Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I don't have the link, but Cookie Monster is going health food. The PTBs have decided that he needs to eat more veggies to be a good role model.
Umm. Yeah. Do they get that we always knew he was an obviously, glaringly bad nutritional role model? Or are today's kids dumber about that sort of thing? I can't believe it's the latter.
Warning: Scary Michael Douglas picture enclosed.
Warning: Much scarier than usual Michael Douglas picture.
Also, have you ever tried to mash celery in the fabric mouth of a puppet? Celery does not go to crumbs in nearly as charming a fashion as cookies do. If he were to try to eat a carrot, we might end up with a Phineas Gage Monster.
Which would be entertaining! But perhaps not right for Sesame Street.
Cookie Monster story. Bugmenot is your friend.

COOKIE MONSTER IS A COOKIE MONSTER.
Why do they have such a problem with this? Didn't they also make Oscar the Grouch nicer? And Sunffalupagus the invisible friend visible?
Man, they are just fucking up Sesame Street. Don't even get me started on Elmo.

I thought that, too, connie!
What's a good, fairly cheap, but not careless gift?
margarita pitcher, six glasses. cool, fun, easily obtained at Pier 1 or Crate and Barrel.
But there was a Captain Vegetable on Sesame Street, right? Or was that on some other kids' show? I remember the theme song: "It is I, Captain Vegetable, with my carrots and my celery..."
eta: ooh, another good gift suggestion.
