Bad Luck Blackie: A kitten enlists the aid of a black cat that causes things like flower pots, safes, and battleships to fall on a bulldog that is tormenting him. (dir Tex Avery) (Click here for hi-res full-size pic.)
When Bad Luck Blackie takes his weekend constitutional through the news wires, the crap in his wake tends to be a little more foul than usual.
Note that the weekend timing of this stuff isn’t in itself cynical or ominous, it’s just that the appearance of some news in weekend dumpsters is the equivalent of finding a blood spattered wallet emptied of its cash in one dumpster and a recently fired handgun with the registration number filed clean in the very next one. I’m just sayin, is all.
