From the E-Mailbag…

My longtime friend The Great Jerry Beck sent me this message about the preceding video embed…

That was a great Johnny Mercer music video you posted today, featuring clips by The Great Chuck Jones. I hadn't seen that before and will be sharing it with others.

But I wouldn't be a typical reader of the blog by The Great Mark Evanier if I didn't point out that the clips contained therein also included work by the Great Bob Clampett (1:32 – Elmer in drag from The Big Snooze), The Great Friz Freleng (2:25 – dancing Do-Do's from Dough for the Do-Do), and The Great Robert McKimson (3:35 – Foghorn Leghorn from Crowing Pains).

The Great Jerry Beck is right. The Great Mark Evanier lowered his greatness a few notches by not noticing what The Great Jerry Beck noticed. Henceforth, he shall be The Not-as-Great Mark Evanier. He is shamed.
