I remember the very first Sesame episode, watching on my parents' old black and white tv. Like millions of other kids after me, the Street was a special place to be, and Caroll had a huge part in making it that way. Over the years I was blessed to meet a number of Sesame people, including...

There are still people out there who live in the wilderness and live off the land, hunting and fishing for everything they eat. It's a throwback to the pioneer days. Possums, squirrels, snakes, weasels, just about anything can get thrown in a pot and made into stew. I still draw the line at...

What's strange is some people keep skunks as pets. They have the scent glands removed, and think everything is fine. Some people also keep raccoons. They think they're so tame and cute and eat out of your hands. That's all very nice, but they're still wild animals. No matter how much you try to...

Today I was in CVS getting my pills, and up the aisle comes... a SKUNK! He made a beeline right towards me, and starts picking at my shoelaces. I didn't get sprayed or bit (skunks are worse than raccoons with rabies). I've seen skunks before- they have that telltale wobble- but never this...

Another factor that's holding Biden back, after eight years of being Obama's running mate, Obama has not given him any support. However, Biden was aligned to be the most moderate of all Democrats. Whoever Obama endorses will have an edge. Whether it's enough to defeat Trump is anybody's guess.

Got our tree up today. Our old tree, the branches were worn out and has seen better days. Our new one is pre-lit, and fit in the corner just right. Got quite a few Disney, Looney Tunes, Muppet, and Sesame ornaments. One is Big Bird with a bass drum celebrating 30 years of Sesame Street. Who knew...

You don't have to put up with anything. If Taylor Swift comes on, you can change the station or turn it off. Life is not meant to be complicated.

I understand nature. Little animals eat plants, big animals eat little animals. I get it. My friend used to have a python. He fed the snake pinky rats. He would put the rats in, close the cage, and be done with it. It wouldn't occur to him to film it and post it on YouTube. The snake got bigger...

I give you points for trying. There are so many variations on pecan pie. The basic filling is just butter, eggs,milk, and sugar (or corn syrup). These ingredients you need, but you can also add molasses, chocolate, or coconut. You'd appreciate this. In Canada, a big dessert is butter tarts...

I know how you feel. Once upon a time I stumbled on these videos of snakes eating live rabbits. Yes, it's nature, and in the wild rabbits get eaten by snakes, hawks, dogs, and many other animals. But these people glorify violence and love to see the rabbit scream, struggle, and ultimately die...

There's a sandwich shop near me that makes a Thanksgiving sandwich every day of the year.Turkey, mashed potatoes, stuffing, cranberries, and gravy on a bun. Sweet potato casserole is great, so is green bean casserole. Pumpkin pie is good, but pecan pie is even better. Plenty of turkey...

All the tryptophan in the turkey should give you a nice nap. No need to pig out. I've been around for 51 Thanksgivings, and never had one where there weren't leftovers. Even with twenty people or more.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone. Please, between the turkey, family, and football, remember what you're thankful for.In spite of hassles, frustration , and such, there are plenty of blessings to be found. Peace on all of you- Brian the Fuzzy One.

It's news to me, too.

It's news to me, too.

They have to unload these bears somehow. Way back in the 80s there was this thing called "Bondage Bear" that came with little whips and chains. Dressed in a little G-string. Somebody thought they'd make a million bucks with them.

My wife says the same thing sometimes. 8)

50 years ago today my Mom sat me in front of our big RCA console tv. Channel 13 was showingthis new thing called Sesame Street. Couldn't even see it in color. But this, and another show called Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood, started me on my way. Hard to believe some thought Sesame wouldn't last more...

I like the New Tens with figs in them.

There's an Italian place a block from me. Pizza is okay, but here is my choice. Start with a bowl of pasta faglioli soup. Little dish of olive oil to dip bread in. Chicken piccata over rice. It's chicken in a sauce of lemon, butter, and white wine. Topped with sun dried tomatoes and capers...
