Mandrake: You're a groundhog.

[Hubie nods]
Hubie: Come on, Bert. Let's get it over with.
Bertie: Yeah, yeah. Over.


Grover Groundhog: Snitch! Stool pigeon! Squealing on little woodland creatures. You ought to be ashamed of yourself. Oh, you do all right for yourself, getting food handed to you, a house to live in. But what have I got? It ain't fair, I tell you! It ain't fair!
Grover Groundhog: [Aside to audience] Dogs are suckers for a sob story.

Stan Freberg Facts
Founded advertising agency "Freberg, Ltd. (but not very)" in 1957. The company motto is "Ars gratia pecuniae" (Latin for "art for money's sake"). The seal for the company was designed by Saul Bass and pictures a real seal, wearing sunglasses.

He was inducted into the Radio Hall of Fame in 1995.

Got the idea for his classic, controversial satire on holiday commercialism, "Green Chri$tma$" (Capitol: 1959), from seeing an advertisement around Christmastime, 1958, of a family gathered around the tree, ecstatic at the sight of...four brand new snow tires. For Freberg, a Baptist minister's son, it was all too much, and he wrote the outline for the sketch that very afternoon.
