It is with a heavy heart that I inform you of the passing of the animator of Fred, Barney and the Flinstones characters.
Wait a second, age 94??? Suddenly I feel less remorse for this prolonged existence, not his death. With Cousins and relatives taking seriously ill at ages from 36 to 80 I can honestly state that this man had a good run.
Now morbidly looking at the funeral arrangements, Magilla, Yogi and Booboo were selected as pallbearers along with Bam Bam who is now 78 and can barely manage to bicep curl a cement truck. His memorial stone (which was carved by a hard beaked, tetchy prehistoric fowl) reads:
Here lies a man who knew that value of the environment (foot powered cars), friends (dimwit Barney), and quitting time (Yabba Dabba Doo). Punch your card, dear angel.
The funeral was musically endowed with several original scores from Quick Draw McGraw. It was estimated that as many as 7 guitars were annihilated on the stone casket.
Huckleberry Hound stood out as the most devastated, obviously unable to come to grips with the passing of his creator stating simply: Who? I thought I was here for a taping of "The Surreal Life"...
Burrial will be at Hollyrock's "Stone dead" cemetary. Donations can be made on behalf of the departed to the University of Hollyrock Geology department.

Did u know that the fellow that wrote "The Hokey Pokey" died too?
They had a hard time getting him in the casket. Every time they put his left foot in... well you know the rest.
