Kermit, come down to the A.T.L.! Atlanta, of course.
Steve lives here (last I heard), I go to school here, the Center for Puppetry Arts is down here. C'mon, it might actually give me a reason to get up in the morning.
I know it's Atlanta, but I am a very lazy Raisin. :D
Geez, all the great Henson/Muppet news of the past couple of weeks, and now THIS.
Goodbye, Mr. Juhl. You were always smiling down here, and I hope you're smilin' up there with Jim, Richard, Don Sahlin, and the rest.

If it's any consellation, there was this part in the last hour of the special where Matt Lauer talked about people who did not make the list, and Jim Henson was mentioned and they quickly panned a photo of Jim with the Fraggles.
