As someone on YouTube pointed out, Kermit's a lefty just like Hendrix.

And me!!!!

Wonder if that makes me able to play too.

I hope it helps you more than it does me. I'm a lefty, too, and I have absolutely no talent for the guitar.

Here's a Muppet Show "Mahna Mahna"-style skit with Sandra Bullock and Kermit:

Oh no!! As some of you know, I'm a big X-Files fan, and you have no idea how often they say the word "Phenomenon". Guess what song is going to pop into my head now every time I hear that word! Thanks a lot Carol and Savannah.

So sorry, Amy.

There it is...right back in my head again!

My favourite muppet was Grover. When I was 3 I had a book, "The Monster at the End of Tis Book" and I knew it by heart. I fooled lots of people thinking that I could read. For Christmas one year I got a Grover puppet and he went to bed with me every night. I couldn't sleep without him.
Once I started school I was "too old" to watch Sesame Street, or so I thought. On days off from school tho, I enjoyed watching it with my little brother.

That was one of Jeremiah's favorite books, too. He always used to ask me to read it "in Grover's voice". Ah, the memories.

Oh yes......By the time I was finished reading that book, I was hoarse........

Today is the BIG day!!! November 10, 1969, Sesame Street was born!!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY SESAME STREET!!!! Thank you for entertaining my boys' in such an educational way!!!

Now what starts with the letter "C"?
"Cookie" starts with "C"!
Let's think of other things that starts with "C"!
Uh. . .Uh. . . Who cares about da other things?!

(CHORUS)

"C" is for Cookie that's good enough for me,
"C" is for cookie that's good enough for me,
"C" is for cookie that's good enough for me,
Oh! cookie, cookie, cookie starts with "C"!

Hey, You know what? A round cookie with one bite out of it looks like a "C"
A round donut with one bite out of it also looks like a "C" but it is not as good as a cookie
Oh, and the moon sometimes looks like a "C" but you can't eat that
So...

(CHORUS)
Cookie Cookie Cookie Starts with "C"
Cookie Cookie Cookie Starts with "C"


LOL

The announcers on the radio this morning were saying how they didn't grow up on Sesame Street (that they were 'too old')...um, I was like 8 years old and still loving this show! I feel sorry for these people!!

Remember back in the day when Maria & Louis got married? I was in high school, I believe, and I remember the moms of the kids I babysat for planned this big 'wedding party' between their families to celebrate the big day!

Nothing like turning on the opening Sesame Street song and just feeling 'happy' inside, you know?

And how about this one? Gotta LOVE this song! I am reminded of it every time I hear someone sing badly in church. I love this video...it's one from 'my day'!
