I'm not sure if the coyote or the anvil will do more damage ultimately. When he hits the ground there is always a large poof!

btw, what animal is the roadrunner supposed to be? (never knew, neither wondered about it till now!)

KnowWonNose [deleted] says:

@TheAlieness The roadrunner is a roadrunner. It's an actual bird. Just doesn't look like a roadrunner in cartoon form.

Here is one on Flickr

And a great movie!

TheAlieness GiselaGiardino²³ says:

Oh, thanks for the input, knowwon! Didn´t know the roadrunner was an actual bird (and true, it´s very different to the cartoon!...)

Cap'n: that was funny! Yeah they say it´s a great movie, didn´t see it yet ( *embarrassed* )... I am a bit out of date with movies, I admit. :-P

One of my Native American friends is called Anatka (not sure of the spelling), which is Chumash for Roadrunner. A great, fast and clever little bird.

Thanks for the notes and the links!

I don't think roadrunners are all that drab... they're kinda cool looking... especially when there little feet go so fast and they run. I've only seen them a handful of times in my life, but it was always exciting to actually see one.

sandrino, great addition as well, thanks from my part too.

Still impressed about this real roadrunners... I can´t help thinking that cartoonists absolutely *do have* an imagination. And we are all thankful for that!!!

You have a point there, Sandrino. I was lucky to see a real coyote in when we went up the mountain to see the Hollywood sign in July:

Not the greatest photo, but the sun had just started setting and I had the ISO too low, so it's a little blurry.

Excellent.

I own an actual ACME Anvil, made by Sears a hundred years ago. I suppose I should take a picture of it, possibly balanced on my head.

I always wished the coyote would get the roadrunner... just once. I've heard in real life, they are vicious little birds.

My grandpa has always been a big Wile E. Coyote fan... partly due to the fact my grandpa's name is Wylder, but he goes by Wylie. ;)

Great sign, Kevin. :)
