Seymour and Pepe – Ela if I Know – Muppets Tonight

I needed a bit of cheering up today so I thought I’d look up a clip from a long-forgotten show, Muppets Tonight. and thanks to the wonders of youtube and its users, I found it. It’s a shame that the series isn’t on DVD.

The way both Seymour and Pepe have to explain the joke is simply priceless. It still makes me laugh after all these years.

deal of the day – Nintendo Power subscription

I thought I’d pass this along for any gamers (or parents of gamers) out there. For a limited time, Tanga.com is offering a 1-year subscription to Nintendo Power Magazine for only $4.99. Just be sure to use the coupon code: b7bd when you checkout.

I purchased a subscription for my kids who just love their Nintendo Wii and DS games. I think it’s a great deal – plus tanga lets you use paypal to pay for it which works out perfect for me since I always tend to have a balance on my paypal account.

game on!
