For the sake of trying to stimulate some conversation, I am going to offer you guys three possible associations between Dr. Suess and this show in general and this page in particular. To start with, very often when I post a message and it gets no replies and the number of views stagnates for a while, I post another thread to commemorate that number. For a while, what I would do would be think of a skit on "Sesame Street" that had to do with that number and write about it. However, in the recent past, I have dabbled in other ways to commemorate given numbers. My thread called "Poetry Hour" has no responses and the number of views has stagnated at fifteen for quite some time. The first thing that I would like to point out is that fifteen years ago this year, a biography about Dr. Suess was written. By this time, he was already dead, but his second wife was still living and was mentioned in the present tenth. I found it an excellent read! In one episode of the series, the character of Phoebe needed a way to conveniently excuse herself from a room. Her words were, "I just remembered, I have to go to my 'Green Eggs and Ham' discussion group"! Smooth Phoebe, real smooth! Similtaniously with being Phoebe Buffet, she also starred in a movie called "Marci X". Incedentially, it was my favorite movie of all times! In any case, her character was dating a rapper from Halem by the name of Dr. S. After dating a Jewish American Princess like Marci Feld, his lost his image as a hard core rapper from the ghetto. Some kid who was interviewed by a news reporter said that he was not even Dr. S. anymore. He was Dr. Suess!
