C Isn't For Cookie? That Aint Good Enough For Me!

My childhood feels like it is being crushed like a chocolate chip cookie that?s been at the bottom of the bag with this one.

Without me even knowing it, Sesame Street has gone all PC on me and changed Cookie Monster's signature song from "C is for Cookie" and replaced it with "Cookie is a sometimes food".

COOKIE IS A SOMETIMES FOOD?

Cookie isn't a sometimes food. Cookie is an every day food. Cookies and milk. Cookies and ice cream. Eat your broccoli and maybe I'll give you a cookie.

What's next? Are they going to call him the Cabbage monster or something healthier?

First, they ban peanut butter in the classroom and now C doesn't stand for cookie anymore.

It's not right I tell you.

It's just not right.

For old times sake, sing it cookie, sing it.

The World Has Come To An End....

Well at least that is how my 11 year old feels about the dramatic new look over at Riverdale High.

"It's just wrong Mommy. How can they do this?"

Who knew she would feel so passionately about comic book characters. Although in retrospect it should come as no surprise to me. This is after all, the same child who one day was looking very contemplative and when asked what she was thinking she said, "don't you think Betty's hair is nicer than Veronicas'?"

Luckily for me, they haven't completely gotten rid of the old B & V and only have one story with the, as they put it, 'dynamic new look'.

The story is found here.
