    They had a few shots with full-body Muppets in the older movies, you know.

    Ever since I got my first router, my Network has been called Muppet Show and every PC has been named after a character:

    Gonzo - desktop replacement laptop. Does a bit of everything, but not always well.
    Beaker - The PhD thsis & data laptop.
    Scooter - Go-anywhere Netbook.
    Kermit - HTPC and system-of-truth.
    Sweetums - Overclocked gaming rig.

    I also always liked Rowlf. This is one of my favourite muppet songs:

    I hope that something better comes along

    Not only is it a rare interaction between Kermit and Rowlf (both Jim Henson puppets, so the technical achievement of this is impressive in it's own right - Jim had to do each part separately and cut the two together), it also more or less formed the foundation of all of my understanding of women ever since I was 7.



    Although I think the crown probably goes to goes to Mahna Mahna.

    The Proposal is a short film I created to propose to my longtime love, Sara.

    Filmed and edited like a movie trailer, the proposal was shown in a real movie theater at the Red River Theater http://www.redrivertheatres.org in Concord New Hampshire on 12/12/10 at 4pm.

    Dear friends and family snuck into the theater after the lights went down and were present when the trailer debuted.

    "muppet" is a combination of "marionette" and "puppet"

    some of my earliest memories are watching old muppet show tapes

    Muppets are most best.

    I always liked Ralph and the Swedish Chef a lot - also Pepe and Rizzo.
    I watched Muppets in Manhattan so many times as a kid... instant nostalgia whenever I see it now.
