If This is a Muppet Skit,What is it about???

It was about a strange land with unusual creatures. The story presented the Geefle who had long arms to reach the nectarines, but could not bend them to reach his mouth (a rather tragic figure) and the Gonk who's arms could reach his mouth, but were not long enough to reach the nectarines. They cooperated; Geefle grabbed the nectarines and threw them to Gonk and Gonk gave half to Geefle.

This also had a typical Muppet ending to the sketch when they wondered what to call what they had just done.

Gonk: Let's call this co-operation.
Geffle: No, let's call it Shirley.
