    I used to watch him...after the Muppet Show.

    apparently, they still tour.

    Close but they were little brown stubbies. I actually have one. I have got to figure out how to post pics here!!
    A short story- Last year, in early April, my husband & I were walking thru a Provincial Park here in Ontario. They are mostly campgrounds and usually aren`t open until May but you can park at the locked gates & walk in. We saw a handful of others about, had a picnic, & were strolling down the road on our way out when I happened to glance into the leafless bush. There, on a stump, about 100 feet in was a little brown stubby bottle :o No label, full of debris, but in perfect condition & calling my name. No fricken way could this bottle have been sitting there for over twenty years. :shock: Brought me right back to 1980. If I put it to my ear, I can hear The Who & Zeppelin, smell the Acapulco Gold & the hairspray from our big hair :D

    the moral of the story is: we all just turned out pretty fucking great!

    kids now a days are just fucked up. you cant discipline your kids w/o them calling dyfus.

    we didnt have the technology we have today, the toys are "safer"...but we all turned out just fine
    it's largely due to eddie that i liked to jump off of things as a child...
