It ain’t easy, being green. 😛  
So what muppet are you?

Dammit, I wanted to be the Swedish Chef and all I got was this lousy Kermit. Actually, it’s kinda funny since I’m wearing a green shirt and pants today. But it ain’t easy.

Hey, I’m Kermie, too. Which I guess makes sense since frogs are vegetarians like me but some, like Kermit, are in love with bacon! 🙂

I just hope I’m the old Kermit with Jim Henson’s voice and not the new Kermit with that bizarre, I’m-trying-to-do-a-Kermit-voice-immatation-but-not-really-succeeding voice. I hate the new voice if only because everytime I hear it, it reminds me that Jim Henson is dead. ☹

Yep. I finish work, go home, read a book, have a couple of beers, take myself for a walk and go to bed.

I’m Kermit too.

I now wish to tell everyone that part of the reason I married mr. genie is that he does a perfect Kermit voice.

See, this is what happens when I don’t engage the part of my brain used for actual concrete thought processes (like how to tie my shoes) and instead let the part that only thinks about chocolate type on my behalf.

The lengths that I will go to just to try to make a lame joke!

Wocka wocka!

Is this like that Ellen Degeneres joke about her friend that said she was a vegetarian but ate chicken and since when are chicken in the fruit and vegetable part of the food pyramid? Yeah, chicken aren’t too smart but they aren’t vegetables.

I’m Fozzie. I’m sure my brothers would agree that “Wokka Wokka! You love to make lame jokes.” Of course I claim that they make as many stupid puns as I do.

I’m Fozzie.

I don’t get it. Fozzie likes punk rock? If Fozzie were in a play he’d be the newspaper critic (not the comic relief)? Fozzie spends his spare time reading?

Wherein am I Fozzie?

😕

I thought Gonzo…(or maybe one of the old guys in the balcony).
