This video is 15 full minutes of amazing. And the best part of it is all of the puppet activities it inspires after watching. Thank you, Jim.
Jim Henson and Muppeteers show kids how to make puppets from simple things like socks. This video aired on Public Television in 1969, prior to Sesame Street, on Iowa Public Television’s “Volume See” kids’ show.
Thanks, Timgrocott.
Reminds me of an awesome quote from a book I just read:
One has not only an ability to perceive the world, but an ability to alter one’s perception of it; more simply, one can change things by the manner in which one looks at them.

Mashup of the Day: From the promising-sounding just-launched YouTube channel cookiewaits comes this glorious meant-to-be-mashup featuring Cookie Monster singing Tom Waits’ “God’s Away on Business.”
The cramazing concoction’s creator says:
Tom Waits sometimes sounds eerily like Cookie Monster. Not that I mind! I happen to love Waits and his carnival barker’s growl!
YouTube Comment of Note: “Have you ever seen Cookie Monster and Tom Waits in the same room at the same time?”
[presurfer.]
Meant to be.
