The man who gave the world What’s Opera Doc, Directed the animated special How the Grinch Stole Christmas, and was the creative force behind The Road-Runner and Wile E Coyote, Marvin the Martian, Pe Pe LePew, and countless others. Thanks for the memories Chuck. _________________________ Do not meddle in the affairs of Dragons if you are crunchy and good with hot sauce
