I'm not going to disclose what else I found when I was searching for this website but I was searching for a "peep webcam": Click at Your Own Risk!

Have a happy Easter!

They have a peep diorama contest every year. See winners there.

Gigi-

Here's a link to the Twin Cities Peep show: Click here for website!

It's an awesome creative effort. I especially like the Gulliver layout.

Cheerily,

There have been far better years for the contest, but it's always a hoot, with at least one or two great dioramas.

Libraries have been teaching Peeps the skills necessary for the Information Age for some time.

Rapaire-

Interesting link as well.

I was shocked at some of the inappropriate behavior exhibited by some peeps within the library. I was also saddened by the demise of the peeps cruelly crushed by the lid of the photocopy machine; I hope a safety feature has been added.

They knew the risks, Charley. Just like anyone trying to photocopy that part of their anatomy, they knew the risks.

Well, there was a quality response to this thread if not a quantity response.

I had a lot of fun hiding the peeps on Easter day. One was in my wife's sugar bowl, one under a Kleenex on her mouse pad, and one under her hat. All were eventually found during her process of routine activities. However, my wife's comment was that "Splanda Peeps" were an entirely different species than regular sugar peeps. I have to admit that she was correct; the sugar ones are much softer.

"Splanda Peeps"   Did you mean "Splenda"? Do they make sugarless peeps? you mean I can eat peeps again?

RangerSteve-

Yah, Spenda Peeps but they're really tough little buggers. Tasty though!

Are marshmallow "rabbits" also considered "peeps." They also appear to be a different species.

I love that little library peeps page. I'm glad they've left it up. The librarian scolding the peeps looks very much like the associate director of our library. :)

(Today I did her a favor, but the kind that is a little frustrating for the recipient. She called me into her office and pointed at this little text box that had disengaged itself from her Outlook email. It was sitting off to the right and at the top of the screen. She couldn't get it to go back in line and kept hitting the wrong buttons that were now where the old walkabout buttons used to be. "Can you put that back?" I clicked her mouse on the blue bar and dragged it about 3/4 inch and it popped into the line where it should be. It was one of those things that if you don't know about dragging by the blue bar it will drive you nuts, and as I left the room she said "you don't want to know how much time I wasted trying to do that. . . ")

The answer, of course, is that Bill Gates knows, in his heart of hearts, that solving problems keeps our brains young and fends off Alzheimer's, so he designed Windows this way on purpose. Scolding peeps may also help fend off Alzheimer's.

So far I haven't run into any images of peeps attired as tiny nuns. Sinsull does have a song party coming up this weekend!
