LOS ANGELES (CBS) — Will the Children’s Television Workshop give way to same-sex puppet love?

An online campaign is calling for the producers of TV’s “Sesame Street” to allow characters Bert and Ernie to get married in an attempt to “put an end to the bullying and suicides of LGBT youth”, according to the group’s Facebook page.

The petition letter adds that “[w]e are not asking that Sesame Street do anything crude or disrespectful by allowing Bert & Ernie to marry”, suggesting that the show “even add a transgender character to the show…in a tasteful way”.

If you find out what that is let me know too.
I guess I’m out of touch.

“Salad tossing?” Dear Lord, that’s a new one to me...do I even want to know?

No, you don't want to know. I'll just leave it at that. I wouldn't have known except for an Oprah episode I was forced to endure.

You are probably right - I’ll trust your opinion and not pursue it.

Thanks for the warning.
So many things shock me now days, and I didn’t think I was naive.
