Thank you :) Let's do 8, no need to get all crazy with it, just a nice little mini-thon :)
Wait, I just remembered - I may already have a commitment on Saturday. It depends on if they keep the Superbowl on Sunday because of the blizzard...
I may just go ahead and make it a Star Trek thing, that was the pinnacle of his career. The most startling thing I learned about Hal was that all the 80's cartoons he has credits on through the 80's? He didn't actually work on them much. He "Retired" in 1974 for a combination of reasons that boil down to Lou Scheimer having drunkenly dissed him, and his kids being stereotypical 1970's college students. Lou called to patch things up a few years later and offer Hal whatever job he wanted, but Hal wasstill pissed so he said "Fine, you want me? Pay me (undisclosed ridiculous amount of money) a week and I'll decide what I do for that money". And Lou, to his credit, said "Anything for you, Hal". His involvement with any cartoon his name is on after that point is to have looked at it and said "Yeah, that looks fine, good job!"
