Now here's something that either helped kids memorize their ABC's or gave them nightmares for years.

As cool as JEJ is, I'm thinking many kids where asking Mom & Dad to leave the lights on in the days after this aired.

Perhaps not all of Sesame Streets ideas were good. Just ask Richard Pryor.

Remember that old commercial for Slinky.

The jingle went something like...

"It goes down stairs
Alone or in pairs...
Rolls over your neighbors dog..."

Well the attached video is not it.
It's a take on the song.
Just every time they say "Slinky" substitute a novelty sexual item that some people use in place of the real thing...

From the YBNBY sports desk...

Hockey season has begun and for me it's another year to root from my team to rise slightly above expectations. Which means make the playoffs and not have any more 10 or 13 game losing streaks.
(Lets go Islanders!)

But lets face it, I'm in the minority when it comes to loving ice hockey. Nothing I say or write about the beauty of the game, the toughness of the players, the skill, speed and excitement of it all will make you tune in to a game or buy a ticket.

Here's what might: Hot Girls. On skates.

You may not watch a game at all this year but as the new season dawns, I'm sure lots of people wouldn't might a preview the NHL's 2008-2008 Ice Girls.

So here goes...

Wow, you just don't want to piss off that Letterman guy. He is relentless.

Here's a collection of his greatest hit on the GOP VP Nominee.

It's a politically frustrating time in America with lots of crap and half-truths being spewed by both sides. Listening to it all can be really annoying.

At least I think so.

Luckily I've found solace in Pundit Kitchen. (Another Ihazcheezburger and lolcats creation.) Pundit Kitchen is a place where people of all political stripes and comedic abilities can make a point and add a laugh to this confusing time.

For your enjoyment, I've pulled some choice captions that made me smile over the past few days. There's even one which I just captioned today.

When you find a lynx in your house it's probably a good idea not to do what this lady is doing.

Agree?

Should we use kids to prove a point or make excessive parodies of idiot adults?

Manuel Uribe is the world's fattest man. A record he's not happy about.

So a few months ago Neatorama was one of the sites that reported he'd lost 1/2 his weight - 570 pounds from his high 1,257 pounds.

Well today we learned the reason for Manuel's rapid weight lose.

Manuel is getting married!
On October 26th, he will marry his girlfriend, Claudia Solis, in Monterrey, Mexico. They've been engaged for 2 years.

Now I'm sure you're wondering what the wedding plans are. Well the big guy says, "It will be a hefty wedding, on a large scale, but with a low-calorie banquet." He's asked Mexican band called "Pesado," or "Heavy," to provide the music. The couple will still have to arrive to the wedding via Manuel's specially made bed, as that's still the way he must travel.

Yeah love.

For this one I hope you all go balls out...

Vizelia is a software company that prides itself on helping save energy. And so in order to drive this point home the creative minds behind the company decided to show off the effects any business wouldl go through once they installed Vizelia.

You know, things like saving money, conserving energy, wasting less resources and being able to hire mud wrestling bikini girls to entertain clients.

Ah, further proof that every ad can be made better by adding a few nice asses.

Sick of the 2 party system? Sean Masterson (he of obscure character actor fame) is too and he's running to change all that.

He's the candidate for the Republicrats, a website that attempts to gain attention by using the Presidential election as a backdrop.

I thought he did quite well in the debate on Friday. Although some of his comments created a few awkward moments.

Here's DOT MATRIX REVOLUTION, the second pixel film by SUPERBROTHERS. A pixel filled film which began in 2006 and was completed just this year. It's s a goofy look at the world of computers and technology over the past 50 years or so.

...once when I was 32?

I don't know if Tina Yeakey, 32, is a fan of Jane's Addiction but I'm gonna assume she recently watched the Been Caught Stealin' video.

See, Tina walked in to a Michigan City Kmart the other day and walked out with a lot of stuff she didn't pay for.

Some of it was jammed in her purse.

The bulk of it was stuffed in her pants.

Here's how the bust went down: First officers approached Tina and found in her purse a bunch of really random stuff: two dental kits, a bottle of cologne, one toy car, 12 packs of Ponds Facial Strips, a bottle of anti-fungal cream, two fingernail kits and two bottles of foundation primer.

Then it got weirder.

When informed that she would be patted down by the officer, Yeakey unbuttoned her pants and pulled out...

Paul Newman has died of cancer at 83.

His foundation released a statement saying ""Paul Newman's craft was acting. His passion was racing. His love was his family and friends. And his heart and soul were dedicated to helping make the world a better place for all."

Read it all here.

A spokeswoman for screen legend Paul Newman says the actor has died at age 83.

Spokeswoman Marni Tomljanovic says Newman died Friday of cancer. No other details were immediately available.

Newman was nominated for Academy Awards 10 times, winning a regular Oscar in 1987 for "The Color of Money" and two honorary ones. He was equally at home in comedies such as "The Sting" and dramas such as "Hud."

He sometimes teamed with his wife, Joanne Woodward, also an Oscar winner for the 1957 film "Three Faces of Eve."

He was a class act no doubt and will sorely be missed. Lets just hope no one up there challenges him to an egg eating contest.
