What was Underdog's verse before eating an energy pill? I think
it was something like:

"The secret compartment of my ring I fill,
with an Underdog super (secret?) energy pill"

Which reminds me of the Underdog theme:

When in this world the headlines read,
Of those whose hearts are filled with greed,
Who rob and steal from those who need,
To right this wrong with blinding speed,
Comes Underdog....Underdog....Underdog...Underdog...

Speed of lightening,
Roar of Thunder,
Fighting all who rob or blunder,
Underdog-og-og-og...Underdog....UNDERDOG.......

I think his "mild mannered" name was Shoeshine Boy...

When Unnnnnderdog isn't out popping pills and crimestopping, he's
humble and lovable shoeshineboy.

Customer (shoes freshly shined): Thanks shoeshineboy, you're
humble and lovable.

Shoeshineboy (you-know-who): Thank you, sir. (bites coin, giving us
a hint at the instinctively distrustful
nature of our hero)

What was the name of the U-dog gangster with the pin-striped suit and
hand in pocket? I think it's a wolf.

As I remember his alter ego was such a milquetoaste that he didn't even
HAVE a name - he was "lovable old ShoeShine", the shoe shine person.

The Lois Lane analogue, though I cannot remember whether she was a print
reporter or a TV newsperson, was "Sweet Polly Purebred" (also of the
canine persuasion).

What? A joke? Oh, oh, OK: Congress...

First, Shoeshine Boy's reply is actually "Bless you, sir." The name
of the gangster in question is Riff Raff, if I recall (he used to hold the
guy at the newsstand upside down and shake him until the change fell out
of his pockets). Can anyone remember any other Underdog villains
(other than Simon Bar Sinister and his henchman Cad)?

Riff-Raff. What was the name of Simon Bar Sinister's sidekick?

Sweet Polly Purebred was a TV newsperson, which sometimes put her into nasty
situations requiring the aide of our pill-popping hero (remember the ring?).

Another villain I barely recollect is the wimpy cat-person.

Translated joke from our resident Frenchie, Martine:

Mrs. Coutier's first grade class was learning about rhyming, and was told
to make up a short rhyme. Pierre came up with;
In the pond I make duck calls
I was wet up to my calves.
"Oh Pierre," she said, " you didn't understand at all. 'Calls' doesn't
rhyme with 'calves'."

"It's not my fault if there wasn't enough water."

Simon Bar Sinister's sidekick, whose lines consisted mainly of
"Gee ah Boss, I don't know about that", was named Cad. Or is it Kad?
