This year in May it is 19 years that Jim Henson died. I just watched the Mupets Celebration for Jim Henson which makes me laugh ("He was our clerk") and cry (when they start reading the letters) ever again.

So, who is your favorite Muppet?
Mine is - let's see: Kermit, for being wise and funny and curious. Miss Piggy, for being gorgeous and strong and glamorous. Gonzo, for being crazy. Oscar, for being himself. The Beast, born to be wild. Big Bird, I love him. And all of those monsters, all of them.

my other two favorite were the Swedish chef and Beeker, the skinny guy with crazy red hair that followed the green doctor around and spoke like "mee mee mee mee"

I used to be freaked out by Beeker because he didn't talk, and I was scared of the Swedish chef for the same reason...Looking back, I have no idea why that would be so freaky to me!?
