Don't really know if this should be a thread on its own or if it should be placed witin any other already-existing thread, but here's the point.

On yesterday's episode of the Daily Show with Jon Stewart, there was a nice Muppet-related joke. Basically, there's one of the members of British parliament speaking out on the current push for war in Iraq. The scene comes back to Jon who immeditely goes "Hurrumph, hurrumph, hurrumph" quickly within three different runs of the grumbling. Then he goes on to say the punchline, which I'm posting this:
"Of course, the hurrumphing you heard there at the British parliament, as always, provided by the 5th Lord of Waldorf and the Duke of Statler."

Hope you enjoy, and you can catch the full report on the March 18, 2003 episode of the Daily Show with Jon Stewart to be repeated today, March 19, at 5:30 PM EST on Comedy Central.

HA!!!! That's great!!! I always like to see clever Muppet references as opposed to really bad Sesame Street or Kermit the Frog jokes.....
