Sunday night toons

In which we learn that Daffy Duck is a Republican Uh....wrong caption, or wrong cartoon. But this one, by the late, great Tex Avery, is worth sitting through his trademark cruelty to get to the end, an anding that made me laugh so hard when I saw it at either the Thalia or at Leonard Maltin's old history of animation class at the New School in the early 1980's that I wondered how I'd ever get home:

Um, where's Daffy? Or for that matter, a bunny, ali baba or otherwise? Seems to be a signal crossed here.

OTOH, did you see how at 1:33 the incinerator turns the bulldog into a Chinaman? Conical hat and all. Laff and a haff.

No apologies for the term. This is old cartoons for you. Sighh. But man, they sure knew how to drop an anvil in those days, and that will always be funny.

Hassan CHOP!

Have a happy and safe New Year.
