This is probably my favorite picture of Jim by himself, san people and Muppets. I love the crispness of the photo, it lets us clearly see the laugh/smile lines on his face. What a man.

“Me wasn’t born with name ‘Cookie Monster’. It just nickname dat stuck. Me don’t remember me real name… maybe it was Sidney?”
One time when I was a little kid and my mom was in the studio, I was sitting in the lounge just watching television, and this guy walked in, this kinda shaggy-lookin’ guy, and I was watching Sesame Street and he said “Hey, do you like Big Bird?” and I said “Yeah!” and he said, “You know in the Sesame Street movie I was an actor and I picked up Big Bird when he was hitch-hiking” and I went “Wow, that’s so incredible!” It wasn’t until I was, like, 20 that I realized that was Waylon Jennings.

This is old school Sesame Street. I’m still mesmerized every time I watch it…I really want a coloring book right now.
