Ninety-nine plonk, ninety-nine plonk - a centipede with a sore foot![]()
Feets don't fail me now!
What you say when you realize the light at the end of the tunnel is a speeding freight train!
.
OK, who turned off the light at the end of the tunnel ?
That wasn't the end of the tunnel, but the middle. The light was the train.
A peanut sat on the railroad tracks,
His heart was all a-flutter.
Around the bend came number ten,
TOOT! TOOT! Peanut butter.
And the Roadrunner ran out of the tunnel drawn on the face of the mountain.![]()
And Wiley Coyote tottered out, supported by walking sticks.
And he looked up and raised his small sign saying "Oh, no!" just before half the cliff flattened him.
It was the only family tradition I shared with my father. We watched the Bugs Bunny & Road Runner Show at 5:00pm every Saturday. It was the only reason ever accepted to wheel the black and white TV set into the kitchen while we ate.
I used to bolt down my tea for the same reason [my Dad would not move the TV].

Road Runners are mostly carnivorous, though they do eat some fruits. They do hang around bird feeders, not for the seeds, but to catch the birds that come for the seeds. They've even been known to cooperate to kill larger game, such as rattlesnakes.
Cartoonic licence, I guess.
Like "Poetic Justice", with Janet &... was that Tupac? (I know Jada's upset with her depiction, but if it was him in the flick with "Wardrobe Malfunction", it's odd how silent show-'em-all has been!)

I saw a live roadrunner once while in a truck parking in Laredo, TX. I wasn't quick enough to take a picture.
It seems that an RR can be useful in keeping you clear of anything from a hairy spider to a Rattler.

Not a clue... But if something scares you when you're alone, don't show fear... Tuffet out.
