    The breakfast cereal thread

    I can't eat Lucky Charms anymore without imagining my teeth dissolving from the sugar! I stick to Special K and Cheerios, mostly, but every Christmas, I gotta have some Fruity Pebbles.

    Worst/creepiest puppets/puppeteer work

    Less that 4 minutes to get your episode of The Bells of Fraggle Rock queued up (if you have it). If you do, at exactly 9:57, hit "Play" and enjoy!

    Eastern Time would be 11:19 to ring your bell. So roughly 40 minutes from now.

    This is gonna be great! If you watch The Bells of Fraggle Rock, start the episode at precisely 9:57 (Central Time) to synchronize the Fraggles ringing their bells with us at 10:19.
