Today's blog is brought to you by the letter "R". The Tickle-Me-Elmo was once a beloved childhood toy for one 16 year old boy; but now is filled with sweat, regret, and shame. For this is no tale for children, but what could be the first use of the S.S.P.D. Kevin Clash, the voice and puppeteer for Elmo, has been accused of having sexual relations with a 16 year old boy. This could be a dramatic change to the show "Sesame Street", which is estimated to be worth more than $500 million. Officials state that they are conducting a thorough investigation. It is noted that the accuser did not submit any official evidence. H. Melvin Ming, the president and executive chief of "Sesame Street", called the accusation damaging to the company. He said “There is such a close association to Elmo as being the rock star of preschoolers, so any association with something that is perceived and in reality is behavior not becoming to a puppet will have some difficulty for us... Elmo is Elmo and Kevin is Kevin”.
