Ross Bagdasarian Sr.!


The creator of the Chipmunks would have turned 100 years old. Time sure really does fly. It's hard to believe this year will mark the 60th Anniversary of The Chipmunks, and the 35th Anniversary of the Chipettes!

Now, for me, my brother introduced me to the Chipmunks/Chipettes when we watch The Chipmunks on Channel 3 (NBC). I was watching the show on my little crib and the couch. I enjoyed listing to The Chipmunk Song every holiday season! And I remember one time, my father did David Seville's trademark yell "ALVIN!" every time he sees the Chipmunks on TV. I have their Christmas albums and most of their non-Christmas albums on CD.

In 2008, ACME Crime Net famously used the Chipmunks/Chipettes on our fics created by me and Nick "TVLubber". The rest is history!
