3. Be fine with me if there wasn't
In fact, it'd be fine with me if time had stopped in 1965. :)

13. That might work.
But what if I come out with my arm attached to my head? Or... worse?

14. That never happened to Tony and Doug
They just kept goin' from time-place to time-place. :(



Well, there was that time when they were between time-places and "feedback" ("A bad one!") caused the tunnel to just stop, prompting Lee Meriwether to say, quite dramatically, "If we don't get them out in seconds, they'll be burned to death!"

I guess it's not widely known that time is made of fire.



Also, I'd kinda like to know why it takes time to travel in time, but the answer would prolly make my head hurt.

15. Time is made of fire, eh?
Hmm, we may need to rethink this.

I could always drive through the tunnel instead of walk, then it would take less time to travel through time. But, what if I ran over my mother when she was a child on the way out? Then I would never be born to travel back in time and run her over in the first place which means I would have been born to run her over...

Yeah, I know what you mean about that headache.

21. Gah!
Didn't know you knew that. :D



"We have a flop."

"A what, Captain?"

"A place to sleep."

"One might have said so in the first place."

9. Same here
The Wagnerian satire "What's Opera, Doc?" was ranked no. 1 by some Animation People, but I think they're outa their tiny little minds. "The Rabbit of Seville" was much, much wittier.

20. Not the real propaganda ones
Stuff like "Super Wabbit," though, and one about how scuttlebutt grows each time it's passed on, and the one where Bugs and the gremlin are in the bomber and it's going straight down (and the airspeed indicator reads "INCREDIBLE, ain't it?") but it runs outa gas and stops about three feet from the ground because, as Bugs says, "You know how it is with these 'A' cards." :D

Also, I have on VHS a 1944 FDR campaign 'toon, sponsored by the UAW, called Hell-Bent for Election that was directed by Chuck Jones.
