Cookie Monster goes insane

Cookie_Monster_mens_shirt_l.jpg
When I was a kid, Cookie Monster was one of the characters in my life who I totally related with. Ernie, Cookie Monster, Oscar the Grouch, and later Aquaman and The Man From Atlantis.
So when I saw the story on CNN.com today about the Cookie Monster moving away from his radical “eat all cookies now” policy, it really hurt. He isn’t running for office, he doesn’t have to appeal to his base, why is he moving from his extremist position?
Okay, actually I’m just being silly. I’m looking forward to the new Sesame Street skits with Mr. Carrot and Mrs. Orange, and how when their juices mingle they create something beautiful.
But if they bring in Tofu Tommy and Timmy Tempeh, it may just be a little over the line.

    For the love of god! What is next…
    Instead of the Electic Company we get “Solar Electric Company”, “I’m sorry kids, we’ve had rain for months so you can’t have your show today because there is nothing to recharge with..” And you Seattle kids, well, you are totally screwed!
    Hmm..actually, I might like that show….
    But if they bring on Betty the Beet to Seasme Street– I’m canceling my Season Pass on Tivo.
