I almost forgot about this thread. Now school's out, I hope your summer is (stand back, here comes a word we used in ancient times)... Groovy.

That's going way back to 1973-74 at the latest, when Oscar had the brown trunk next to his can as opposed to the big wooden crate. Not a lot of room for Caroll to move around, is there? I don't know who gets the bigger kick- someone like me who hasn't seen this in 40 years, or you young...

I'm not sure exactly what date it was. I was only five at the time and remembered Hal Miller was out, Roscoe Orman was in. It was the era of Rotating Gordons. I've never been good at remembering exact dates, but I'm sure someone has it filed away all neat and tidy. On youtube in the Comments...

I'm reading. I got a lot to catch up on. Just got back from a very relaxing trip down to the Amish country in Lancaster, PA

Wishing you a happy birthday.... And no chant!:)

Do you take Vitamin D? That boosts seritonin which makes you feel happier and could take the edge off depression.

Somewhere around Season Five, when Roscoe Orman was the New Gordon on the Block. It ended with Bird asleep in his nest, and the credits rolled.

Rocky VIII: What Did Ya Ever Do For Paulie?

I don't remember that particular scene, but it was consistent with how the writers were portraying Big Bird at the time. One incident I DO remember from back then: one time everybody was going to take a trip to the beach, Big Bird included. So Susan and Gordon tell him to get a good night's...

Telling your dad you hate him will not make him inclined to buy you anything. If there's any way the two of you can talk... calmly... without resorting to name-calling... and...maybe...even...APOLOGIZE... that might go a long way to healing hurt feelings, and maybe, maybe, MAYBE you might get a...

The only way to conquer her fears is to face up to them, not avoiding them. She should realize she'll be a safe distance from the whales, and the probabilities of anything dangerous happening are very low. In the highly unlikely event Shamu does jump out of the tank, land in the stands and eat...

Time to get an industrial-strength bug zapper, plug it in, and watch the sparks fly!

Since I can't jump on the "I'm Baaaaaaaaaaaaack!" bandwagon, this is the next best thing. :)

Sometimes things happen to you beyond your control you feel overwhelmed. Other times (probably not as often) you expect something big to happen, that doesn't, and you feel underwhelmed. Have you ever been whelmed just right?

For those of you still in school: If you cut class (because you don't want to be in school), and you get suspended for cutting class (forcing you not to be in school), WHAT'S THE FRIGGIN' POINT???!!!!!!!

Nestor the Long-Eared Christmas Donkey. If you're the least bit sensitive, you won't make it through without crying. One scene in particular will break your heart. Still has a happy ending, but you'll go through several boxes of Kleenex before you're done.

I was 22 when he died, a week before my college graduation. I grew up watching Sesame Street, TMS, and Fraggle Rock when they were all brand-new. But his death made me feel all that happiness he gave, all the love he created, all the trappings of childhood- you gotta give it all up and grow up...

I loved his tone so much, when I was 16 I got a Gibson ES-335 just to sound like him. "The Thrill Is Gone" always sent chills down my spine. Now he and Stevie Ray Vaughn can have duets in Heaven. Dear sweet man.

Losing twenty pounds seems no easier than losing a hundred. The extra twenty on me has been bothering me for four years and same as you, no diet, no exercise has helped. Maybe it partially comes with age, but I've got a noticeable pot belly on me and I can't even blame it on beer. But I still...

Society also puts pressure on people to look thin. Every diet claims to be THE one to lose weight. Shaun T. promises you'll lose a pound a day in two months ("SAY WHAAAAAATTTTTT????!!!!"). I feel for you. I feel bad weighing 180, and wanting to get rid of 20 pounds around my waist (my...
