Happy Birthday, Mel Blanc
May. 30th, 2007 10:54 amOn this date in 1908. One of the gods of how we live, of what I do, of why we are the way we are.
Name a favorite voice he did, and give a favorite line of dialogue. As many as you want, really -- it's not like we're gonna run out. ;) I have great love for his quieter moments as Foghorn Leghorn, such as when he was playing hide-and-seek with Egghead. He hid in the corn bin... and Egghead figured out mathematically that he was actually buried a distance away... which Foghorn was. Whereupon Foghorn marches right over to that corn bin, stops, and says, "... No, I better not look. I just might be in there."
And of course I adore his voices for Marvin Martian and Wile E. Coyote.
