I think it was The Muffin Man. Do you know him?

Nemo is a cartoon fish with eyebrows...so kids, don't flush your cartoon fish

The muffin man.

Oh, do you know the muffin man,
The muffin man, the muffin man,
Oh, do you know the muffin man,
That lives on Drury Lane?
Oh, yes, I know the muffin man,
The muffin man , the muffin man,
Oh, yes, I know the muffin man,
That lives on Drury Lane.
And you know what's really funny? It turns out The Muffin Man was actually a candy man; pretty sick, even for children's rhymes.

What was this blog originally about? Toilets or something?
Jim|6.6.03 @ 3:00AM|#
Another childhood myth destroyed! Is there no innocence left in the world? Next someone is going to tell me Lemmings don't really commit mass suicide....
:-)

Lemmings do commit mass suicide. But you have to make them listen to Judas Priest first...

Awww...poor Jim...

Thanks, Jay D, but that was kind of a backhanded joke aimed at someone who put the same link on another post. Seen it already.

dammit, there goes my weekend...

Sorry, Jim...I'm esoterically challenged.
:-D

Glad we could be of service. We're here to burst bubbles, deflate fantasies, haul you back down to reality, and remind you that you're big boys and girls now. We're sure you can handle it.
bomb bomb|6.6.03 @ 5:20AM|#
I am sure that Jay D can handle it, but I can't. It is just too much for my little lemming hating brain.

Well that was just mean, wasn't it?
"Kids, there is NO WAY that fish would have lived. It almost certainly would have been ground into tiny bits. And just in case you hope beyond hope it could miraculously survive the grinding up, we use deadly chemicals that would finish the job. So there."

Now I'm gonna cry.

"Muffin Monster"? Holy crap, who came up with that name?
Lefty|6.7.03 @ 11:59AM|#
I was at a corrections industry trade show a few years ago. Muffin Monster makes a grinder that goes in prison plumbing systems. I watched a beer can filled with concrete get chewed into sand. That thing was awesome.
Russ|6.9.03 @ 11:41AM|#
Aren't almost all fish flushed down the toilet DEAD anyway? How many kids flush their live fish? Heck, when my goldfish was alive and I didn't want it anymore, I'd let him go in the Calumet River (where it was bound to die in seconds anyway).
Fritz|6.11.03 @ 6:50AM|#
As a proud member of team "Muffin Monster" (JWC Environmental), we are just loving all this free publicity! And someone actually saw the machine at a correctional show! Yes, we can grind beer cans filled with anything, 2x4s, you name it. We really felt we had to straighten Disney's distortion of the facts out!
