The plantain is part of the banana family

So you're probably like, why does this idiot have a picture of Super Grover on his blog. Hmm, well simply put...love Super Grover. That's about all the explanation I can provide.

I still watch Sesame Street when I can too. If you've ever really sat down & watched the bits with all the characters, it's lol hilarious! Being me, and being curious by nature, I wonder how some of these guys came to find a home on Sesame Street. Such as...

Kermit the Frog - the only real normal one of the bunch (besides the fact that he's sexually involved with a pig). Or did he & Miss Piggy break up?! Idk. I don't remember hearing about anything on TMZ. I think if I were Kermit, one could only take so much of "hey who's with the pig?".

Oscar the Grouch - you bitter, angry b@stard. Hey guy, how about getting a job? Then you could move out of the trash can & in to a studio apartment. Someone needs to get this guy on the show "Intervention", cause he's in need of some serious help. Then again, he's been living in his own urine & feces for 40 years, so why stop now.

Big Bird - what a freak of nature. I'd be scared to death if I saw that thing coming towards me down the street. When I ride my bike at the park, I don't even make eye contact with the geese because I'm afraid they'll bite my face off.

The Count - ok, what's with the accent? And are we supposed to be scared? He doesn't change in to a bat or sleep in a coffin, and he goes out during the day...I mean c'mon. Plus I know Twilight, and he doesn't sparkle. I'm convinced he's just a regular guy with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder due to the fact he feels the need to count everything. Off camera I'm sure he's always washing his hands. "Eh eh eh.."

Bert & Ernie - two adult men sharing a one bedroom apartment, with their beds (please note that one has an "E", the other has a "B", is this even necessary?) in the same room. Besides the obvious question, I have another...how the hell do they afford this place? Do they work? Ernie spends all his time in the tub, and who's gonna hire a guy with a thick, black unibrow? Staffing agencies most likely turn Bert away.

Cookie Monster - probably has the highest cholesterol count of anyone on the street. Alhough this guy tries to abstain from eating cookies all day, he has no will power. I'm thinking he may have a tapeworm, or type I diabetes. Someone should introduce him to a box of Snackwells (nom, nom, nom).

Mr. Snuffleupagus - finally came out of hiding in the mid 80's. It used to be that only Big Bird could see him, then he'd bolt anytime someone else would come around. What was he so self conscious about? Maybe cause his only friend was a freakish looking yellow bird that could walk and talk. Apparently that wasn't socially acceptable until 1985.

Guy Smiley - America's forgotten game show host! Long before Pat Sajak & Chuck Woolery became somewhat popular, Guy had it all. Unfortunately, he disappeared a few years back. He probably borrowed money from the wrong person. Did you notice he was always over excited & shouted alot. One word, methamphetamines.

As stated in the very beginning...I left my all time favorite for last:

Grover (or Super Grover) - besides Darth Vader, he is by far the coolest guy ever, but not the sharpest knife in the drawer. He ties a bright red cape around his neck (and wrists), and wears a Roman helmet that is like 6 sizes too big for his head, then crashes into everything. In reality, this guy has no business being a superhero, but I like the fact that he does it anyway. And in most cases, the people in distress solve their dilemma when he's not looking. Although that's great for them, I'm sure he's pissed that they wasted his time.

Keep at it Super Grover, you're my hero. Yeah that's right, I said it...

xoxo,
Mike Mason
