My favorite cartoons are the FogHorn LegHorn & Dog ones done by Robert McKimson. He died in "77" FogHorn comes out with about the best one liners in all the Loony Tunes..

"Nice boy and all, but about as sharp as a sack of wet mice."

But Chuck Jones was the best cartoon producer ever..

One of Jones' most popular films, What's Opera, Doc? was inducted into the National Film Registry in 1992 for being "among the most culturally, historically and aesthetically significant films of our time.

"Chuck Jones' originality, his humor and his pacing still have no peer today,"
---director Steven Spielberg.

I'll miss that OB!
