No Thank you…I actually thought of lawn jarts, but thought it was more of a “game” than a “toy”. Maybe that is why I am always in the middle of the pack.

Kids play games, and play **with** toys

I know accuracy in answers only matters to purists.

But, I can’t let this travesty stand: [Miss Piggy](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miss_Piggy) is not a Jim Henson creation - she was Frank Oz’ baby.

Whoa, I’m the only one who sang:  
McDonald’s is your kind of place  
They serve you rattlesnakes  
French fries between your toes  
Hamburgers up your nose  
The last time I went there  
They stole my underwear  
McDonald’s is your kind of plaaaace!

Frank Oz voiced Miss Piggy, but didn’t Jim Henson “create” every Muppet until his death? Officially at least.
