Howdy-do peeps! Hope all is well in your world! Well, time to rant about over-zealousness and "political-correctness" gone amok!!! I am talking about the Katy Perry video that was taped for a Sesame Street segment, then scrapped because some parents objected to it. Seems it was deemed "too sexy" for viewing by the target audience (2 to 6 year olds). The video features singer katy Perry of "California Girls and I Kissed A Girl" fame cavorting (gosh I love that word) around with Elmo! Katy wears a bustier topped, short dress which is the basic uniform for a twenty-something California Girl. What? You didn't know that? Where have you been recently?

Huummm...could it be that the protesting parents are on to something? Elmo does seem a bit distracted. Naw! My problem with the entire situation is this: where were these parents in all the years that Elmo, Cookie Monster, Big Bird and Kermit have been running around in the "buff"? I mean, these guys have never worn clothes on the show! Kermit wears that silly collar around his neck and Elmo has worn a cowboy hat on occasion!

| See any clothes on this guy? |

| Hey bird, where's your pants? |
 |
| Is it true being in green skin aint easy? |

| Looking quite "dapper" unclothed! |
The last thing I want to want to add as I wiggle my tongue around in my cheek is, "has anyone asked Miss Piggie to weigh in on the controversy? I'd really be interested in hearing her opinion on the matter...afterall, who bares more cleavage on television than Miss Piggy? I mean besides Wendy Williams and Dolly Parton?
