Jim Henson turns 78

[fozzieisfunny]

Wherever you are, Jim, I hope you fully understand how the world misses your magic and touch on our lives. Even though I'm still quite young, watching your works and contributions to our celebrity-driven mass media is refreshing, and makes me feel young again. Your legacy still lives on in our hearts, and as long as the Muppets are how you envisioned them, it's like you really never left. Happy Birthday, Jim!

Ditto!! Jim Henson was one of the best people of the 1970's, as well as one of the great geniuses of our time.

Happy 78th, without Jim I would not be on this forum, and this forum would not exist.

That's another good reason to celebrate Jim. He seemed like such a nice guy.

I can't even explain into words how much of an inspiration this guy is to me.

Every time I look back at one of his many previous projects and several behind-the-scenes videos, I just wanna shed a tear and thank him for everything that he gave us and the fact that his legacy still shines bright today.
