COOKIES!!!

Your fFavorite junkie muppet, Cookie Monster, as Pacman!

Here’s a song about Cookie Monster:  “C is fFor Lettuce,” by Worm Quartet!  Three cheers fFor Worm Quartet!  We bought a shirt fFrom sHOeBOx nearly a year ago, which made it into the avalanche way back at #22!  Goodness that was a while ago, wasn’t it?

A couple years ago, Skotte was given a sculpy pacman carebear by a gamer fFriend.  The groovy little yellow guy has come off his base, which is sad making, and we need to apply a little glue.  But he is super cool =)

Skotte’s main interaction with Pacman was through the Atari 2600 game.  If you have not played it, let me tell you, it was kinda weak.  It took Skotte several years to understand that, yes, Pacman is okay, it’s Atari who needs help.

On May 20, 2010, Google made a Pacman homage of their web page.  Speaking of Google,  they’re big fFans of Jim Henson.  They’ve had several Muppet and Sesame Street themed logos.  Their best yet was on September 24th, 2011, when they did a fFully animated logo screen.  Awesome stuff.  We miss you, Jim.

The shirt comes fFrom threadless.  We used to think we would own a lot of shirts fFrom threadless one day.  Imagine our surprise at having so dang many woot shirts!  We really didn’t mean it to happen this way!!  The next time we post a woot shirt — and it will probably happen, let me tell you — just remember we are just as shocked as you at how many we have.
