    Classic Sesame Clips on YouTube

    I had another thought about that "Ernie making noise at the movies" sketch. Could it have been an intention of the makers to teach children that sometimes life can be unfair? Here's Ernie making all the noise and Bert ends up paying the price for it by being ejected. Perhaps would help children...

    Oy vey

    I'll be at work tomorrow afternoon so I'll try to remember to say a prayer for you then, Kathy. And is this something different from an ingrown toe nail? I've heard those can be painful too. I'm glad I've never had one but one time on a lesser scale my right big toe nail split while I was at a...

    How's the weather where you are?

    Been getting colder lately and very windy (I heard yesterday some in the north east USA REALLY got severe damaging winds. Hope everyone here at the forum was okay). But today is nice. Sunny, 63, but still rather windy. Tomorrow they're forecasting 71! I was hoping we'd see at least one more of...

    Nfl 2006

    I'm afraid we can't say 15-1, 16-0, teheheman. Since they are now 4-3. But they've been playing tough teams. Yesterday's game was a close one with Atlanta. They just fell short 29-27. And Muppets Rule, the Pack wins again! I thought they would beat the Cardinals. That's a team that never seems...

    Baseball 2006

    No subway series, too bad. Give those Tigers a lot of credit for a fantastic season and for defeating the talent laden Yankees. And congratulations to the St. Louis Cardinal fans. They barely made the playoffs with a 83-78 record. But they sure put it all together in the post season. Despite...

    SS question on game show today

    I just turned on "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire" and they had a $25,000 question asking what the full name of The Count is on "Sesame Street"! For us MC folks that's more like a $100 question! But I guess it's a toughie for the genreal public. The woman contestant used the 50/50 lifeline and it...

    Classic Sesame Clips on YouTube

    These great classic clips just keep on coming on youtube! Some of the newest old ones (newest old, heh heh) that I was real happy to see again are: - - - The S for Superman 1970 animated segment. - - - The J friends song. J Joe wearin' jeans, got himself a pocket full of jellybeans, J...

    Old School Sesame DVD Amazon Sales Rank

    Shucks, now it slipped to #81. I wonder if that means it's likely 43 will be its peak.

    Your Thoughts: Sesame Street Old School DVD

    My copy won't reach me until another 3 or 4 weeks. I pre-ordered it with TEC season 2 from Amazon and opted to have them delivered together in November (when TEC 2 comes out) to save on shipping. Now I'm paying the price of waiting an extra month or so, though! It'll be great when I get them and...

    Ernie and Lefty...

    heh heh heh (:grouchy: laugh), thanks! And isn't it funny how Lefty zeroed in on Ernie for attempted sales because Ernie isn't as bright as others like Bert and Kermit, but on "Green Acres" Mr. Haney (the "Lefty" of that show!) spent so much time trying to sell his junk to Oliver, the most...

    Mother in City hospital

    I'll continue to pray for her too, Marty. And thanks for saying a prayer for me recently, as well as when you prayed for one of my family before. Prayers sure are effective and powerful (James 5:16). All because of WHO they are directed to.

    Any Green Acres fans here?

    Thanks BEAR, that's cool and that touched me. :) And the other show is "The Beverly Hillbillies".

    I've Got a Problem

    Can't win if you don't play, but almost certainly won't win if you do play and almost certainly will have less than if you don't play. I never play it at all but I agree there is a big difference between playing once in a blue moon for fun and having a frequent compulsion to buy a lot of...

    A little friendship advice?

    That is so wonderful to hear, Beth! Thanks for sharing that update. So glad it went so well. I figured she would be understanding and receptive since she's such a good and lifelong friend, and since any friend of yours must be something special. And it shows once again the importance of open...

    Where Are You (Originally) From?

    How would you respond?

    Oooh yeah I sure know how awful people can be on the road! That's why I'm so happy to have gotten a job a mile away from me (and for saving $ on gas, as well all the time saved from long commutes). Today on the way home from work, however, I had a little funny thing ensue. It only takes about...

    Ernie and Lefty...

    And also Grover was sometimes a salesman himself to that blue guy and to Kermit. :) Cookie Monster would probably have been a good one for Lefty to sell to (since he can be a little naive at times) but the problem would be that little would interest CM unless it's something to eat (remember on...

    Where Are You (Originally) From?

    SO you wanted to get far away from me, eh Sgt. Floyd? heh heh I'm originally from California (but moved when I was a baby), then moved to Maryland, then to New York and then to Philly, PA (where I probably will be the rest of my earth life because I have a house).

    Happy Birthday Effralyo!!

    Glark! Happy belated bday to you, Effy! I'll be twice your age next March (but still have 5 more months to enjoy my youthful 30's!) Congrats on your number 20!

    How would you respond?

    My reaction exactly, D'Snowth! Thanks Vic, that was both very helpful and very funny. I guess some snide remarks (unlike flat out hostile replies) are more effective and also safer for not risking your job (as well as being so well deserved by the el jerkos!) (and as well as being so fun to...
