In which a group of graying eternal amateurs discuss their passions, interests and obsessions, among them: movies, art, politics, evolutionary biology, taxes, writing, computers, these kids these days, and lousy educations.

Jim Carrey/Tex Avery

Michael Blowhard writes:

Dear Blowhards --

A brilliant golden-age cartoon, free for viewing on the web! Check out the character of the Wolf. Perhaps Jim Carrey should do the honorable thing and send a few royalty checks along to the estate of Tex Avery, the animation genius who created this little masterpiece.

(Link thanks to Sex 'n' Fun. The cartoon is perfectly safe for work. Sex 'n' Fun is no such thing.)

Best,

Michael

That is a great one. I actually just saw (parts of) The Mask last weekend and it did feature scenes from that cartoon - particularly the wolf going gaga at the table - playing on Carrey's tv before he finds out about the Mask, so the influence has not entirely gone uncredited.
