Sesame Street Begins Teaching Math and Science
An anonymous reader sends in this excerpt from ABC News:
"This season of 'Sesame Street,' which premiered today, has added a few new things to its usual mix of song, dance and educational lessons. In its 42nd season, the preschool educational series is tackling math, science, technology, and engineering — all problem areas for America's students — in hopes of helping kids measure up. ... This season, 'Sesame Street' will include age-appropriate experimentation — even the orange monster Murray will conduct science experiments in a recurring feature."
Cookie not square. Cookie round.
Because last time i checked, C is for cookie, thats good enough for me
You, like me are too old.
Cookie Monster has been castrated. Cookies are a "sometimes food", and he mostly eats vegetables now.
And Elmo is the antithesis of all that was ever good about the show.
My attempt when discussing these things wit a very inquisitive 5year old (She asked what quantum mechanics was the other day) is "That's an interesting question and will take me some time to explain it. I don't have that time now, but we can talk about it when I have finished my job." With this I have to commit to answering the question.
The other answer I can give is (and I have to every now again) "I don't know. We should find out."

This is a right-wing lie/urban legend:

It was Hoots the Owl who sang "A Cookie Is a Sometimes Food" to Cookie Monster. At the end of the song, Cookie Monster declared, "NOW is sometimes!" and gobbled the cookie anyway.
