Long before Barney, Blues Clues, Dora The Explorer and the hideous TeleTubbies, there was SESAME STREET. I grew up watching Sesame Street twice a day (morning and afternoon). I never miss it. I think that's where I got my start on the English language. Not to mention the ability to mimic the voices of these wonderful characters such as Ernie and Grover.
But do you remember BIG BIRD. He's the big yellow bird who's not so hard to miss. He's the bird that got lost in the first Sesame Street movie. I think I cried in that movie. Ever wondered who that person was inside the costume? Read more and find out.
Yahoo! posted a video interview (courtesy of the Associated Press) of the person inside the suit. You can watch it here. I urge you to watch it especially if you are a longtime fan of the show. He'll tell you some small tidbits that will surprise you. Plus, he had this very funny punchline in the end. Make sure you take notice.
Post your reactions please. I want to hear your stories about it.

I remember Big Bird. I remember Sesame Street. I remember that I used to laugh like Ernie and I remember being so sad that people doesn't see Snuffy!
Snuffy and Big Bird! They were the BFF of all time! (BFF, american tweens lingo for Best Friends Forever!)
I can sing together with that cartoon that has a pinball with numbers on it. It goes like this: 1,2,3,4-5,6,7,8,9,10.11-12... tooodooodooodooodoooddooo dooo doooo dooo doop dooorooorooop!
Or the Yup aliens! (yup, yup,yup, yup, yup)
My family has never been an english speaker. We are Tagalog and Cebuano. Sesame street has been the ESL teacher for me.
Luv sesame. Luv Kermit! Luv Oscar! Luv Big Bird and Snuffy!
