Muppet Salvation

At long last, two weeks before the semester ends, we finally had a musical theater class that didn't entirely convince me that puncturing my own ear drums was the way to go. We got to talk about the Muppets (?!?!?!?!?!?!?!) and their incredibly fantastic oeuvre. Apparently there were a couple of people who had never seen the Muppets (home-schooled weirdos? You be the judge). During our viewing of "The Rainbow Connection" this caused much consternation, culminating in an outburst of "IT'S A PUPPET, NIKKO! A PUPPET! JESUS CHRIST!" I walked back to my office with "Movin' Right Along" stuck in my head, which I think we can all agree is preferrable to the stab-inducing "Surrey With a Fringe On Top" that stalked me through the hellish Oklahoma unit.
