Many PC games in the 1990s used these sound effects libraries, which is one big reason why I love using these classic cartoon sounds a lot!

Ever hear William Hanna and Joseph Barbera take a stab at writing a gospel song? This was performed by Josie and the Pussycats, with music by Hoyt Curtin. I recently bought this rare 45, from Kelloggs' 1970 tie-in promotion.

Congratulations to "The Day the Earth Blew Up: A Looney Tunes Movie" for winning the Music City Film Critics Association Award for Best Animated Film!

Coming off the news that Walt Disney Pictures' planned live-action/CGI remake of "Bambi" has been canceled, private toon detective Sam Valentino stands by his hunch that Disney is going to now stick with just remaking their 1990s-onward animated classics. youtu.be/nhzfAYwmWIM

When a pedestrian sees you driving up while waiting to cross and enters the street when you're several yards away...

An amusing moment from the worst Simpsons Christmas episode ever but with a more realistic sound effect for getting jabbed...

R.I.P. animation composer Guy Moon! ("The Fairly OddParents," "Back at the Barnyard," "Cow and Chicken," etc.) He also wrote some of SmartSound's royalty-free music tracks... www.youtube.com/watch?v=omh-...

Also on this day 20 years ago, Apple's iMovie HD 6 was released; the last version with its classic timeline interface, and the first to utilize some handy audio-editing features. I used it a lot in my early Mac days, and it still runs great on my PowerPC G4 Macs!

On this day 20 years ago, Apple put the first Intel-based Macintosh computers on the market, and Zak Wolf has those models in his vintage Apple collection! youtu.be/xhTboHhxTCs

Why do I get the feeling "3 Ring Wing Ding" is MeTV's favorite "Cool Cat" cartoon to feature in their Saturday morning block? #SaturdayMorningCartoons

There's just something special about seeing these black-and-white Looney Tunes shorts. This one is "The Daffy Doc" (1938). #SaturdayMorningCartoons

Hard to believe this year it'll be 20 years since the Wayans came out with "Little Man," obviously loosely based on the 1954 Bugs Bunny short "Baby Buggy Bunny." #SaturdayMorningCartoons

I don't like to repeat myself, but on this #FursuitFriday I am reminding you that while the Corporation for Public Broadcasting has shut down, PBS is still standing, but they do need our financial help! youtu.be/0Bg72cOY7sM

I've still been donating to WGBH as thanks for helping shape my childhood and for providing my mother some quality programming, with the Corporation for Public Broadcasting being no more and PBS seeing Viewers Like Us for funding. www.youtube.com/watch?v=PHrV...

One of the saddest deaths in "The Simpsons," especially since it came as a surprise (compared to the hyped-up deaths of Maude Flanders and Rabbi Krustofski).

I've seen posts on social media on New Year's Day claiming it was the 97th anniversary of the Looney Tunes. Well, as private toon detective Sam Valentino, I need to set the record straight... youtu.be/Iuc_QR2WR9w

Ralph: "I tell ya, Harry, that Trump is gonna make America great again!" Harry: (rolls his eyes in disgust as the laugh track is heard)

Oh wow, I can't believe the repair job on my M1 MacBook Air was so fast! It was ready to be picked up only a day after I dropped it off, and now I am using it again.

Maybe Merlin the Sorcerer could've landed a job with ACME's costume division? #SaturdayMorningCartoons

When I was younger, I thought Robert McKimson's unit had all fallen ill when making "Bartholomew Versus the Wheel" (1964) hence the unusual visual style, until I learned they were channeling James Thurber. #SaturdayMorningCartoons

What I especially remember about 1945's "The Unruly Hare" is at the end when a stick of dynamite sends railroad-building materials flying and then assembling as if they were model train tracks! #SaturdayMorningCartoons

Oh, just great! First "Doug," then "As Told By Ginger," and now THIS!

