GNN - Amiable former Senator and current Vice President Joe Biden made a surprise visit to Sesame Street today. Always in search of a laugh, the Veep donned a helmet and striped cape, and posed (far left above) with old stand-by Muppet characters, and the newest resident of Sesame Street, the simple-minded, hair-plugged, illegal Dutch immigrant, building inspector Mister Gunter Dunzkap.
Biden stayed for the latest episode's taping, and he squealed with delight when he received the guest's standard granola bar, 4-ounce cup of plain tonic water, a pair of bio-degradable paper slippers, and an almost new issue of Consumer Reports.
"Street" writers gave this reporter a sneak peek into the politically incorrect Mister Dunzkap, a character of ambivalent sexuality but brimming with masculine bravado, and known for his tag line"This is a big fudging deal!" I was there when the script called for Dunzkap to discover a chip in the red semi-opaque lucite lens on a market's lighted "Exit" sign, demanding an explanation from the market owner, levying a fine and screaming "This is a big fudging deal!". Biden loved the routine.
Producers hope for tag-line gold with an audio-sensitive Mister Dunzkap doll.

Poor old senile Joe (Slow Joe) Biden looks like he'd be more at home as a member of the Muppet cast than he would be in politics.
I just hope that he didn't embarrass himself by eating the checkers again - thinking they were Oreos.
Which one is Biden?
In the helmet and cape, on the left.
I love you
You love me
I comb my hair with a squeegee...
Classic Lovecraft. Damn! This is good. I am crying here ... Dunzkap?
DC, you shoulda been there. Biden was hypnotized by the fizz in his tonic water. He ate the magazine, put the slippers on his hands and did something shocking with the granola bar.
The silver wrapping confused him; he thought it was a bullet for peace and did the insertion right there. I have pictures. See you Monday.
I ate a granola bar last night - it's the last one I will ever imbibe. I just can't pry the wrapper off any more without blanking out.
Something shocking with the granola bar?? He digested it?
Sig, a granola bar after a Low-Fat Hot Pocket? Cool.
No, Nick, he absorbed it, which is even worse.
This is where a debate with Tim would be grand.
Tim is in that picture - in the green outfit.
