cookie bear n. obs. original term, pre-sesame-street, for what is now
   universally called a cookie monster. a correspondent observes "in
   those days, hackers were actually getting their yucks from...sit down
   now...andy williams. yes, _that_ andy williams. seems he had a rather
   hip by the standards of the day tv variety show. one of the best parts
   of the show was the recurring `cookie bear' sketch. in these sketches, a
   guy in a bear suit tried all sorts of tricks to get a cookie out of
   williams. the sketches would always end with williams shrieking and i
   don't mean figuratively, `no cookies not now, not ever...never' and
   the bear would fall down. great stuff."
