Howl

Max has an interesting habit/compulsion.  When he hears a siren, it sends him into a howling fit.  Often in howling, he even imitates the siren itself.  Generally we find it quite cute and charming, but when a siren wakes him up at 4 AM and he jumps into full on siren-howl mode we’re not as amused.  I’ve always wanted to get it on video but we never knew when a siren might pass by to have a camera ready.  A recent episode of The Simpsons, however, features a very prominent siren sound and, thanks to the wonders of Tivo, we can now get Max to do his fire truck imitation whenever want it.  This is not as spot-on an imitation as he sometimes does, but it gives the general idea.
