I was trying to find some old photos of the puppets from Sesame Street from the 1960s, but had a hard time finding some good photos or videos. Some of the earlier puppets were down right creepy!

They look somehow tame in these photos though.

And yes, Oscar the grouch was originally orange.

Funny we should be talking about this.

The Muppets finally got their star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame (seems so odd having the characters "detached" from their creator). I don't understand how fictional characters are able to get a star on the Walk of Fame in the first place? [huh]

My older Sister dated a guy that looked just like the purple muppet in the first picture above.....

Oh geez! That woman makes me want to strangle her. :p

Yeahhh... I'd say that she had been breathing those nail polish fumes a bit too long down at the Gorgeous Pretty Baby Nail Salon. I swear, you could get high just being downwind of those places. :p
