"Brothers"
Yesterday Mike and I went to Astoria to the Museum of the Moving Image to attended a tribute to Jerry Nelson.
Mr. Nelson passed away earlier this year, and this event was filled with joy, some tears, a suprise visit from Snuffy, and some laughs.
Since less than 300 people were there I feel like we got to be part of something rare, something beautiful...
Instead of telling you every little detail, I'm just going to share a video of Jerry as one of my favorite characters; Emmet Otter...

Old Lyrics - Beautiful Pallet
Beautiful Pallet
Don't hate me
Is what I had to say to her
What's my choice
Cradle it again
I wanna live in you, my
Crazy-train
I know you're not using me
So come and join the beautiful pallet
Can't get over me
The Hell you say
You man's over there
Not far away
I know I'm fun
Get that mess
Outta your head
And letitgo and join my beautiful pallet
You know I'm in love you you...
Don't hate me
Is what I had to say to her
What's my choice
Cradle it again
I wanna live in you, my
Crazy-train
I know you're not using me
So come and join the beautiful pallet
Can't get over me
The Hell you say
You man's over there
Not far away
I know I'm fun
Get that mess
Outta your head
And letitgo and join my beautiful pallet
You know I'm in love you you...

The OTHER Muppet movie from 2011...
"Being Elmo"
I realized this morning I never even really mentioned this amazing movie here yet...
Much like "The Muppets" that came out last year and brought the most famous puppets back to the big screen, there was also "Being Elmo"...
A much smaller film, with a bigger heart though.
The film documents puppeteer Kevin Clash's career and is simply inspirational. It's one of those little movies I keep re-watching for a smile...

Old Lyrics - The Best Hooker In Town
The Best Hooker In Town
I was only 13 years old
And didn't know how to do,
How to do those things they say
Make a man out of you
So a few friends of mine
Who were a little older than me
Took me to see a woman
And paid to make a man out of me
She said: "I can be your baby tonite,
Or maybe two.
Don't worry 'cuz I don't bite.
Unless you want me to."
She was the best hooker in town
She spun my teenage world around and round
The best hooker in town
She knew I'd never done it before, and showed me all around
It's been ten years since then,
I'm going gray at 23
Was at a diner the other nite
After 3 AM
And a friend of mine pointed out a waitress
Who had been staring at me
Discreetly I looked over
And her head turned away from me
And I heard those words in my head:
"I can be your baby tonite
Or maybe two.
Don't worry 'cuz I don't bite
Unless you want me to."
She was the best hooker in town
And there she was filling drunken college boys coffee
She was the best hooker in town
But she's got bills to pay, and the world keeps spinnin' around
I was only 13 years old
And didn't know how to do,
How to do those things they say
Make a man out of you
So a few friends of mine
Who were a little older than me
Took me to see a woman
And paid to make a man out of me
She said: "I can be your baby tonite,
Or maybe two.
Don't worry 'cuz I don't bite.
Unless you want me to."
She was the best hooker in town
She spun my teenage world around and round
The best hooker in town
She knew I'd never done it before, and showed me all around
It's been ten years since then,
I'm going gray at 23
Was at a diner the other nite
After 3 AM
And a friend of mine pointed out a waitress
Who had been staring at me
Discreetly I looked over
And her head turned away from me
And I heard those words in my head:
"I can be your baby tonite
Or maybe two.
Don't worry 'cuz I don't bite
Unless you want me to."

But she's got bills to pay, and the world keeps spinnin' around

Old Lyrics - Bill On The Street
Bill On The Street
They say let the system work for you
And it's gone, don't let it
Affect you
It'll all flip over
Within ten days you'll have it all
Within five more it'll all be gone
Hollywood is calling me (you)
Burnt out all the options
And transactions that could
Affect you
It'll all be over
Within ten days you'll have it all
Within five more it'll all be gone
Hollywood is killing me (us)
The lights are as bright as
They said they should be
Pretty girls full of plastic
Pretty boys full of plastic
All paid for with plastic
And I'm no ecstatic
The machine runs smooth for you
Gears well oiled, all is cool
L.A. sunset reminds me of you
Now, it's over
Within ten days I'm going home
Within five days I'll be on my own
Hollywood tried to kill us.
They say let the system work for you
And it's gone, don't let it
Affect you
It'll all flip over
Within ten days you'll have it all
Within five more it'll all be gone
Hollywood is calling me (you)
Burnt out all the options
And transactions that could
Affect you
It'll all be over
Within ten days you'll have it all
Within five more it'll all be gone
Hollywood is killing me (us)
The lights are as bright as
They said they should be
Pretty girls full of plastic
Pretty boys full of plastic
All paid for with plastic
And I'm no ecstatic
The machine runs smooth for you
Gears well oiled, all is cool
L.A. sunset reminds me of you
Now, it's over
Within ten days I'm going home
Within five days I'll be on my own
Hollywood tried to kill us.

Old Lyrics - This Is The Best Day of My Life
This Is The Best Day Of My Life
When I woke up this mornin’ I fell outta bed
This is the best day of my life
When I got dressed I ripped o hole in my pants
This is the best day of my life
Ready for work, get in my car, outta gas
This is the best day of my life
Late for work, I take the bus, someone stole my wallet
This is the best day of my life
My boss tells me to go home, I’m fired
This is the best day of my life
When I get home my girlfriend calls to tell me she’s pregnant
This is the best day of my life
And the baby isn’t mine
This is the best day of my life
I dump her, she tells me to drop dead
This is the best day of my life
At night I go out dancing, I break my leg
This is the best day of my life
Ambulance comes, the driver is drunk
This is the best day of my life
It hits a truck, and goes up in flames
This is the best day of my life
I jump from the fire and fall in a ditch
This is the best day of my life
There is a suitcase in the ditch, I open it up, it’s full of cash, millions, I limp to a hospital, get fixed up, go home, keep the money and live rich forever
I told you
This is the best day of my life
When I woke up this mornin’ I fell outta bed
This is the best day of my life
When I got dressed I ripped o hole in my pants
This is the best day of my life
Ready for work, get in my car, outta gas
This is the best day of my life
Late for work, I take the bus, someone stole my wallet
This is the best day of my life
My boss tells me to go home, I’m fired
This is the best day of my life
When I get home my girlfriend calls to tell me she’s pregnant
This is the best day of my life
And the baby isn’t mine
This is the best day of my life
I dump her, she tells me to drop dead
This is the best day of my life
At night I go out dancing, I break my leg
This is the best day of my life
Ambulance comes, the driver is drunk
This is the best day of my life
It hits a truck, and goes up in flames
This is the best day of my life
I jump from the fire and fall in a ditch
This is the best day of my life
There is a suitcase in the ditch, I open it up, it’s full of cash, millions, I limp to a hospital, get fixed up, go home, keep the money and live rich forever
I told you
This is the best day of my life
