MEEP MEEP!!


Things overheard while watching the Coyote and Road Runner with a five-year old:

- Oh, the coyote is catching up.
- Look poppa, the roadrunner is about to do his trick.
- You can tell when he does his trick because the coyote stops.
- What does that say?
- (hotroddicus supersonicus)
- What does that mean?
- It means he goes very fast.
- Didn’t his nose look funny? It went all droopy.

- Oh, he is going to try to turn the roadrunner into a burger, that’s what the plan says!
- This isn’t going to work… Crack.
- I think he’s going to poof on the ground again…
- Look, he got all flat.

- Look, he just turned into a pair of eyes.
- Poppa, what’s dy-na-mite?
- Oh, he just boomed hisself up!

- Is he going to try to boom him up?
- He just boomed his self up again. He booms hisself up a lot.
- Why does it say ‘Eat at Joes?’
- You want to eat at Joe’s someday?
- Yeah.
- Now he feels all better, look at him, he’s brown again.

- Ooh, that might be good. Triple strength leg muscle vitamins!
- This is gonna be crazy, watch.
- See, he ripped through it and fell. I wonder how the roadrunner ran across. Maybe he jumped.

- Oh, maybe this might work…
- A five hundred libbed anvil.
- …how did he fall past the anvil on the way down?
- Well, at least he kept his anvil!

- …He went poof again.
- I don’t think that can ever happen, the bridge should have fell!
- I think the coyote’s tired, don’t you?
- Yeah.

- That’s not real, that would never happen!
- He should stop trying fireworks because he always booms himself up instead…

- Oh, look, he’s getting an idea!
- Ha! Look, he has a really big tongue, doesn’t he?
- Oh, this might work…
- Can we get some rocket-powered skates, pleeease?
- Oh, he going to get him with his aimer there. Oh, I guess not.
- The roadrunner tricked him up good, huh?
- If roadrunners can’t read, then how does he make all his signs?

- How do you get a whole tornado to go in a pill?
- Do they have leg vitamins at the store for real?
- Why doesn’t he just order a pizza?
- Hey poppa, can we order a pizza?
- Sure son.
- Hey poppa, guess what?
- (crossing his eyes at me)
- Two of you!!!
- Yes there are son, yes there are. . .


That’s all Folks!!
