When I was little I made my dad search everywhere in the little town we were from in Newfoundland for watermelon for a picnic...when we got to the picnic I announced that I didn't like watermelon but Ernie and Bert always said it wasn't a picnic without watermelon...so I figured so had to have watermelon.

In addition, when I was young there were always 2 or 3 french kids on sesame street but no adult who was french...just one guy who was English but could also speak french...and when my mom was pregnant with my brother (I was 4) I was scared he'd be a french baby and we wouldn't beable to talk to him...I didn't know french kids came from french parents because there were no french adults on sesame street. My mom says until he was born they never were able to get it through my head that because we were english he would be english too.

Damned Sesame Street.

I remember my dad used to imitate Grover's "This is near and this is far" skit. It used to crack me up all the time.

I used to like peanut-butter sandwiches because that was Ernie's favorite food.

My favorite character was Cookie Monster. I used to have a plush doll of him sitting down with a big cookie jar over filled with cookies. It always smelt like real cookies no matter how old it gets.

The Grouch was great along with the cookie monster. They were some of my favorites. That show has changed too much.
