Easy way to block Google Doodles?

Google seems to have taken a cue from Frannie Forwarder—from the occasional neat, commemorative Google Doodles to a steady stream of glurgey bullshit that I have no use for (they’re all over my lawn). When there’s an interesting interactive Doodle, there are plenty of places that fawn over them and I’ll seek one out on an alternate browser (e.g. I.E.). But for now, given Google’s proclivity to go all MySpace/Tripod with their pages, I’d like to find a way to get rid of it. Can Adblock help with this? Is there a way for NoScript to kill it without losing other functionality? White Out?
