thats from the skit where fat blue is a carnival barker and cookie hits the bell with the sledge hammer.

In no particular order...

20 is from the sketch where Oscar The Grouch and actress Jodie Foster talked about "like". Great "Taxi Driver" reference in this sketch as well...

10 is (I think) the "Sesame Street News-Rapunzel" sketch.

John "manofthestreet" Kilduff...

Dollars to donuts I'll flub one of these.

Um... The Duck Goes Guack: A History Of Bloopers In Litterature??

 

[mikealan]

No, no! The cartoon goes like this:

(Line ending with the word "quack")
It's like a "G" that broke its back!

Remember "Q" because it's queer.
It starts like this and turns up here.
Remember "Q" because it's quaint.
It's like an "A" but then it ain't.
However you remember "Q", hey, I don't care.
But remember "Q",...well,...because it's there!
Q!
