40 years of Sesame Street
Today marks the 40th anniversary of the premiere of Sesame Street.
Growing up watching Sesame Street my favorite characters were Bert and Ernie. They were a classic comedy team. As a child I use to laugh at their characters idiosyncrasies. The Ernie laugh or the Bert brow furrow would leave me in stitches. Now as an adult and a performer I marvel at their simple well executed characters and comedy. I do not think it is any surprise that they are a major influence in the comedy of Miller and Mike.
To celebrate this day I might just make a peanut butter and jelly sandwich; pour myself a tall glass of milk; and watch some Sesame Street.

In the spirit of laughter,
