I have always loved Cookie Monster. Him and the Count were my two favorite characters on Sesame Street. I didn't care that he promoted bad manners and displayed OCD type behavior regarding cookies. That just made him all the more endearing to me, you know?
I found this today and I just loved it. Thought I'd share it with you all. Click on the link to see the video.
Cookie Monster comes to NPR.
I know, my last two posts have been videos and of little content and substance. I'll change that soon.
All in due time.
Thanks for stopping by.
Grape.

wombie: Ha! I know! He couldn't wait to spill the dirty word! :) Another reason to love him, I'd say.
ginger: The Count is cool. He displays OCD type behavior in regards to counting, too. It's these little psychological quirks that make them seem.... Almost real....
I like Big Bird, too. I'll bet he's tasty roasted over a spit. Mmmm...... :)
no7: Look! Up in the sky! Now only if he can stick the landing...
moonie: Thanks for the welcome. Miss piggy's cool. Like you say, edible. :) As far as Muppet characters are concerned, I think I have to put a vote in for Statler and Waldorf. The two old grumpy Muppets on the balcony. They're great!

Hello Grape = ),
just dropping by to say, I have missed you and I am glad you are here. . ."visible" and "invincible".
I shared the vid with a friend and we had a laugh. Sesame Street is part of my childhood memories. I love all the characters but I identify mostly with Big Bird, Kermit and Bert. . .although my secret wish is to be Ernie XD !

PBW: Still remember the cookie(My new favorite word, btw). :)
This doesn't really explain my long absence, but it seemed fitting somehow.
Don't know about being invincible... I've been feeling a bit fragile as of late. Good to know there's someone out there that thinks otherwise. :)
The little 'un doing well? I think of you and yours often, whenever I see a comment left by you.
All my best,
grape.
