Rubber Ducky, you're the one!

It's not that I intend to give equal time to all Muppets (although I can, if you wish), but Ernie sprang (?) to mind last night.

I don't know what mailing list I'm on now, but I received a catalog last night, which is full of cheap, plastic-y gewgaws intended as giveaways for kids. For amusement, I flipped through the pages, and I was astounded by how many versions of rubber ducks there are now. Here's a link to that page of the online catalog -- for 76 styles of rubber ducky. Can you imagine someone being paid to design new molds of rubber duckies? "Hmm, I think I'll try an Elvis one next."

For the record, Grover is my favorite.

My favourite are the ones with LED lights inside. When you put your finger on the metal dots on the bottom of them they blink and glow for a few minutes. I got a few for my niece, but she didn't care for them....so now they are mine.
Bwaha!

I still want the Doctor Who duck.

And, for the record, my favorite Muppet is Oscar the Grouch (although Grover is also cool). Unless the Muppets on Farscape count...
