    I wish I could help, I really do, but this is not something you should let anyone influence you in. Some decisions are just that - hard. One thing I can promise to do for you though is to let you know as soon as I find out someone new is alive.

    They also say, don’t make decisions on an empty stomach.

      I know that one. I’ve been meaning to draw this for you for a while now, but I just can’t seem to get around to it.

        B.

        I’m not even surprised. I already know of your immense knowledge of animated deep cuts. I made (some) effort to find you something where nobody says anything and is a little bit topical.

          Believe it or not, no matter how late I ever stayed up, The National Film Board of Canada never played that one on the T.V. It’s new to me.

              It’s relatively easy to publish a cartoon like that in 1946. Obviously I understand that it’s not necessarily about what it’s about, but it’s still easy to publish a cartoon like that in 1946. I’ve always held the troublesome opinion that you can’t make a truly great cartoon unless you’re at risk of getting beheaded. And I don’t feel like I’ve made any strides today towards getting my head chopped off.

                I understand. The pursuit of the tormented artist content creator. I agree that is the one who produces the - to use your words - truly great work. Maybe next time we can look at some war-period Toyen ink.

                This has been an inspiring exchange. I daresay am a little bit less certain about everything.
