    Aww, Happy Birthday Jim. I loved the Muppets, watched them constantly as a kid. My favorite was Big Bird. And the Fraggles. :mrgreen:

    The entertainer who probably shaped my worldview more than anyone else. I have a deep connection to the Muppet show and have immense amount of respect and admiration for Mr. Henson. Happy 75th Jim. RIP

    LOL, that always bothered me too. I wanted them to be a weird pig/frog mix, kind of like Donkey and Dragon's babies in Shrek. :lol:
