If you've ever wanted to see CNN's Anderson Cooper report the news from a trash can, today's your lucky day.

Cooper will be a guest today on PBS' Sesame Street. Check out the pic on the right. That's Cooper inside a trash can, next to Oscar The Grouch and his trash can. He'll be reporting for GNN: The Grouch News Network.

I was obsessed with Sesame Street as a kid. And I liked Zoom too (I never really got into Electric Company). Is GNN something they've done before, or does Oscar The Grouch suddenly have a worldwide news network just for this one episode? Maybe Anderson will teach the kids to count up to 360.

Next week: Lou Dobbs teaches the kids about immigration on a very special Teletubbies.
