What does Grover do when he's alone? ('Sesame Street' Wednesday)

What does lovable, furry Grover do when he's alone?

Ponder, ponder.

Because numerous 'Sesame Street' sketches show ol' Groves failing at every occupation he takes, I'm sure he doesn't have much of a social life, so he probably does lots of things alone.

In his free time, Grover probably dons an old-fashioned police hat, ties himself to a chair with rope, pretends it's Mr. Snuffleupagus's trunk, and starts goin' to town.

He probably logs on to Hard Rock Cafe t-shirt fetish sites, downloads all the images, and charges them to the credit card he stole from Bert. Then he fantasizes about working at a Hard Rock Cafe instead of the restaurant where he is usually seen, and selling a shirt to the blue Anything Muppet who complains about everything.

Whatever floats your boat, Grovie.

Grover's never going to admit any of this, of course. Like in this 1971 clip, he sings a song in which he never faces up to his interests:



Although the clip is from 1971, somebody added '80s MTV-style tags at the beginning and end.

Grover, you are a hero to us all.
