Its Not Easy Being Foz

I thought I should breach the serious issue of friends taking friends for granted.

Of course you've heard of the muppets! Everyone has. As you grew, you watched the bizarre romancing of Miss Piggy, enjoyed the destructive comedy of Animal and puzzled for days on what type of creature Gonzo might be. But who sticks out most in your mind? That's easy. KERMIT! That sensitive, sensible, good-hearted frog, strumming his guitar and singing about rainbows. Everyone loves Kermit the most. He's a great guy: everyone's favorite character.

But what about the guy behind the frog? Who remembers him? After a few minutes of scratching your head you might think "Oh yeah, the brown furry bear, the funny one." The funny one. That's all they remember. I was a good guy too! I was a great friend to Kermit when he had problems. But of course, none of any "perfect" Kermit's problems ever made it to the set. Kermit's the chivalrous one. The hero. The happy-ending muppet. And there he is "Oh, woe is me! Its Not Easy Being Green." Well, I'll tell you, Kermit, its not easy being Fozzy either. Not many can get way with wearing a pink polka-dotted bow tie and a press hat, cracking jokes all the way: bringing some life to your tedious melodrama. Now I'm not complaining or anything. Kermit can have his glory. I just want a little recognition. Kermit's not the only one up there on the screen, ya know. Just a little recognition. Is that so much to ask?

The Internet is for Porn

Its crude but true!
Lots of thanks to Avenue Q and YouTube.



I'll try to make my next post something of substance, I promise!

I realize that this is a bit early, since St. Patrick's Day isn't until Monday. But I don't really care, because this video is too cool to wait a few more days. (Plus, there's the whole thing about it falling on Holy Week, and we can't party during Holy Week or something. Whatever)

Tiny Tunes!

Time for some random fun! Here's Tiny Tunes, our younger generation's response to the desperate need for more Looney Tunes classics. Maybe its not the best work Stephen Spielberg has been involved with, but its still pretty damn awesome!
