Today's post brought to you by the letter i (as in me. as in my birthday) and the number 29 (yes, 29)
 

Who doesn't want to sing Manahmana?
 

In the beginning...
 

The best ever. I've actually got a furry monster at home that sings that song, my sister gave it to me a couple of years ago for v-day.

True story: When I was little my dad brought me to Montreal. I remember this one neighborhood looked a lot like Sesame street, with the high steps up to people's stoops and the clotheslines and stuff. I was SO JAZZED about that. I was convinced for the longest time that Sesame street was in Montreal.

My sister spent half of the day listening to this, so I figure I'd share it with everyone:

Sunday morning with the Yip Yips.
 

True story-the "Manama Na" tune was originally written for a Swedish sex pseudo-documentary. It was also used by British comedian Benny Hill in his skits.

I remember how well the show dealt with the death of Mr. Hooper.

I live in Brooklyn, NY.
Every day I walk through streets that look like the Sesame Street neighborhood, and I half-expect trash cans to produce Oscar, and for Big Bird to walk out of a bodega.
I am so glad I have a magical memory of what a big city could be!

Happy Birthday Sesame Street!!!!!

Thank you for making my childhood awesome :)

I was in the Women's Army Corps 40 years ago.......so I, to this day, have never watched an episode of Sesame Street.

Just think, Sesame Street turns 45 next year! Can hardly believe it's been that long, now. I gave up television some years ago, yet I watch it infrequently when I happen to be visiting with friends, but I'd say some of the best television shows I ever watched were with my boys. I absolutely loved, Sesame Street!

Some of the most memorable skits I remember were skits involving Miss Piggy (Pigs in Space!), the Swedish Chef (I loved the Mexican Lobsters!) and of course, so many other muppet characters too; but I liked the mini-news series anchored by Kermit (News Flash!!!). *lol*

Here's my favorite 'news flash' by Kermit the Frog:

My favoritest thing on Sesame Street was what I NOW know was called the Twiddlebugs lol I remembered it as Deedlebugs...
