Oscar the Grouch has always been a curiosity to me. I understand the approach that what the majorioty calls bad is not always bad and that you can't necessarily judge a book by its cover. After all, I moved onto a college campus in 1964. I saw the culture shifting, without an inkling that we would come to a point where black is white and white is black or even orange or purple or green if you like. Not that I think Oscar necessarily damages kids. He makes them think. But I wonder if he grew up and his name is now Howard Stern.
It came to my attention that Howard Stern, (not the Howard K. Stern of Anna Nicole fame), but the shock jock, is encouraging listeners to vote for the worst singers on 'American Idol.' Now, I'm not really an Idol fan. About as far as I go is to ask who got kicked off this week and to watch snippets here and there. And--we must realize that the title 'American Idol' doesn't really define that the winner must have talent. So I don't really have a beef about that. Is Howard Stern a grown-up version of Oscar the Grouch or could Oscar the Grouch be living a double life?

I agree. He is pretty grouchy.
I can't wait to see you.
I enjoy reading your blog. Looking forward to seeing you here again soon. Hope you and Burt will have a good trip.
I look forward to seeing you too, Amy. While I am there, I hope Jason can teach me how to upload pictures, and add links to other blogs. I will have to write it down to remember.
