I was wondering if you could help me with this.
I have been trying to think of the name of an old tv show i used to watch when i was little.Cant quite remember whether it was nickelodeon or the den or what?.
It was about a group of kitchen objects that came to life every morning when the humans when out to work.
They all lived on the dresser i the kitchen.The salt and pepper were married to each other and Mrs.Bag , the grumpy tea pot lived on the top shelf.
Also, there was a mischievous mouse that lived behind the plate that he slid across to get to the dresser and caused trouble for all the others.
Also i remember a cuckoo clock on the wall that would chime and everyone would go back to their places before the humans came home.
Its been wrecking my head trying to think of the name of this show and i would really appreciate if you could help me or ask somebody...

There is this professor I know at my college who helped me out a lot through college and was above all a great teacher who I wanted to give a gift to because I felt I owed him some token of gratitude for all the help that he gave me. I mean, the professor really did not have to go out of his way to help, but he did, hence the consideration.
I was going to be visiting relatives in Germany soon, and I was thinking I might buy a cuckoo clock for the prof from someone who knows my father well, which means it wont be terribly expensive. But I am worried that this might be something that could get me in trouble because I still might need to ask the professor for references. I am also worried it might start rumors (i.e of bribery) and could actually cause problems for the professor. So, is it generally considered OK for students to give gifts like this or am I better of just leaving a small thank you card or just writing to him to thank him ?
Just to emphasize one thing:
He is NOT teaching any of my classes anymore, so its not about passing courses

Here's another
The other night I was invited out for a night with "the girls." I
told my husband that I would be home by midnight, "I promise." Well, the hours passed and the margaritas went down way too easy. Around 3:00 a.m., a bit loaded, I headed for home. Just as I got in the door, the cuckoo clock in the hall started up and cuckooed 3 times.
Quickly, realizing my husband would wake up, I cuckooed another 9 times. I was really proud of myself for coming up with such a quick-witted solution, in order to escape a possible conflict with him. (Even when totally smashed.....3 cuckoos plus 9 cuckoos totals 12 cuckoos = midnight.)
The next morning my husband asked me what time I got in and I said "midnight." He didn't seem upset at all.
Whew! Got away with that one!
Then he said, "We need a new cuckoo clock."
When I asked him why, he said, "Well, last night our clock
cuckooed 3 times, then said, "Oh sh*t", cuckooed 4 more times, tripped over the coffee table and farted"
No it didn't happen to me! I got it in an email.

It has singing birds coming out of a cuckoo clock. There is a man trying to stop them, but does not succeed. They are singing diddly dums. And the song also appears on a popular diaper brand commercial.
And now begin guessing!

Hello Everyone,
I lived for 11 years in Georgia and moved 5 years ago back to Germany. In two weeks I will attend a wedding of a friend of mine in Michigan. The couple is around 25 and I like to buy them something typical German for the wedding gift. Since they are still young, I don´t want them to a cuckoo clock, a stein or something like it. And since don´t want to spend more like 250 Euro or so, I can´t afford to get them a nice German automobile
Since I live in the town which produced originally all the Zeppelins including the Hindenburg
…I thought I get something towards this direction, but I am not sure what.
Do you guys have an idea of what would be a real cool gift for them?
Thanks for all the help!!!
Oliver

get paid more if you don't sweat?
"that's the spirit"
it's not the economy
it's a different world now
no more ice caps
nunchucks shoot lasers
twin boys in a bikini
twilight of Tweety Bird...why
did a woman frown at Zsa Zsa
women are stupid
people who like kiddie porn
also like Agent Orange
terrified of cat sand...
relatively solid tracks derailed...
pointless
don't waste your time
everything just got out of prison
and like me can sit in a chair
when at the cuckoo clock factory
the machine harvester doesn't discriminate
but just dragged him around screaming.

I am an apprentice carpenter. Yesterday at work I smashed myself in the eye with a claw hammer while making a cuckoo clock. It might have been because I was using my less preferred left arm (I cut my right arm off with a bandsaw last week while joking around with my drunk mates). Or it could have been because I was trying to look down the top of the only girl in my workshop. She said she doesn't date one-armed men wearing eye patches. Is she playing hard to get?
Dave K, you're proof reading all my stories from now on.

Blond & brunette have a wager whether this guy on TV will jump to his death or not. Guy jumps, brunette wins and blond pays . Brunette says, "I have to confess I saw this on the 6 oclock news tonight- so to be fair, I have to return your "
"I saw it too" said the blond giving the back
"I certainly didn't think he'd jump again!"
3 salesmen argue over who's the best salesman.
I sold a stereo to a deaf man says the first
I sold a TV to a blind man says the second
I sold a cuckoo clock to a blond woman says the third
So? says the first and second salesmen
"And 100 lbs of bird seed"
Blond on a riverbank hollers over to another blond on opposite shore "How do I get to the other side?"
The answer comes back..."You are on the other side"
A blond catches her husband having sex with another woman.
She pulls a gun from her purse and points it at her own head.
"Honey don't" shouts the alarmed husband
"Shut up! You're next!" says his wife.

I am noticing more and more poetry lurking around our Yahoo! Answers Village of late. Some of this poetry seems very lofty and, I don't know, maybe takes itself too seriously. As if stating how one feels or making observations about life and the world, the universe, cannot be done in a simple and straightforward way. So, I think it's time for some light verse. Or, the extreme form of light verse, which is: PREPOSTEROUSLY SILLY POETRY. Anyone want to try? I'm sure I'll be coming up with several entries of my own in the next few days. We're going to have record setting heat in New York this weekend (for the first week of May)--so watch out for some truly over the top, cuckoo clock verse.
I'm not buying who you say you are:
a Loch Ness Monster from Zanzibar--
please put on some shoes and hop in my car,
I'd like to see how go we can far.
What say, we stop by my old high school diner?
(I'm having a flashback of pie-eyed Sue Weiner!)
We can order some buttered up French Toast and juice,
and relive the days of Doctors Kildare and Seuss.
Good one, Joanne. Clever. You're on the right track. But I'm looking for even more preposterous, maybe. I cannot believe only 3 people answered! I'm holding out for at least a dozen answsers! And that is probably a preposterous expectation....but FOLKS, COME ON, TELL YOUR POET PALS ABOUT THIS QUESTION, or I'm going to have to create a new marketing department here! Let's loosen up & have a little fun!
