Just in case you ever need to quickly find a pool of hardcore Muppet fans, bookmark ToughPigs.com. You may wonder how I found that page. The answer: I cannot tell you. I know I opened Google to find the lyrics to a Beatles song....and ended up there. Weird. And thanks to ToughPigs, may I present...Sesame Radio (although I think neither of us would argue that it is still brought to you by the letter 'M'.) Enjoy.

In the News, Part 1: I can't decide if this is really neat or incredibly frightening. I suppose only tonight's dreams will tell.

In the News, Part 2: Great. Just great. The kid who crashed a Cessna into a Tampa skyscraper yesterday apparently did it in "support of Bin Laden." Hey, kid--how about writing a letter to the editor or something? In case you're in the Madison area and are considering something similarly dramatic, I would like to provide you with the email address for the editors of the Wisconsin State Journal and the Capital Times; howsabout trying those first?

In the News, Part 3: Enjoy a more amusing photo of a crashed plane in Florida.

In the News, Part 4: As a follow up to my earlier mocking of snow-bound Southerners, I would now like to follow it up with similar guffaws pointed in the direction of balmy Greece and Turkey. Ha-HA!
