    The corny joke thread

    In honor of Valentine’s Day, here’s a joke about a husband and wife. Just as they are setting off on a car trip... Wife: Oh, stop the car, quick! I forgot to turn off the electric iron. Husband: It’s all right, dear, nothing will burn. I forgot to turn off the shower.

    Hey, did you hear the joke about the cement floor? Never mind...it’s too hard for you.

    So was Lefty suppose to be a drug dealer spoof?

    Lefty was one of my favorite characters on Sesame Street. I recently found this clip of him. Does anyone have any idea what the English words might be?

    What puns did Harvey Kneeslapper make?

    I did bring back this old thread for a reason. I enjoyed reading it and felt like I had to something to add to it—something that someone else might enjoy reading.

    Kermit/Cookie Monster pledge-drive sketch

    I seem to recall a sketch, from the 197o’s or 1980’s, that was made for a pledge drive. In it, Kermit was telling viewers the prices of various pieces of equipment needed to make Sesame Street happen (such as the cameras). As Kermit talked about each piece, Cookie Monster ate it! :insatiable:

    Comedian Jonathan Winters dies at 87

    Odd. I found myself thinking about Jonathan Winters today. Then, when I got home, I learned of his death when I went to Tough Pigs: http://www.toughpigs.com/jonathan-winters/ RIP Jonathan Winters.

    Favorite Zoot moment?

    I like Rowlf and Zoot performing “Love Story,” mainly because of how teary-eyed Rowlf gets.

    If you were a Muppet Show Guest Star...

    I’d want to do a number with Beauregard. We would dance around the stage, dusting, sweeping, and mopping—all the while singing “Whistle While You Work.” Since I can’t whistle, Beau would have to do that part of the song.

    What did Bert say when he wanted to order oatmeal? “Please, porridge, hot!”

    Favorite Ernie and Bert sketches

    Here’s one that I wish I could find in English: This is Part Two of a two-part sketch. In Part One, Bert holds up a number 4 and asks Ernie if he knows what it is. Ernie says that it’s a chocolate pie. Bert decides to cut to a film about the number 4 so Ernie can get a clue. I think the...

    Dreams about Muppets...

    This wasn’t a dream about a Muppet, but it did relate to Sesame Street. I dreamed that I was interviewing Paul Benedict and that he was saying how much he enjoyed being the painter of all those numbers!

    Funniest Wackiest Zaniest Sesame Sketches

    A wacky sketch I like is where Ernie persuades a reluctant Bert to play “Guess What I Am.” First Ernie pretends to be a dog (even licking Bert’s face!), then waddles and and quacks like a duck. Then it’s Bert’s turn, and he chuffs around the room going, “Chugga chugga, chugga chugga...whoo...

    Your Dream Muppet Collectible

    I, too, would love a music box that plays “Leave Me Some Magic.” I also love wind-up toys, and I wish there were a Beauregard that mops the floor when you wind him!

    Grover on ice

    I remember those segments, too. Bert imagining himself ice skating was one of my favorite memories. Ernie actually helped Bert fall asleep instead of keeping him awake.

    Grover on ice

    I remember a sketch from many years ago, starring Grover and Kermit. As I recall, though, Kermit wasn’t seen at all; I only heard his voice. He said something like this: “And now Grover is going to show us ‘near’ and ‘far’ on his ice skates!” Grover skated close to the camera (or was he...
