Rubber Ducky

1) This song is sung by Muppet Ernie. Who's your favorite Muppet? Ernie and Kermit are forever my favorites

2) Ernie became famous on PBS's Sesame Street. What public television shows do you watch? Downton Abbey and Finding Your Roots

3) When you were a little kid, what was your favorite TV show? Sesame Street and ZOOM and Mr. Rogers and The Electric Company and The Friendly Giant

4) On Sesame Street, Ernie frequently teases his best friend Bert by stealing his nose. Do you enjoy practical jokes? elaborate, not scary ones

5) Sesame Street creators developed carefree Ernie and serious Bert to show children that different types of people can be good friends. Think about your closest friend. Tell us how you two differ. she is considerably busier than I am

6) Bert and Ernie share a basement apartment on Sesame Street. Tell us about the basement of the building you're in right now. I've never been in it because it's on other side of the building--it's around the back

7) Ernie and Bert were created by Jim Henson. In addition to being an accomplished puppeteer, Mr. Henson was also a talented cartoonist. Can you draw? I cannot draw however, my attitude is that it's representational so I draw anyhow

8) Jim Henson made his first puppets himself using felt, foam rubber, string and rods -- all items that can be purchased at an arts and crafts store. When is the last time you shopped in an arts and crafts store? to buy yarn--on Thursday

9) When is the last time you took a bath (as opposed to a shower)? it's been a million years ago!

I loved Zoom. I still remember that song with their address in it.

I love that you draw anyway. I believe that everyone can draw exquisitely and unlike anyone else, and each has the talent to add something to the world that comes from deep within their very unique heart of hearts. Keep drawing for the joy of it!

Kermit is cool. It's not easy being green...

I usually don't like practical jokes, but some of the more elaborate jokes get a giggle out of me. :)

All those years in your building and you've never EVER been in the basement? You've gotta go!
