Daily Inspirations 0524

Elmo Almighty / 2012.5.24
Since when can a TV show puppet become more than an entertainment figure?

A couple was caught the other day in Taoyuan for claiming that the famous Sesame icon, Elmo is the descendant of the gods,  and had been using "it" to scam innocent believers for money. The two had by far succeed to fraud over forty million NT dollars.

I must say this is by far one of the most funniest news I've ever heard. Where's Cooking Monster than ?
