Because there's no such thing as too much cheese. Unrolling the braciole of consciousness; shaping the meatball of life. Because everything is funny; you just need to view it from the proper angle. Good for cats. Made in Poland. Because everything is like a hat. You know how those gorillas can be... Very unforgiving.

Cookie used to sing bits of "La la la, linoleum" back in the (relatively peaceful) days before he could talk. We played that song video for him, oh, several hundred times. Back then Cookie's favorite word was "juice," something he would intone in the form of a command delivered as a question. We kept many bottles of Juicy-Juice on hand to quench his unending thirst. At the time, Juicy-Juice had a cross-license agreement with Sesame Street that allowed them to put the faces of muppets on the bottle labels. I remember the big bottles of red juice with Ernie and Bert's face on the front. Cookie would point to the bottle and ask for it by name:

"La-La-Juice."
