I'm not surprised she likes Cookie Monster. As a kid, with no english, I would watch Sesame Street all the time. And yes, I too was completely fascinated with the monsters, the singing and dancing. My favorite has always been Cookie Monster, followed closely by Oscar. Perhaps it's the originality of the beings: Furry and big, colorful, with a funny voice. Something you don't meet everyday. Must be amazing to be have puppeteers at home, when growing up! ---------------------------------------------- Mathieu RENE, CREATURISTE Marionnettes, masques, etc. Puppets, Masks, etc. http://www.magma.ca/~uubald uubald-AT-magma.ca Montreal, Canada (514) 725 - 5821 ---------------------------------------------- --- Personal replies to: Mathieu <uubald-AT-magma.ca> --- List replies to: puptcrit-AT-lists.village.virginia.edu --- Admin commands to: majordomo-AT-lists.village.virginia.edu --- Archives at: http://lists.village.virginia.edu/~spoons
