Love this focus and all the ideas! The Simpsons and postscript add a lot as well.

Loved this! I was a big fan of Charlie Brown and the soundtrack had a lot to do with it.

This is an awesome article! Regarding Tom and Jerry, here's the video of "Zoot Cat." It's hilarious.

Also my brother and I would joke about serenading women like in this Tom and Jerry cartoon, "Is you is or is you ain't my baby."
