    Modern Classics

    Yep, I agree. Not to mention the new skit with Oscar teasing Cookie Monster with a letter H cookie. I could totally imagine this as a late 1970s skit with Jim, Richard, and Jerry as the horses, and Frank as Cookie.

    The What Would You Like To Do Someday Thread

    There are two things I'd really like to do. First, I'd like to travel more when I get older. I'd really like to visit California, Florida, Hawaii, or Texas. Going to a European or Asian country would be nice too. Second, I'd like to go to a rock concert. Most of you are familiar with what I...

    What song can you not get out of your head?

    I finally got "Let It Go" stuck in my head. Hey, it was bound to happen sooner or later. On a side note, it was later replaced by Ellie Goulding's "Burn." And then by Pharrell's "Happy" from Despicable Me 2, which I watched last week. I'm really on a pop-music streak.

    The corny joke thread

    Why are rock musicians so mean? They beat the drums and pick on the guitars. How do you get two piccolo players to play in unison? Shoot one. What do you do if your bass player is drowning? Throw him his amp. Did you hear about the drummer who finished college? Me neither. How many...

    Video: Muppets Most Wanted Official US and International Trailers On-line

    I wonder if he would have a speaking role and, if so, which puppeteer would be lucky enough to perform such a legendary and renowned Muppet. ;)

    When you need to rant...

    It's JUST TOO COLD in New York right now. The cold is biting right through my coat, scarf, hat, and gloves. I'm from the area, but seriously it has GOT TO STOP. At least the building where I have my 11:00 class had a huge spread up front with coffee, tea, and bagels, as if to say, "You...

    "Hair is a part of you. It is not part of me because I am a frog." So much for Kermit's hair lecture.

    The “What did you do today?” thread

    I auditioned for a blues-rock band and was hired as the drummer! :halo: We do original songs and covers of 1960s/1970s songs like "House of the Rising Sun," "Wild Thing," and "Oh Darling." I'm very excited for this opportunity. :):excited:

    The Beatles

    Sesame Street also did covers of "Good Morning Starshine" from Hair (the musical) and "Spinning Wheel" by Blood, Sweat and Tears. I saw a half-complete video with full audio on Youtube, but I'm not not sure if it's still up. Let's not forget that SS's versions of Yellow Submarine and...

    You're favorite/ least favorite character designs

    YMBAOMF if... you're crying freely over John Henson's death (I'm pretty close to doing so) you meet a nice girl in a laundromat and immediately think of Gonzo and Camilla from the "Muppets at Walt Disney World" special in an attempt to "share" pizza and grape juice with your friend, you take...

    Remembering John Henson

    Very sad and unexpected news. There are so many beloved Henson associates who left us far too soon: Joe Raposo, Richard Hunt, and now John Henson. But it gives me comfort to know that he is reunited with his parents, Richard, Joe, Jerry Nelson, Jerry Juhl, Don Sahlin, and Jon Stone. My...

    The 'What Song Are You Currently Listening To?' Thread

    Elton John's "Sorry Seems to Be the Hardest Word." Elton's my favorite solo artist other than Billy Joel…I should say they're tied for first in my book.
