Something with a lot of salt-cured meats?

So what, like bacon? Ham?

Whatever the deli has on hand that's extremely salty.

On white bread.

A salty white sandwich.

The fox one? Yes, it's fun. As a little kid I adored it...I even had Robin Hood sheets!

I always loved Robin Hood. 1973, I was 5 years old, and the first movie I ever saw in the theatres.
Is it underrated? At the time, it was one of the highest grossing Disney movies ever. Don Bluth did quite a bit of work on it.
It also stood out because Disney released so few animated films in the 70s. Bedknobs and Broomsticks and Pete's Dragon had live action and animation, but the only other animated feature that decade was The Rescuers.
Walt died in 1966, and it took a long time for the animation department to find their feet again.

My senior year in high school, I got to meet Robin Hood at Disney World (some kid in a costume, but hey. In 1986 Robin Hood was pretty much a relic, he wasn't a thing anymore).
But I remembered him, and said "Oo-de-Lolly!"(his catchphrase from the movie)
he gave me such a big hug and picked me off my feet.

Still love that groovy fox.

Does your Twitter account have to meet certain requirements in order for celebrities or other verified accounts to actually see your tweets to them? The reason I ask is because whenever I treat to any of these accounts, none of them ever respond: I don't remember how many times I've tweeted to Frank Oz and he's never responded, but I've also tweeted to Brad Garrett, Tom Bergeron, Jerry Seinfeld, even SS's official Twitter account, and other companies like Kellogg's, and they never respond.

The only thing I can say about Frank Oz...
I saw him once in New York. He did a lecture and afterwards security said he would come out and sign autographs.
Outside was a courtyard. There was a sidewalk and on either side were fences people were behind. There were several hundred people on each side.
Frank came out and everybody went nuts. He would sign a few posters, records, etc. on one side, then the other. This went back and forth for ten minutes.
But it was total chaos. People were shoving things in his face, and others were pushing people out of the way to shove things in his face. No order, no manners, no patience, just "SIGN THIS FRANK!!"
It was pathetic the way they were acting. Not just Muppet fans, but Star Wars/Yoda fans too.
After ten minutes of this frenzy, Frank said he wasn't signing anymore. Someone got mad and yelled "You suck!" because he didn't get an autograph. And Frank, not one to mince words, chimed back "Well, F You!!'"

I didn't get an autograph either, I was too far away.
But I can't blame Frank. They want to meet with fans when they can, but they're entitled to their privacy too. When people mob them, won't give them peace, it's easy to get turned off by that. It wouldn't be fun to go out to dinner and having people interrupt your meal.

Why hasn't Frank responded on Twitter? I have no idea. I'm sure he must get bombarded a lot.
Maybe sending him a card or letter might work. And be patient. If he doesn't respond, too bad for him. But at least you're not invading his privacy.

Honestly fans like that need to learn to respect their idols as people.

Coming from someone who would like to get into voice acting someday, I can already sympathize all the frustrations people like him face with lunatic fans.

If you do get into voice acting, I'd be proud to say I knew you way back when.
And when mobs come at you for autographs, try to personalize them. "To Scarface, from Little Jerry". That way it will be harder for them to sell it on eBay. The only one who would buy it would be another Scarface.

Can I have your autograph now and avoid the rush?8)
