Plot
It's race day, and first prize is $2 million (less $1,999,998.37 in taxes). Porky's little car is matched against cars driven by stars of yesteryear, including Laurel and Hardy and Charlie Chaplin. When the black #13 driven by "Borax Karoff" makes a bid for the finish line, can Porky fend him off?

A hiccup or hiccough ( /ˈhɪkəp/ HIK-əp) is a myoclonus of the diaphragm that repeats several times per minute. In humans, the abrupt rush of air into the lungs causes the vocal cords to close, creating a "hic" sound.
In medicine it is known as synchronous diaphragmatic flutter (SDF), or singultus, from the Latin singult, "the act of catching one's breath while sobbing". The hiccup is an involuntary action involving a reflex arc.
A bout of hiccups, in general, resolves itself without intervention, although many home remedies are often used to attempt to shorten the duration. Medical treatment is occasionally necessary in cases of chronic hiccups.
Researchers at the Respiratory Research Group, University of Calgary, Canada, propose that the hiccup is an evolutionary remnant of earlier amphibian respiration; amphibians such as tadpoles gulp air and water across their gills via a rather simple motor reflex akin to mammalian hiccuping. In support of this idea, they observe that the motor pathways that enable hiccuping form early during fetal development, before the motor pathways that enable normal lung ventilation form. Thus, according to recapitulation theory the hiccup is evolutionarily antecedent to modern lung respiration. Additionally, they point out that hiccups and amphibian gulping are inhibited by elevated CO2 and may be stopped by GABAB receptor agonists, illustrating a possible shared physiology and evolutionary heritage. These proposals may explain why premature infants spend 2.5% of their time hiccuping, possibly gulping like amphibians, as their lungs are not yet fully formed. Fetal intrauterine hiccups are of two types. The physiological type occurs prior to twenty-eight weeks after conception and tend to last five to ten minutes. These hiccups are part of fetal development and are associated with the myelination of the phrenic nerve, which primarily controls the thoracic diaphragm.
I'm intrigued but,
I can't get the words to speak
Something abot the way she looks at me
Ties my tongue so nervous inside
Eyes (eyes)green her body's like fire (fire) hot as hell so I try, baby

t's not clear what's outside to draw you and others
there. a search for what you don't have, maybe you
weren't meant to find it. close the door, lock the gate,
we've got everything we need. a pattern of leaving and
moving, you're still empty-handed. what we have is a
generator, all you've found is a magnet. make something
Some day without trying you'll find something that's rare
Like an eight letter word on a triple word square
And I knew a girl who thrived on second-hand news
She wore clips in her hair and she judged boys by their
shoes
Call it coincidence but whenever we're together
You're on top of the world while I'm under the weather
(The weather)
A thousand ideas I try to tell crossword girl
How do I get one across when you're always too down?
And if things get hard will you throw in the pen?
But if you are unsure you can pencil it in
Call it coincidence but whenever we're together
You're on top of the world while I'm under the weather
(The weather)
Hold your breath for up to ten seconds
Ask a friend, a good friend, to scare you when you least
expect it
And if that doesn't work stand on your head and drink a
glass of water
Call it coincidence but whenever we're together
You're over the moon while I'm under the weather
