One of the most famous episodes of Sesame St. November 1983 - The adults explain to Big Bird that Mr. Hooper is dead, and that he's not coming back. It takes a while, but Big Bird eventually comes to terms with it.

did big bird just change the skin colour of the black people in his portrait of them so that they look the same as the white people?

Man i remember watching that as a kid. Really weird seeing it again as an adult. Think they handle it quite well.

So help me understand something. This was submitted and promoted to the front page two days after the _identical_ link -- submitted by me -- expired in the queue. Firstly, I thought if something was discarded it was dead, unless it was submitted with a new URL it could never be resubmitted. Secondly, I hunted for this video day, after day, after day and could never find a valid link. Then I finally find a link -- that expired in the queue -- and a mere two days later someone "stumbles" upon the identical link, submits it, and it hits the front page.

I've double-triple-quadruple checked this, and now I'm fucking mad. What the hell is up with people trolling the discarded bin to get their votes on bronze-star backs? This is bullshit.
