Not canon. This is from The Great Muppet Caper, and this opening number is explicit that they're in a movie.

But yeah, they play *twins*. Later on is this exchange:
Kid: Look dad, a bear!
Dad: No dear, that's a frog. Bears wear hats.

Fozzie & Kermit's dad. Only ever seen this once, and easily my favorite sight gag in all of cinema.

a framed photograph of a man and a muppet is held in human hands. The muppet is a bear with a hat (like Fozzie), but it's green with ping-pong eyes and a pointy frill around its neck (like Kermit).

This weekend involved paying too much to go through a room with chintzy animatronic dinosaurs, but it was worth it in the middle when I got to wear a beautiful snake named Tiki

some dumb guy talking baby talk to a beautiful albino Burmese python draped around his shoulders. The snake is yellow with white markings.

is it generally understood that Biss's veto was perfunctory given his Congressional run? My initial thought was "well, he's sorta has to... "

Your comment was good btw.

Actually this particular sign is one you probably should obey in advance.

A sign reading “do not obey in advance” on a sign marking the clearance height of an overpass.

MLB postseason rooting interest, abbreviated:
1. TOR (No US team in anything deserves to win anything right now. Find a way to award the Lombardi to the Hamilton Ti-Cats).
2-3. MIL or DET would make some good friends very happy.
4-10. the field, except
<NO WAY, FASCISTS>
Cubs and/or Yankees

If you start from either pole instead of the equator, it works. It's like the core dsappears.

I had a quibble about telephones. That was about it.

Also may have helped to have a spouse laughing hard & loud in the room; hope that was your experience as well.

As a kid we had this thrifted Judy Blume box set. I read 'em all despite boy/girl book coding, because what the hell else was I gonna do in 1981 or whatever.

But this is actually a film review: the recent Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret movie is excellent and you should hop to it.
