Is it just me?


Or does anyone else find it kind of hilarious that the man behind Elmo is a rather studly African American brother? I really want to hear his real voice.
I also must wonder if he has trouble sleeping at night (I doubt it as he's probably lounging on $4000 sheets made with the ill-gotten gains of our children's Elmo addictions) knowing that parents everywhere are unable to get away from his furry red creation.
Of course, if my friend K. is right, Elmo is just a gateway monster. From there, kids move on to Barney and then to a host of other equally annoying characters.
I can hardly wait.
