The Muppet Show was one of my favorite shows when I was little. And, strangely enough, my Dad loved it as well. He would be as excited as I was (if not more so) when it came on.
So, it gave me great joy to see that the FAO Schwartz “WhatNot Workshop” went back online two weeks ago.
What’s a WhatNot? Quoting the website:
Whatnots are those zany-looking extras you see in all the Muppet productions. Wacky! Fun! Totally unique!
The only thing that tempers my enthusiasm is the $129.00 price tag.
I wish they sold Ralph the Dog. Or Sam the Eagle. Hell, I’d even settle for Fozzie.
Wakka wakka.

Wow, am I glad I got back from my trip(s) just in time for this (more on them later):

I’d be much more entertained by “Night Driving Safety Tips Week with Keith Jones” or “Narcolepsy Week with Stacy Smith”.
God, I missed Pittsburgh.

You gotta wonder if it goes through his mind during the interview…
“Gotta put the biscuit in the basket… biscuit in the basket.”
