What’s In The Box? Is It A Cookie?

I’m a big Muppet fan and here is a great example of Jim Henson’s work on Sesame Street.

All Cookie Monster has to do is guess what’s in the box and he gets a cookie. Can’t be that hard… right?

Cookie Monster Giving Up Cookies? I Doubt It.

Growing up, Sesame Street’s Cookie Monster was all about the cookies. He was a cookie monster after all. But now a days there is a big healthy eating push and somehow, a big blue muppet has more say in what kids eat than parents. Course that could be because the parents sit the kids in front of the TV all day.

Anyway, Matt Lauer did an interview with Cookie Monster to get all the details. Is he giving up cookies? Is he going to be the Fruit Monster? Watch and find out.

Computer Monster – Take That Technology

The beauty of YouTube is that people can upload videos from long ago. Things I’d never see otherwise. Check out this fun clip from before I was born (1971) where a pre-Cookie Monster Muppet thinks a computer looks tasty. Mmmmm technology.

According to Boing Boing, the character is Wheel-Stealer who eventually evolved into Cookie Monster. Cookie Monster or not, it’s still a great clip.
