    Peter Jennings Has Lung Cancer

    Knew a woman who died of lung cancer this past March at age 58. She was getting chemo therapy also , like Peter Jennings. And like Peter she was a smoker. Very sad. My prayers and best wishes are with him.

    Paul Benedict

    I haven't seen the number painter since the good ol' 70's days. Let me rack my brain and see how many of the eleven I can recall. Should be a jolly ol' time as Mr. Bently would say! Number 1: Drawing a total blank ( no pun intended). Perhaps they started with the number 2? Number 2: I am...

    2 hands and a piece of chocolate cake

    Yes I well remember this one. I liked the music that accompanies this throughout. That's one of many special things to me about early 70's SS - the music was often so catchy and fun to listen to. Whenever I would watch SS in the 90's or this decade and they would play an old clip, the neat music...

    Favorite Bert and Ernie Sketch

    And that reminds me that were also two versions of the Ernie counting to ten skit! One had Bert banging his head on a table 4 times, as I mentioned earlier. The other cut the scene as soon as Bert's head touches the table the first time. Perhaps the reason was likewise because they felt the...

    Grover on "Jimmy Kimmel Live" this Monday

    Yes I also taped it last night and watched it late this afternoon. A very fun interview. Liked how Grover defended Oscar and Cookie Monster when Kimmel digged at them a bit. Way to show great SS camaraderie Grover! Also nice that he said Kermit was probably his closest friend of all the many...

    David and Maria sketch

    Thanks Mike. The bridge one with David and Maria was enjoyable too. There's one segment with David and Maria I recall seeing as a child that probably was only one show because it was one of those scenes that took place on Sesame Street (between the muppet, film, and animation skits). I think it...

    Looking for a little advice

    Yes I would agree with everyone here that the best thing you can do is pray about this and to pursue what's really in your heart. Since you have really loved this church all your life, I'm sure there are a lot of wonderful people there and that they would be very understanding and supportive of...

    David and Maria sketch

    Here's a classic sketch with David and Maria I liked. They are in a restaurant and both order a bowl of spaghetti. Maria gobbles hers down real quickly. An unseen voice narrator says, " Short time." Then David starts eating his spaghetti one noodle at a time! The narrator says, "Long time." A...

    What sketches scared you as a kid?

    Yeah Sesame Mike, I recall the "land ho" animated segment and the skit where Ernie says he'll tear that fish fin from fin. Those bring to mind a few others that were a little on the bizarre side. Remember a 3 part sketch where David and Maria are about to be married by a minister (played by Bob...

    Favorite Bert and Ernie Sketch

    There are SO MANY favorite Ernie and Bert skits. Hard to say with certainty what my one favorite one is. But one that is definitely WAY up there is the one where Ernie counts to ten and keeps starting over again at the slightest distraction. This skit just gets funnier and funnier as it goes...

    Lefty the Salesman

    Remember this Lefty the Salesman skit? I also loved the skits with Lefty trying to sell things to Ernie. The invisible ice cream cone was HILARIOUS! (Lefty: How'd you like to buy an invisible ice cream cone?" Ernie: I don't see any invisible ice cream cone.") (And of course Ernie fretting to...
