Back then — as on the very first episode, which aired on PBS Nov. 10, 1969 — a pretty, lonely girl like Sally might find herself befriended by an older male stranger who held her hand and took her home. Granted, Gordon just wanted Sally to meet his wife and have some milk and cookies, but . . . well, he could have wanted anything. As it was, he fed her milk and cookies. The milk looks dangerously whole.

Oh god. I think this is a case where people sometimes have nothing to write about so they come with stuff just to cause a reaction.

Thanks for the story, I laughed.

I laughed pretty hard at the "milk looks dangerously whole" line as well. I better run home and clean out the fridge before anymore of that makes an appearance in our home!

I credit Sesame Street in the early 70s for my love of the English language.
