i was both surprised and delighted to find an e-mail in my inbox this morning, from a guy i don\u2019t even know, who lives in a town in illinois i\u2019ve never even heard of, telling me what he knows about arthur and celeste. as you may recall, i just wrote about wanting to find out about them and had heard nothing from nobody.<\/p>\n
this guy, named steve, said he saw my show which made him want to read my website, and this is what he knows about arthur and celeste: “Arthur and Celeste were Babar the elephant\u2019s cousins (Babar later married Celeste) and the song comes from the first book, “The Story of Babar”. I<\/p>\n
vaguely recognized the song and I wonder if it came from a semi-animated version that I think was done on Capt. Kangaroo or another kids show from the early `60\u2019s.”<\/p>\n
ok, so i do have to say that when i looked the song up online, to no avail, i did find that arthur and celeste were babar\u2019s cousins. i had thought they were his parents or something. <\/p>\n
i also find it a little disturbing that babar MARRIED celeste. his COUSIN. aren\u2019t there very specific laws against that kind of thing? <\/p>\n
maybe it\u2019s different for elephants. <\/p>\n
now, i bet i did hear that song on captain kangaroo because i watched it all the time, and maybe the record was sold because the song was so popular on the show.<\/p>\n
but still, what about the lyrics? what about the little yellow record itself? where did it go, and where can i get another one?<\/p>\n
these are my weighty and pressing issues this (thank god SUNNY) tuesday morning.<\/p>\n
i\u2019m sitting here at amy and jim\u2019s and the two wild dogs, Numi and Noodle, were lying on the floor behind me, and i thought they were being good, chewing on their rawhide bones. but i turned around, and instead, Numi (also known as Nubi) was instead eating a PLANT. and now there are plant pieces all over the floor.<\/p>\n
i hope it doesn\u2019t make him throw up.<\/p>\n
that\u2019s all from the zoo for right now.<\/p>\n
thanks again, steve.<\/p>\n
ok then,<\/p>\n
tuesday morning grace.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
