I'll always have a soft spot for the star: Kermit. To this day, "The Rainbow Connection" is my favorite song. Kermit is sort of the embodiment of some of our better angels.

My favorite would be Kermit! I love stuffed toy frogs cause they look so cute. ^^ I like Kermit too cause he's smart and funny and I think he's one of the most popular Muppet there is. :)

And oh, he has a star in the Hollywood walk of fame!

Yea... ^^ actually Kermit's one of the puppets who isn't really treated as a puppet but a 'real' artist. ^^

Prior to the Muppet Show, Jim Henson gained fame for his Muppet creations on Sesame street, starting in 1969. Big Bird, Oscar the Grouch, Bert and Ernie were all his creation. He was the actual puppeteer for Ernie and provided his voice until his death.

My favorite Muppet of all time, one so great, one whose example and teachings I follow with near religious zeal is: (may I have the envelope, please).....

COOKIE MONSTER

Yes, Cookie Monster, who made his debut on an IBM training film in 1967 as the "Computer Eating Monster", had his name changed, some minor dental work performed, and appeared as Cookie Monster for the first time on Sesame Street on December 2, 1969.

God Bless the memory of Jim Henson, and long live Cookie Monster!

He who follows his cookie crumbs shall find the jar of everlasting cookies!
