Yes, I know it's gauche to bump one's own story. Apologies. But I hoped perhaps people would remember the Muppet role in our gaining independence from Britain, and refrain from tying anyone of the felted persuasion to their bottle rockets.

:concern: Bottle rockets are for wusses anyway! Gimme a Roman Candle!

Uh...right. Except him. He likes it.

Just a friendly little bump as requested, I enjoy learning some of the Muppet Revolution's history, other than when a bunch of the SST gang tried electing the national bird. It's almost as unique as finding that the original flag sewn by Betsy Ross was the veil one crosses to reach the realm of the underworld itself. :search:
