Tell me what I'm missing here, please.

Cheap stuffed puppet: $10.00

Fake dentures from gag shop: $5.00

Toothbrush: $1.00

Total cost of teaching device: $16.00, max. And that's paying retail!

So why does Freddy Flossisaurus cost $316.00 at this medical-supply site!?!

Curfew Breakers, or, Hooked

If you decide, after viewing the CURFEW BREAKERS clip, to rent this film, you'll have to look for it on DVD under its alternate title, HOOKED. It's a glorious mess, but not quite as outrageously stupid or weird as some of its ilk.

Weird Korean Posters

As mentioned previously, my nephew Rey is teaching young students in South Korea. Here're two oddball posters he photographed. I can only assume that they are warning youngsters about the dangers of the internet.

Live and Let Live

Continuing our series of weird auto-safety films, we now examine one told completely through the medium of toys. This looks like it was a lot of fun for the creators to make.
