Because I managed to get a response by writing about a "Sesame Street" routine last time around, I have decided to see what happens if I try this tactic again! In my last "Sesame Street" orianted post on this page, I mentioned a classic routine called the "Alligator King". This song and cartoon has to do with the number seven and I wrote about it because my last two threads on this page had generaged seven views each by neither or them had any responses. At this point, although my "Alligator King" post has someone else's response and my response to that response, the two that are right under it both have none! However, the number of views of my thread called "A Slow Period" has jumped up one bringing us to a grand total of eight! This makes me think of a classic skit with the mad painter. For those of you who happen to by fans of the "Jeffersons" the actor who played the painter was the same man who played Mr. Bently from that sereis. In any event, there was a man in a swimming pool floating on a raft holding a newspaper. Being that the man had very little hair, the painter had no problem painting an eight on his head. After the man on the raft realized what had happned he started chasing the painter through the water and into the yard. The situation was handled in pure slapstick form! Oh the memories!
