That's All, Folks! Chuck Jones Dead
Legendary animator, Chuck Jones, creator of classic cartoon characters such as Bugs Bunny, Porky Pig, Road Runner, & Pepe Le Pew has died aged 89 years. When you were a kid was there ever a better baby-sitter than several hours of Looney Tunes & Merry Melodies? Thank you, Mr. Jones for all the great memories and, respectfully, "That's All Folks...."

Those were the only cartoons that I can recall much later in life. Something about them made such a lasting impression.

Chuck Jones and Mel Blanc
Yes they are memorable.
Their product carries through on so many levels of comedy that you never outgrow it.
They, along with Charles Schultz, will be sorely missed.

I feel very lucky now that my wife took me along 2 weeks ago to see "Bugs Bunny on Broadway" at the Sydney Opera House.
It was a wonderful experience and bought back so many memories(about 3000 people and about 10 kids.  ) The show also had a small section narrated by Chuck Jones which made it even more special.
It was wonderful art that crossed so many borders.
