I love the smell of carrots in the morning.  It smells like victory.

No.

Knowing: 4 discs, 56 shorts that'd be 14 for bugs, 14 for daffy. 14 for (I 
forget) and 14 others. I can think of 14-20 bugs cartoons that I like 
better than Opera. The reviewer, that said it was unedited, agrees with you 
that he wanted that short, more than one road runner, and a few others he 
thought were missing.

rec.arts.animation had a discusion centering on the idea that they were 
actually saving some of the best cartoons for yet another collection.

Buy this other 4 DVD set just to get What's Opera, Doc?  --we know we've 
got you by the short hares.

For those of us who have been living under rocks or been suffering fates

Sounds like something I'd be *very* interested in.

Took me WAY too long to find this. The main warner bros site had a loop 
that wouldn't refer to it.

http://www.wbshop.com/catalog/product.xml?product_id=15957

Fifty six top Warner Bros. animated shorts are now rounded up on DVD for 
the first time ever! Overflowing on 4 solidly-packed discs, they've been 
restored and remastered to their original, anvil-dropping, 
laughter-inducing glory. It's a one-of-a-kind celebration of the golden age 
of Warner Bros. animation. One disc focuses on carrot-crunching icon Bugs 
Bunny, another on the anarchic Daffy Duck and eternal straight man Porky 
Pig, and the two other showcase the rest of the Looney Tunes gang. 
Extensively entertaining and encyclopedic extras will make eyes pop and 
jaws drop -- just like being inside your own Warner Bros. cartoon.

Extras include a greeting from Chuck Jones; commentaries and 
behind-the-tunes featurettes with animators and historians profiling 
particular cartoons; excerpts from the original primetime 'The bugs Bunny 
Show; stills, pencil tests, and schematics.

I'm referring more to the list than anything else but I'm sure everyone 
knows about the Warner Bros. cartoon collection that just came out. I was 
holding judgement until I read that they would be completely unedited, no 
PC corrections or other things touched. It's shot to #1 on my wish list.

My friends don't know I'm doing this, but I tell complete strangers: I got 
another dating service match. My expectations are high and at the same time 
I'm full of dread, worrying I'll mess it up or just as likely this turns 
into another dead end. This service takes time so I won't know anything 
real for a while. Heck, I'm trying to think of a good, recent, picture I 
could submit of myself. My mother has two pictures of me in her room. The 
one, I don't even know how old I was, I was never skinny but I am in that 
one. The other is me and brother, at least ten years old. He still has red 
hair and I have a big full bread. I haven't seen any vacation pictures yet; 
maybe there is a nice one in that group. I'll probably be holding a glass 
of wine or a beer in all of them, hopefully my eyes aren't glassy. (Not 
that I was drinking, much, but it was a wine tasting tour.) Seriously, I 
wonder if I can get my sister-in-law to work the miracle of digital 
cameras: take a picture of me that looks natural but really isn't; 
something we work on to get it just right. And without her telling brother.

I have only one real friend I can talk about this with and I don't like 
too. He dates women that are beautiful. I'd take half of his castoffs (and 
have ;-). I just can't see how he can relate, he can talk to a complete 
stranger and be witty and charming. OTOH I can talk to groups of people 
easily but one-on-one with women my mind is either blank or racing too 
much. At the store where I work a female customer said something that I 
could have turned into the biggest compliment to her; it only took me three 
hours to realize it and think of a reply. She may have not been flirting, 
but it was a big opening. Oh well.

But my friend has his own troubles. Beautiful women have unique problems; 
stupidity and vanity are at the top of the list. 'Nuff said.

Have a couple of nice days. I'm off looking for another Bambi.
