Tommyrot in Natter regarding what ever happened to Grover on Sesame Street:
No drug or alcohol addictions - I think he just got burned out and cynical. Now he's a clerk in a video rental place that specializes in independent movies.
eta: Sometimes he protests agains neighborhood gentrification, but mostly he keeps to himself.
erikaj:
Don't know if this counts as game, but rarely did a week go by where our fridge didn't have Han Solo serving time in it.

Where the dragonriders live. You know, Pern.

ita, on Mile High Atlanta:
Good evening. This is your pilot Prince speaking.
U r flying aboard the Seduction 747
And this plane is fully equipped with anything your body desires
If 4 any reason there is a loss in cabin pressure
I will automatically drop down 2 apply more
2 activate the flow of excitement
Extinguish all clothing materials and pull my body close 2 yours
Place my lips over your mouth, and kiss, kiss, normally
In the event there is overexcitement
Your seat cushion may be used as a flotation device
We ask that U please observe the "No Letting Go" sign
I anticipate a few turbulence along the way
We r now making our final approach 2 Satisfaction
Please bring your lips, your arms, your hips
Into the upright and locked position
4 landing -- Can U feel it? Can U feel it?
yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Welcome 2 Satisfaction
Please remain awake until the aircraft has come 2 a complete stop
Thank U 4 flying Prince International
Remember, next time U fly, fly the International Lover
