Some Good News…

| August 11, 2011

I needed some good news today. One of those KIA on the chopper is from my hometown and I’ve been scrambling to help organize a memorial from some distance. Others are well ahead of me, but a nudge can’t hurt.

So… Via TSO on FB.

It’s not true!

Sesame Street has finally responded to age-old rumors that Bert and Ernie are gay — claiming the infamous room-sharing man-puppet odd couple are JUST FRIENDS … and have no sexual orientation whatsoever.

A petition emerged online this week, urging the creators of Sesame Street to marry the two puppets — but the Sesame Workshop just posted a message on its Facebook account, writing, “Bert and Ernie are best friends.”

I’ll leave the speculation as to why TSO has been following this story to others?

Thank you, I never thought that Jim Henson had any intention than them being anything but being friends. You know kinda like their namesakes Bert and Ernie from Its a Wonderful Life.

The pilot and flight crew are all from the KC area and we have been hearing quite a bit on the news. Nothing yet on a memorial yet, but with Topeka so close I won’t be surprised is a certain bunch of assclowns try to show up.

Haha, lies! Anyone who ever heard the new claymation theme song for Bert and Ernie know those two are all up in gayness. My kid is ten months old so I could sing this song in my sleep:

Maybe its just one of those NSA or “friends with benefits” deal. And besides, you’re really not gay unless you’re the bottom…at least that’s what I heard on Craigslist. And Big Bird strikes me as sort of avian hermaphrodite. And never take candy from that Mr. Hooper fellow. Personally I think he was running some numbers racket in the back room. There’s just no other way he could stay in business.

Kinda makes me wonder about those Stadler and Waldorf guys as well. Just some bad juju.

JPJ, ahead of their inevitable visit, make sure the tire stores all know not do business with anyone from Westboro. Not advocating, just saying.

What they won’t admit to is that bert, ernie and kermit have threesomes in the puppet box between takes…
