sesame street generation



i love you tube. at times when i'm feeling nostalgic, or longing for my youth, i watch classic sesame street clips there. julie, jill, and i were products of sesame street. we watched it in the morning, at noon during lunch, and again in the afternoon. i think i appreciate the humor and wisdom of it more now as an adult, though.

i loved anytime john-john (above) was on the show. this rapunzel skit from the fourth sesaon is also one of my favorites (rapunzel with a brooklyn accent ~ hysterical):



here's poor grover, of course, as the incompetent waiter (also from the fourth season):



and do any of you remember "mahna mahna"? for years, i thought he was saying "phenomenon".



jim henson was a genius, wouldn't you agree? talk about a man who used his gifts to make the world a better place. wow.

oh, and by the way, did you realize that there is a wikipedia for muppets? seriously, it's called Muppet Wiki. if you're in to sesame street or the muppet show, it's kinda cool.

enjoy the videos.
