Bird is the word

Two things we learned today: 

1. It's Big Bird's 39th birthday. 

2. Big Bird is male. 

We were Googling Big Bird because Neesha needs a costume for her upcoming race, and we were considering Big Bird, but we weren't sure whether to make Big Bird slutty female or slutty male. 

Slutty male, turns out. Big Bird's costars refer to him with masculine pronouns. 

This blog entry was brought to you by the number 69 (for the year of Big Bird's birth) and the letter H (for "him").

Happy birthday, Bird!
