Shhh. Wanna buy a letter “O”?
All this talk of the good old days prompted me to investigate Sesame Street further. There’s a pretty good Wiki entry about it, but check out this great character encyclopedia.
Both favorites:
- Shhhhhh. Hey, bud. Wanna buy an invisible ice cream cone?
- I love how the customer at Grover’s restaurant is just called “Fat Blue”:
…and some more favorites:
- Someday I hope to have eyebrows/hair like this guy:
- The first time I witnessed masochism was with Don Music. After that, I had slight fear of composers, and a particularly strong dislike for Randy Newman.
- Let’s not forget this guy, who, I believe, is responsible for The Telephone Rock:
Your favs?

Speaking of muppets, we just picked up the Muppet Show on DVD, first year is out. It’s pretty interesting to look back and see just how wacky and trippy it was, plus it’s got Rita Moreno, a spicy number.

Rita might be spicy but she’s worth 0 stars in Traumfabrik.

SO unfair. Did you know she was the first person to have won a tony, an emmy, an oscar, and a grammy? (Thanks, Muppet DVD text commentary!) And she was in Electric Company. That’s hot.
Knizia, you bastard!
