Poll question: didn't you, just once, want the coyote to catch that Road Runner?
"Road Runner--if he catches you you're through."

or

2. What I always wondered is why he didn't just take some of the
money he was spending on all that Acme equipment and just go buy a steak dinner.

:think:

11. I thought I hallucinated that one!
Nobody else I know has ever seen that and I had started to think that it was all in my head. Thank you for affirming that, at least in this small way, I'm not totally insane :)

22. No hallucination
he chased him through a series of pipes that got smaller and smaller, when they came out the coyote was only an inch or so tall holding up a sign that read well you always wanted me to catch him.

9. Not only do I want the coyote to bring the roadrunner's life to a bloody end
but I won't rest until Sylvester eats Tweety bird. But not before ripping his annoying heart right out of his annoying body. :D

12. In the 70s my sister had a T-shirt of Wiley Coyote holding RR
up by the neck with the caption "Beep, Beep Yurass!"

13. I've always despised the Road Runner.
Tweety I wasn't crazy about.

Bugs and Pepe Le Pew, though, are great.

14. I always thought if Wile E caught the RR
he'd be so shocked he wouldn't know what to do w/ him.

15. RoadRunner: yes, Tweety: NO.
Two very different situations there.

16. Of Course!
I mean he's just being a Coyote or a Cat in Sylvester's case. And although I did have a kind of respect for the RR the Coyote was much more interesting :) And tweety was just annoying, I always rooted for Sylvester. :evilgrin:

20. YES! Roadrunners are nasty birds.
They're nothing like the multi-colored silly bird on the cartoon.

Coyotes aren't anything wonderful either but they get my vote in this skirmish.
