Haha, certainly had some funny moments... though I kind of thought Big Bird was a little wooden tonight, but then again, like Grover years ago, Big Bird mentioned he's not usually allowed to stay up this late.

I did like how Jimmy showed everyone Big Bird's legs in the Google logo today... "Gee, how flattering..." Big Bird said, sarcastically, getting a big laugh.

Missed out on Oscar. Josh talked about how they have their own Sesame in Canada,and being invited to film a scene for MFS. Big Bird came on and there were some funny parts. They talked about Big B's fellow SST friends, the First Ladies he's met, and how Big Bird went as a cowboy for Halloween while Jimmy and the band dressed up as SST characters. Finally, Jimmy gave Big Bird a gift... A necklace saying that the bird was the original Notorious B.I.G.

:zany: :wisdom: :grouchy:

Another thing... Jimmy brought up the Google campaign we've been talking about in the other thread too.

Big Bird, seeing his legs as the L in Google: Oh, how flattering.
Jimmy: We got a sarcastic Big Bird.
