About My LASIK
Hello all!!
I promised I would do a post on my LASIK. I have 2 more hours at one of my jobs and things are slow, so I figured now...
haha the original big bird was a goof ball… I am glad they made over the head!

The first 2:42 of Sesame Street, via merlin:
This Way to Sesame Street (Excerpt; November, 1969)
Lot to love in the first few minutes of the first Sesame Street. Not least Gordon1’s outstanding facial hair. Also, just can’t believe Bob’s been on this show for 40 years. (He was my favorite of the grownups from the beginning)
As an intro from the oddly placid Bert and Ernie suggests, this particular clip is from a preview/teaser of the show:
Sesame Street (Beginnings)
Two days before the premiere of Sesame Street, a thirty-minute preview entitled This Way to Sesame Street was shown on NBC. The show was financed by a $50,000 grant from Xerox. Written by Stone and produced by CTW publicist Bob Hatch, it was taped the day before it aired. Newsday called the preview “a unique display of cooperation between commercial and noncommercial broadcasters”. Sesame Street premiered on PBS on November 10, 1969.
I was about two weeks shy of turning 3, and I was definitely a fan. Big Bird’s initial microcephaly notwithstanding.
