  Yeah, yeah. This is the TINY TOON ADVENTURES Upcoming Episodes Central, not
the Steve Jackson House O' Propaganda. That's two doors down.  B-)

  "Toony Tykes" is an insult to TTA fans who take is personally. On the other
hand, TTA _is_ listed as one of the references for "Toony Tykes", in the back
o' the book.

  What? No Mr. Popular? No Acme Vaccuum Cleaner Salesman? No Rod Sterling?
No Rabbit Chase? No Yosemite Sam and Elmer Fudd? No "Sugah Dumplin'"? No
"Ruffee's Baby from Heck"? No Biff VanDerBunny? No Blink Winkleman? No Prince
Charles?

  If Buster doesn't do disguises, you're not a toonster.  B-)

  The Great Old Ones have no sense of humor. Get 'em outta here. H.P.
Lovecraft got clonked on the head with an anil, anyway.  B-)
