February 28, 200422 yr No more Reading Rainbow.. :( Not like I ever watched it in the first place. :/ :confused: I was more of a Sesame Street person. I never watched RR because it was really, really slow paced.
February 28, 200422 yr I think that may be why I didn't watch it either. One of my fave SS episodes: Dancing Spanish Grover as a waiter.
February 28, 200422 yr i've never liked birds and the sheer idea of a huge yellow bird following children around frightened the beejeezus outa me :o :lol:
February 29, 200422 yr I was a Sesame Street luva too :D And my favorite were Prairie Dawn and Guy Smiley (the cool game show host) :P This post was brought to you by the letter G and the number 4. :dozey:
