But, first... I got a lot of mail from people who said that he didn't do the Granny voice. This is not what I have heard, but it may be true. I am basing my answer on an interview I saw on PBS and an article I read in a newspaper (No, not the STAR). In both instances, Mel said he did all cartoon voices except Yosemite Sam. Actually he originally did the voice, but it hurt his throat, so someone else had to do it. More trivia - maybe tooooooo easy. Mel Blanc was in a car crash, almost fatal, and went into a coma. When he came out of it, what were his first words ? C'mon... THINK!! Mark
