Off the Mark by Mark Parisi for August 16, 2011

At Last!!!Hated that roadrunner, smug little beep!

Plymouth RoadRunner in a can! BEEP BEEP!

Very funny, Mark!

good one mark!

YAAAAAYYYYYY!!!

This is just plain sick!!!

The Coyote has legal troubles of his own.

Is that Acceleratti incredibilis, Hot-roddicus supersonicus, Speedipus rex, Digoutius-unbelieveablii, or Batoutahelius? Or maybe it’s just good old Geococcyx californianus.

I hope Wiley don’t eat too much—it can give him the runs…..◘

Great one! Is it fat-free, and gluten free?

Geococcyx californianus is the actual classification name of the Greater Roadrunner. Don’t ask me – I didn’t name it . That was a guy named René Primevère Lesson back in 1829, when California covered a lot more territory than it does today. By the way, that name wasn’t used in a Coyote & Roadrunner cartoon until 2003, The Whizzard of Ow.

For a look at the Greater Roadrunner’s range, go to http://tinyurl.com/3qa485l.

Only available for a limited time. This is some FAST food.

Unfortunately, Wiley E. Coyote still had to cross the train tracks to buy the can.

I know we have roadrunners around here, but since moving to AZ in ‘98 I’ve only seen one twice. Best was one standing at my patio doors- startled me so that I just admired and forgot to make note of how tall (may have been 18-20").

Packed in TNT. That should be a real blast to open.

always hated that stupid bird. step down. next case.

It’s a cartoon. The Roadrunner will jump out of the can unscathed, say “Beep! Beep!”, and run off. Wile E. Coyote will then look in the can in shock, and the TNT will go off in his face. :-P
