Gotta disagree with you there. I'm a huge Muppet fan but all the other Hensonisms have never done anything for me. Maybe it's a lack of Frank Oz.

This song is very dear to my heart.  My grandfather taught it to me, my brother and sister and we used to sing it as we drive around the mountains of Colorado during our summer vacations, knowing make the beast with two backs all about what "whuskey" may be or why it was bad.  You're also getting insight into my family's sense of humor - teaching children drinking songs.  (I am not saying that that is a bad thing, just what is it)

Well, it is all fun and games until someone's younger, more innocent sister goes on a church camp retreat, knows none of the Kumbaya songs, and is asked is there is song she would like to contribute.


I love this post for the same reason I love the muppets. The fact that you can throw something weird out into the world and have something good come back to you. Jim Henson threw a lot of weird stuff at us and created wonderful memories for a bunch of people and all around good karma. I posted a muppet thread in a motorcycle forum and got to share in some people's childhood memories. Cool.

Hell, I even know a guy who tossed a toaster out into the sea of humanity (surely a weird thing to do) and it came back to him as a Ducati Monster.  How very odd. ;)

It's all in the grind, Sizemore. Can't be too fine, can't be too coarse. This, my friend, is a science. I mean you're looking at the guy that believed all the commercials. You know, about the "be all you can be." I made coffee through Desert Storm. I made coffee through Panama while everyone else got to fight, got to be a Ranger.

Not technically a muppet, but this had to be posted.

edit:  Seems it is within the muppet family.
