To hell with those; didn't they watch every episode of Pinky and The Brain?

Gawd... I forgot Pinky and the Brain. All we need are really smart mice, and we will have no vegetables left.

I ran across a DVD set of oerhaps two dozen episodes of Pinky and the Brain at one of our wonderful Half Price Books stores (surely the best thing about living in Texas), looked longingly at it, recoiled at the price (probably $15 or $20), and... found it under the Christmas tree, thanks to the consistently generous Stella. Brain has to be the best adult cartoon (and not in the perverted sense of the word "adult") in the first two decades of the 21st century. I miss it a lot!
