Or I’m bored. I can’t decide which. ---

Bugs ain’t never pointless, man. Bugs is the cornerstone of our media-based civilisation. Should be on the curriculum of every school in the world. I love Bugs. Bugs is a god. Hail Bugs! An’ it’s _real_ late at night for me. Been pasting photocopied sheets of an old, rare newspaper onto backing board. For 4.5 hours. Can paste fumes affect the brain? ---

God, did I really post that? 😉 Truly, that was Bugs’ greatest song. And I’m so pathetic I have it memorized. Methinks I need to get out more. ---

I think that I have been on another planet. Or something. What is “Bugs”? A movie? A book? I think I _may_ need to get out just a little more.😃 ---

It’s from the Chuck Jones cartoon **The Rabbit of Seville** , one of the great Bugs Bunny cartoons. So is **What’s Opera, Doc?** , another Jones cartoon cited in this thread. ---

Was the great Bugs singing as “The Barber of Seville” or “Sweeny Todd”? I can picture the opus in my mind’s eye, but can’t quite complete the recollection … Gasp! **cheezit!** You are not aware of the great Bug’s works! Hasten thee to a Warner Brother’s cartoon marathon quickly! ---

I was **just** thinking of Bugs Bunny songs about a half hour ago, and I then I see this thread. What got me started was thinking of today’s date, April 30, and that tomorrow must be May 1st, because… Thirty days has September April, June, and Montana All the others have cold weather Except in the summer time which isn’t often… [sup]I know you people have heard that song…right???[/sup]
