		<title>The Muppets Are Back!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Although they never really went away completely, it seems as if the Muppets as we old-timers knew them are back, and in full force! When the Walt Disney Company acquired the Muppet properties in 2004, the Muppets had just about faded into obscurity. They were seen around on the occasional TV special, interview show, or direct to [...]]]></description>

		<title>Muppets &#8220;Bohemian Rhapsody&#8221;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
In case you&#8217;ve been under a rock for the past few days, you may have missed this terrific video of the Muppets performing the classic Queen song, &#8220;Bohemian Rhapsody.&#8221;
This YouTube video went positively viral via Twitter and other social networking feeds yesterday. There&#8217;s a reason:  It truly brings us back to the days of classic [...]]]></description>

		<title>Getting There (Slowly)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As you can see, I made some progress over the weekend! We&#8217;re beginning to get to the &#8220;adding features&#8221; phase of development. I just need to complete the body, arms, and hands, and then I&#8217;ll move on to adding facial features. I need to carve a nose and ears, and attach hair.
I&#8217;m moving a bit [...]]]></description>

		<title>My Thoughts About the Sesame Street Season Premiere</title>
		<description><![CDATA[With the 40th Anniversary of Sesame Street now behind us, and this season underway, I wanted to share my thoughts about yesterday&#8217;s season premiere. Let me preface my thoughts by saying this: It&#8217;s been a long time since I watched Sesame Street from start to finish. I&#8217;ve watched segments, seen clips, and read reviews, but [...]]]></description>

		<title>And Many Happy Returns!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It was 40 years ago today that a TV show was introduced to viewing audiences, although that show was more than three years in the making. It was an ambitious project. It had never been done. Television producers worked with educators and researchers to create this show. Story meetings gave way to curriculum meetings, and [...]]]></description>

		<title>Because He Loves to Count Things!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Count von Count, or just The Count for brevity&#8217;s sake, loves to count things! Just ask any Sesame Street viewer to count to 10 and see if you don&#8217;t get the numbers in a strangely Draculinean (is that a word?) accent, punctuated with a clap of thunder!

The Count was introduced in the early 70&#8217;s in [...]]]></description>

		<title>Why Elmo Isn&#8217;t Evil</title>
		<description><![CDATA[There are those that believe that Sesame Street &#8220;jumped the shark&#8221; when Elmo &#8220;took over.&#8221; There are those that believe that the show has lost its edge, lost what made it special, now that Elmo is a central character. Change of any kind is difficult to deal with, and Elmo is change.

First of all, it [...]]]></description>

		<title>Mr. Snuffleupagus is REAL!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I always worried about how Big Bird felt when the adults on Sesame Street told him that Mr. Snuffleupagus, or Snuffy to his friends, was not real. The show had created a running gag from the time Snuffy was introduced in 1971 &#8211; Snuffy would cause Big Bird to be late for something because he [...]]]></description>

		<title>Farewell, Mr. Hooper</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Remember that I grew up watching Sesame Street. I watched it from about the time it first aired in 1969 until well through High School (although in later years I only watched it occasionally and as a fan of the Muppets or as someone interested in becoming a teacher) and into college.

One of my favorite non-Muppet [...]]]></description>
