Old School Sesame Street

Don't ask me why, but yesterday, I suddenly had a song from old school Sesame Street in my head and decided to type it into YouTube to see what would pop up. Let me tell you that I found tons of the old bits that I loved when I was a kid and that I even watched into my senior year of high school..."Mr. Timian, I couldn't practice for my flute lesson before State because I was watching Sesame Street last night."

Anyway, so I typed in a few things and found some treasures. So I will list the ones that I have remembered all these years, that I found and then you can go check them out and see if you remember them, and see what other ones you can find. You can just copy and paste the addresses, or type in the subject line, or find your own gems.

1. Teeny Little Super Guy: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rjvt6xqKwV8
