If he can afford to buy all those devices to utilize for catching the roadrunner, why can't he afford to just buy something to eat?

    Why do we spend hundreds of dollars on guns and such to walk around the woods trying to shoot a deer? That money would buy a lot of beef :)

    Yep, he could have just sent to Cabela's for some sausage.

    That's what happens when you're white and working. Equality is hard to find.

    You, kimi, on the other hand, live off welfare and food stamps. Has your significant other quit the block yet or do you still need her income as well for your crack pipe?

    Where's your sense of humor, Hairy? You have had a lousy two days, cheer up, guy! [:)] I have to hand it to you, though, for finally equating white with work and equality...hang in there, bud! [:)] I did not think that an officer and a gentleman would stoop to talking about another person's wife. Yeah, you have had a couple of real bad days, Hairy, what with your idol Saddam and Kwanzaa getting hung back to back...but you'll get better...I think. Like I said, Hairy, hang in there Bud! [:)]

    He could just buy a shotgun, and blow him away. However I believe that wile E. coyote is 'stupidis maximus'.

    This question was addressed by Wile E. Coyote himself. Roadrunner is the ultimate delicacy for (cartoon) coyotes.

    Question about Wile E. Coyote

    He must be a common thief, or worse yet...














    ...an elected government official!

    it's all at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wile_E._Coyote_and_Road_Runner

    quote:How the coyote acquires these ACME products without any money is not explained until the 2003 movie Looney Tunes: Back in Action, in which he is shown to be an employee of Acme. In a Tiny Toon Adventures episode, Wile E. makes mention of his protege Calamity Coyote possessing an unlimited Acme credit card account, which might serve as another possible explanation. Wile E. being a "beta tester" for Acme has been another suggested explanation. Wile E. also uses war equipment such as cannons, rocket launchers, grenades, and bayonets which are "generic", not ACME products. (Why he never ordered some food to ease his hunger pangs is also unexplained).you can view the entire Illustrated Acme Catalog here.

    How would they know since no (cartoon) coyote has ever caught a (cartoon) Roadrunner?

    actually, Wile E. Coyote DID catch the Roadrunner, once. The prob was, he (the Roadrunner) was 200ft tall, and Wile E. held up a sign that said something like, "OK, smartypants, NOW what do I do??!!"

    PS, Wile E> has a revolvong charge account with Acme Products. [:D]

    I suspect Wile E was actually an Illegal Immigrant Coyote. That would make the government (us) responsible for his satisfaction. So all the stuff he needed to eat, live, pursue happiness,medical care for all the times he got busted up and possibly to comply with religious beliefs would be our responsibility to provide.[:D]
