DAFFY SOT UP FULL: "Shoot him now! Shoot him now!"

TRACK: Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, Tweety Bird, Road Runner, Wile-E Coyote and of course Porky Pig, all sprang from the pen of Chuck Jones...who said - in many ways his characters kept him young:

JONES SOT (paraphrased): Working with strange creatures like Daffy and
Bugs all those years doesn't/didn't instill me with dignity.
TRACK: It DID instill him with honor after honor - three Academy Awards for his films - and a lifetime achievement award in 1996. His original artwork - along with Picassos - on the walls of the Museum of Modern Art...a far cry from his start selling sketches on the street for a dollar apiece.

PORKY SOT UP FULL: "That's all folks!"

TRACK: Though porky pig and the Warner Brothers cartoon characters he created were wildly popular with kids - Jones always said he didn't consciously draw for a young audience:

JONES SOT (paraphrased): We tried to make pictures that would make us
laugh and figured the audience would follow.
TRACK: Generations did follow. And Jones continued to crank out new titles ..turning out more than 300 films in a career than spanned more than 60 years.

The New York Times reports investigators are focusing on the speed of the two planes as they try to figure out why the second tower to be hit-- was the first tower to fall.

That's about 100 miles an hour faster than the first plane.
