Sesame Street is still funny...

Ernie's trying to help Bert rub his tummy and pat his head at the same time. Bert's highlights:

"Gym was never my best subject. How about a rousing game of pinochle."

"I got rhythm! I got control! I got hand eye coordination!"

"Try this! Pat your head, rub your tummy, hop on one leg, and recite 'Mary Had A Little Pigeon'...If my gym teacher could see me now!"

And Grover in the next schtick, of an elephant done up in Indian regalia:

GROVER: I have no idea where this guy came from. I tried to hail a taxi and he showed up.
ELEPHANT: Actually, I'm from the Bronx...

Nov. 3 (approx.)--temporary crown put in #19

Nov. 10 (approx)--stitches out #3 (now doesn't that just suck?)

Nov. 23(approx)--permanent crown put in #19

Dec. 13 (approx)--temporary crown put in #3
