Elmo, Thankfully, Goes Missing
Walmart has declared missing a shipment of 100 Elmo T.M.X. dolls. The annoying-as-fuck toys went missing en route to a Walmart location in Bentonville, AR.
""We're continuing the search for them," she said. Wal-Mart is also offering a trip to a comedy club in New York City as a reward for returning the shipment."
Comedy club? For hijacking a truck? Hmmm, it's tempting to suspect foulplay, but we smell PR stunt. Is it illegal to steal your own shipment of Elmos and sell them on Ebay? Only if you report it as a crime...
From CNN:
"However, officials at the Bentonville police department told CNNMoney.com that they were not currently aware of any missing Elmo report from Wal-Mart."
This is a test using rich text formatting and html links. It's the generic "company" ad that should appear on all posts with the Company category if they don't have an ad attached to a specific company.

A trip to an NYC comedy club? For reals? Wal-Mart is really value oriented. You can't walk 8 steps in Times Square without being offered free admission to some sucky comedy club.
That's it. I officially can't sleep knowing those giggling bastards are unaccounted for. THEY CAN SMELL FEAR.
Why does this remind me of the warehouse-full-of-Barbies-that-burned-so-they-could-charge-more-$$$ of 10 years ago? I think they were those damm Christmas Barbies....
AK is Alaska...AR is for Arkansas.
So Elmo is heading toward the north pole; that crafy bastard.
Don't worry everyone, I'm sure they have Bert and Ernie chasing them down.
Clearly a publicity stunt. Stop feeding the Elmo-mania, people. It's just a stupid toy.
