ber tan dernie
I realise Bert and Ernie have made a recent appearance here but I'm feeling a little lazy and this made me laugh.
Now if you'll excuse me, I have an elephant on hold ....

The Pancake Chronicles
My name is Colleen.
I love taking my time and finding beauty and humour in things before they happen - as in seeds and salamanders.
"The sweetest thing in all my life has been the longing — to reach the Mountain, to find the place where all the beauty came from — my country, the place where I ought to have been born. Do you think it all meant nothing, all the longing? The longing for home? For indeed it now feels not like going, but like going back."
C.S. Lewis - Till We Have Faces: A Myth Retold
"Look, it's not in my nature to be mysterious. But I can't talk about it and I can't talk about why."

oh they are the best...i loe it when we get to watch sesame street:)
Oh my gosh, I have a 2 year old who loves Sesame Street & I love this one too!!! :-D Too cute!
Colleen, just want you to know I talk to you almost everyday on the bananaphone. "I like paperclips. I like the colour green. maybe we should meet."
I'd like to get a banana phone installed in my office...
If you guys don't already know I've tried and TRIED calling you on my bananaphone but not a one of you picked up. I'm beginning to take this personally. Wait a sec. It could be my banana. Come to think of it bananas have let me down before but you never have. Awww, you guys are great.
Ah, Bert & Ernie. Classic comedy at it's best. :)
"I like paperclips". Oh he is so adorable!
I find courgettes (zuchinis) to be more reliable. Better reception for some reason. Plus, bananas eat up your credit like there's no tomorrow.
My favourite part is the last line: "I'm about 6'2", blond hair...I don't think we should meet, no..."
Maybe a subtle subconscious reminder to our pre-schoolers that not everyone tells the truth about themselves over the phone?
Friggin' hilarious.
Oh my gosh!!!! I LOVE you!!!!
You know, I never watched Sesame Street when I was a kid because we couldn't get the channel on our TV. I don't think I realized how funny it was. This made me laugh out loud.
"I'm just not emotionally secure enough to do this, Ernie." Too funny.
any questions?
