[The fate of the free world might rest within YOUR terminal!]
Two friends and I were discussing old cartoons on tv, and found that we
could remember a cartoon show quite clearly but can't remember the title
any more clearly than
"<???> Cat and Minute Mouse".
The show's premise was a hero cat with a mouse sidekick. Their car had
a cat-shaped grille, long sweeping fenders, and was shown driving in/out
of a tunnel with a great cloud of dust behind then. (The CatMobile?)
The cat always had a special purpose gun he used to catch his enemy, e.g.
a lasso gun, a net (not USENET) gun, a magnet gun...
Their archenemy was "The Frog", who sounded much like Edward G. Robinson.
The Frog always had a big cigar in his mouth.
The show is at least twenty years old, we think.
If YOU know the name of the mystery show, send your answer to
thiel@ut-ngp. DON'T post to the net!!!! I'll post the definitive answer
when I get it. The author of the winning answer will get a FREE
bit bucket filled with prop wash.
Thank you for your attention and assistance. Yours for an uncluttered net,

Thanks to the several people who supplied an answer to my Cartoon Question.
The consensus (with NO dissent--a USENET first?) is that we were thinking of
Courageous Cat and Minute Mouse
It's gratifying to get such a quick response. Thanks again,