Well, my M1 MacBook Air is off having the keyboard replaced again (after previously doing so nearly 2 1/2 years ago), so until it's done I'm getting by on my backup computer: a 2019-21 16" MacBook Pro! I seem to be quickly picking up with the Touch Bar.

When you stop at a red traffic light, proceed when it turns green, and then stop for another red light just ten seconds afterward, it's like a game, or as Winnie the Pooh may put it...

I can't believe @ane.boston Anthro New England 2026 is only two weeks away! If you're looking to find me there, I will mostly be wearing Zak Wolf in cowboy gear (for the Western theme), only switching to Sam Valentino on Friday and Saturday evenings. #ANE2026 #FursuitFriday

Whoo! My slow and steady weight loss progress is going better than expected! I weight 18 pounds less than I did at the start of last year.

🎵 I see faces that I love, all my friends together with me... 🎵 🎵 Sharing wishes we all made, wishing for the new year to me. 🎵 Happy New Year 2026 on the East Coast!

My favorite fursuiting con pics from this past year... with @ferdinandferret.bsky.social and @squirrellyj.bsky.social!

"What was your biggest impact on the Internet?" I was one of the first (if not THE first) to bring Caillou into the YouTube Poop scene back in 2008!

*Pokémon Snap river music plays* "Slowpoke."

I thought I'd close out this year with another one of my fursuit cartoon commentary/reaction videos of another lesser-known wolf-related cartoon, the 1941 Columbia Color Rhapsody "Red Riding Hood Rides Again!" #furryfandom youtu.be/qm8ir3M8C4c

Now that there's snow on the ground, my parents don't want to hear any of the wintery songs like "Let It Snow, Let It Snow, Let It Snow." They'd rather hear summertime songs.

Snow, you’re two days late! YOU'RE FIRED!!!

On this #FursuitFriday, the private toon detective Sam Valentino sheds some more light on the pending Netflix and Warner Bros. merger, showing how apparently not much is going to change through this, compared to Paramount-Skydance! #Netflix #WarnerBros youtu.be/lqD8x8vb7-s

When Christmas music tries to seep into your mind on December 26th onward...

After dinner, my parents don't really want to do anything else with the holidays on Christmas night.

Christmas in my area today:

Something fun I got for Christmas exactly 30 years ago... www.youtube.com/watch?v=WtPF...

I'm with Buster Baxter. Sometimes I wish Christmas wasn't such a big deal, now that I'm an adult.

Here's my Christmas loot this year! But my brother kind of slacks off on holiday shopping for me, only getting me one of the few items I ask for. I guess he still doesn't understand the feeling of giving being better than receiving.

Waking up on Christmas morning: childhood vs. adulthood.

I noticed with the HD master of "Mickey's Christmas Carol," in addition to the excessive digital scrubbing, they removed the sound of Big Ben chiming when Scrooge leaves his counting house. This is how the scene was supposed to sound...

Regarding Grinchy parodies, before the Grumple (who sounds like a "Sesame Street" Muppet), the Simpsons comics had Itchy the Gritch! #TheSimpsons

Christmas in southeastern Massachusetts: expectation vs. reality.

Recently bought something to tinker with; a 16" Touch Bar MacBook Pro from 2019. Likely the last one that'll support the newest MacOS versions, but it's still a suitable "backup" Mac laptop for my needs especially anything still requiring an Intel Mac.

An amusing moment from the worst Simpsons Christmas episode ever but with a more realistic sound effect for getting jabbed...

The "Mighty Mouse: The New Adventures" episode "Don't Touch That Dial" is such a fun jab at the Dark Age of Animation, co-written by Tom Minton, who'd later write a very similar "Animaniacs" episode. There's even a hilarious "Real Ghostbusters" parody! #MeTVToons

Testing out my Audio Technica Sound Burger portable record player I plan to start bringing to furry cons next year!

"Rocko's Modern Christmas" is brought to you today by the letter "W!"
