The Way We Were

Those of you with young children may have had the displeasure of watching the modern incarnation of Sesame Street... I've only caught it once, and it was an episode about the evils of talk radio. I kid you not. Oscar had a talk radio show in which he was just rude to everyone who disagreed and wasn't that ever so awful and oh my you don't want to grow up like that, now do you?

Whatever happened to teaching our kids how to add, subtract, multiply, divide, read, write, and get their groove on?

Imagine my delight when I discovered, on YouTube, this glorious, seven-minute-long live performance of "Superstition," by Stevie Wonder, from the early 1970s...

On Sesame Street.

Did I ever mention that Fiona absolutely loves dancing to Eminem (and Stevie, actually)? The kid is alright.

Update: Speaking of the way we were, albeit some 10 years or so later, I really used to dig the animated series "MASK." Looking back on the opening sequence however, I would like to make note that the theme song from Star Trek: Enterprise still reigns supreme in cheese.
