Diegos recalled!!!

This just in...

WASHINGTON (AP) -- Toy-maker Fisher-Price is recalling 83 types of toys -- including the popular Big Bird, Elmo, Dora and Diego characters -- because their paint contains excessive amounts of lead.


I knew there was something strange about those guys.

I'd chime in, but perpetuating a thread about the Diegos might get me arrested.
