Ah, the joys of Spazzdad.

If any of you haven't read them yet, you gotta check out Todd Smith's posts on "The Idiots at My Work."

I feel the same way about Tweety Bird.

My title, however, if from the awesome Bo Diddley song Road Runner.

Bob, I said I wanted the Coyote to EAT him. I was all excited that maybe he finally had. But no dice.

Now that you mention it, I've always hated the Roadrunner theme song. It's like Percy Faith were leading a PTA choir or something. What was Warner Bros thinking when they cooked that one up?

Now that you mention it, I've always hated the Roadrunner theme song.

This is for you, arthappy:

Everybody sing along:

"If you're on a highway and Road Runner goes beep-beep!
Just step aside, or you might end up in heap!
Road Runner, Road Runner runs on the road all day.
Even the Coyote can't make him change his ways.
Road Runner, that Coyote's after you!
Road Runner, if he catches you, you're through!
Road Runner, that Coyote's after you!
Road Runner, if he catches you, you're through!
That Coyote is really a crazy clown!
When will he learn that he never can mow him down?
Poor little Road Runner never bothers anyone.
Just running down the road is his idea of having fun!"
