, a corn snake, a tortoise,  3 turtles, and an aviary full of canaries and parakeets, I would also like 2 rats, a parrot, a crayfish some ducks and 4 mice. I also would like to have 7 kids, but I can take 5. My hobbies are playing soccer, collecting old toys and books, I also draw and am learning to play the guitar.

Well that's me if you want to know about The Bugaloos visit my fan page

My favorite Bugaloo

Im actually going to list a few of my favorite characters.

1.) Sparky- Sparky was just like me in many ways. He was afraid of heights, the dark, and many other things. Well Sparky always got a good quote from any Bugaloo telling him he needed to believe in himself one of the quotes came from IQ "It just goes to prove, you can do anything you want to as long as you got confidence in yourself." Sparky was lovable, shy and bumbling, he was also very gullible
and often believed in stuff such as pranks like Joy was 80 etc. So thanks Sparky for helping to believe in myself.

2.) Harmony- Harmony was what I wanted for a big brother/father. I never had a older brother as I was the eldest. Harmony was cool funny and smart. Oh he was very handsome. Even if i have to wait till i die to meet Wayne so be it cause im sure he's glad that i like The Bugaloos. Harmony is a bumblebee and he played the keyboard

3.) I.Q. was tall blonde and handsome, He was a grasshopper cute and loving. He was number 2 of my crushes. I.Q. was also like an older brother to me. He taught me to believe in myself when no one else did. I think he is cool too!

4.) Courage was cute too. He was always concerned for his friends and his courage made me feel braver. He was also like an older brother. Courage was a male ladybug who played the drums

5.) Joy was like my older sister, So kind and caring to Sparky and the boys. She reminded me of Snow White a little bit. She liked animals and treated the bug boys as if they were her brothers.

And that;s all my favorite characters so thanks for reading!
