    Will give you that. :)

    It was the mock Latin name given to Road Runner during the 'Wild about Hurry' episode of the cartoon.

    If you talk of Turandot, the opera was not finished when Giacomo Puccini died and Franco Alfano completed the work. In first performance the opera was stopped where Puccini stopped.
