This morning, as usual, Ella ate her breakfast in the high chair while "The Bear in the Big Blue House" was on. (I only let her sit in front of the TV for breakfast because Sesame Street is soon to follow.) Anywho, after the Bear came "Blue's Clues." Well, I walked into the living room and Ella turned to me and exclaimed with great enthusiasm while pointing to the TV..."DADDA. DADDA." Now if any of you have ever seen "Blue's Clues" you know that there are a few similarities between Phillip and the original host Steve. Phillip has been accused of this since the show began. I tried several times to tell Ella that it wasn't Daddy because he was at work but she refused to believe it. I think she will forever believe her dad's work involves chasing a blue cartoon puppy around the TV. Ahh, Good Times! Phillip will die! He hates it when anyone associates the two and now for his own daughter to accuse him of actually being Steve! Oh my!

That... is... HILARIOUS!!! I knwo he won't be amused AT ALL, but I got a good chuckle. Thanks for brightening my day!
Tpying too fast. I really CAN spell. K-N-O-W. See?
Goodness. I can spell, really. It's t-y-p-i-n-g. I need to get off work and out of this place.
Ok that is too funny!!
That is tooo funny!!!!
You're killing me!!! Her (great)uncle Roy has been accused of the same resemblance by many...tell Ella it's really me, and I'll be visiting in a couple of weeks. That way, she'll never confuse her Dad with that nerdy looking guy ever again!!!
That's better than being mistaken for looking like Pee-Wee Herman, I guess!
Yeah, yeah. Yuk it up.
Everyone should recognize that I have several prominent features that distinguish me from the great-green-striped one.
First, I have distinctively cool spikey hair. Actually its more "intentionally disheveled" than "spikey," but I'm not one to split hairs. Ugh, terrible pun.
Second, I'm much larger than Steve. His stature pales in comparison to my massiveness.
Third, there's my huge mis-shaped nose.
Fourth, I never go with the double thumbs up. Its waaaay over the top. Its always best to stay with a single thumbs up. Common sense tells you that you only double up on peace signs and west coast rap gang signs. Double thumbs-uppers are just asking for a beat down.
Fifth, I don't have creepy thumbs. Thats guys thumbs are seriously creepin' me out man.
Sixth, my wife will pay dearly for this. True, this isn't really a "difference," but if you're reading this far, you probably don't care anyway, and I wanted to hide my threat deep in here so she hopefully wouldn't see it.
Seventh, bangs and lip gloss. He clearly wears both; I generally never mix the two.
In conclusion, I'm aghast that you guys think we look alike, and I doubt seriously how emphatic my daughter was on this particular occassion. Also, be suspicious of what her true intentions were. After all, she also looks at Nash, some neighbors, the couch, the oven, and even a few potted plants and screams "da-da." She hasn't really gotten that whole paternity thing down just yet, but we're trying.
Contrary to what you think, Phillip, I think she does get it because she did it AGAIN today!
I love you though and I saw the threat and you should at least be proud of me for actually getting you first. After all you are always looking to embarrass me; it's only fair I beat you to the punch for once!
Here is a more contemporary picture...you be the judge...

This really made me happy! I feel like I should tell my kiddos that their daddy is friends with Steve! They would be so impressed!!
