We all live in a Capital I
In the middle of the desert
In the middle of the sky

And all day long we will polish on the I
Rubbing it here
And buffing it there

And when we're through
With the days only chore
We will go into the I
And we'll close the door.

Stuff like this explains a lot about my mentality.  

Also, what about the clumsy chef.  You know, the guy who'd walk down the steps and say "Eleven Coconut Cream Pies" and then crash to the floor in painful sticky carbo-loaded mess.  

And Grover the Bad Waiter.

Oh well.  Mahna mahna.

Sadly, my childhood was spent doing a lot of Grover impressions. Namesake and whatnot...

Great, guys. Now it's NOT GOING TO LEAVE MY HEAD.

Anyway, Ghostwriter: I think I was just old enough to have contempt for it.

That'd make sense, since while I was wallowing in childish glee at the sassy adventures of the Ghostwriter team, my sister, who's now 23, could only appreciate it on the level of having a crush on Rob, the show's token dreamy poet.  Unfortunately, my Google-fu's off tonight and I can't find a picture of said dreamboat.

Ha, funny because I am 25, and kind of enjoyed it.  Although I do remember liking the earlier episodes best.  I know I was a bit old for it, but I'm probably retarted.  That would explain why I've been a fan of Matlock since I was like, um, 8.

Just to answer a question from some posts back:

1) Reading Rainbow <is> still on. Everytime we meet a man of African descent with a mustache, My five year old daughter tells me "He looks like LeVar".

2) Mr Rogers is still on - I think it was mentioned above, there was no farewell episode for this very reason.

A more recent but really clever and well-done show which my kid sometimes watches is "Read Between the Lions". Anyone seen that?

My big pre-teen crush was on Jonny Depp during "21 Jump Street."  He's still hot, although I hated that damn pirate movie.

Yeah, I catch Mr. Rogers on PBS Kids at about 1 in the a.m.s once a week or so.  It's a great way to reduce stress at the end of the day.
