television or radio. And there was this 7-year-old boy who said he
preferred radio because the pictures were better."

Alistair Cooke- BBC radio
'Letter from America'



Stan Freiberg likes that story, too. Now I'm trying to picture Fred
Allen passing himself off as a 7 year old.

I don't want to imply imagination is a universal attribute of radio
listeners. Consider the small subset who consider the entertaining
radio talk show blowhards to be some kind of great modern philosophers.
Sheesh. Better to learn physics from Warner Brothers cartoons.


Wiley Coyote has always been on the forefront of physics.

True! But his plans never would have gotten off the ground if not for
the fine products found in the Acme catalog. And since a deaf guy has
already been a talk show host, I have to figure Acme has a gadget to
help a mute coyote enter the exciting world of radio babble.

Imagine the possibilitles! The coyote could use half his show to
mischaracterize road runners, and the other half to expose those
mischaracterized road runners as evil unpatriotic fools.

There's good money in that, too. The coyote need never again worry
where his next meal is coming from. It would only be a matter of months
before the coyote developed the rotund physique so fashionable among the
talkalti.

Starman,

It was suggested that I study Theatrical Physics in Collage.

You should be studying "How to type anything without using +, = and
signs 101".
