Heh heh heh.. Sorry if I so happened to sound angry and Envious in my first post here. I didn't mean it as such. I swear, the UK is where to go when you love the Muppets. They are so popular all over Europe, and less people seemed to care until this year. I mean we have commercials (I didn't see any except for the Master Card ones) the Kermit balloon and now the Macy's Kermit doll.

So I appologize if my little joke sounded more like angry whining. Certainly not my intent.

Now to find a way to go to the UK, and bring all these empty suit cases. They'd be full when I am done.

What are you talking about, people like the muppets in Europe. Anyone I talk to has, maybe, seen Muppets from space and Treasure Island, that's it. And one of my friends thought I was basing my Gran puppet on Gonzo. (It is based on Miss Piggy)

Anyway. I now have the Beaker, Pepe, SC, and Animal stickers, and today I plan to enter the compertition.

Well, ya know the one I want...CROONCHY STARS!
(*fun fact...the original name for the 1988 Swedish Chef cereal was going to be Stoopid Flakes)

Oh its no secret the Muppets are actually respected and considered hip in the UK. I doubt MCM would be like it was had it solely been made for a European audience. Not saying they all wear minute man coatails and powdered wigs, but I doubt their as weened on mindless pop culture to such a degree the US is.
