Big Bird A Party To Murder

When I read the article the first time in the LA Times today I could have sworn it was saying that Sesame Street's Big Bird was guilty of murder. As it turns out it's a caretaker at the home of the puppeteer for Big Bird that has been charged in the death of a jogger.

Phew, for a minute there I wasn't sure what to think. I mean if Big Bird were charged with murder then who knows what would be next.

Just think.

• Burt and Ernie would finally come out of the closet.
• Mr. Hoopers death would be shown as a mob hit for outstanding gambling debts.
  
• Gordon turns out to be pimping out Maria, Susan and even his sister Olivia.
• Elmo and Zoe end up being used in a muppet child prostitution ring run by Herry Monster, Sully and Telly.

I'm sure the list would go on.
