Oh, hey! Didn't see you sneak up on me! For those of you who don't know the Muppets, you probably misunderstand the title of this first post. Come to think of it, you probably misunderstand this whole blog. Because apparently I have a HUGE picture of the Muppets that I can't seem to shrink and it's kind of annoying me. Oh, and did I mention they're posing with WEEZER? Also known as the writers of the song that boasts the same name as one of my favorite Olsen twin movies, Island in the Sun? Dude, Weezer's awesome.
Side note: Do you know the Weezer song "Keep Fishin'"? The video for it is a-mazing and the Muppets are in it?
Another side note: Do you know that I really don't know much about Weezer, like at all? Other than I like 5 of their top hits and happened to have seen their video with the Muppets in it? And happened to have heard their song on the opening credits of the Olsen smash, Island in the Sun?
Continuing. So yeah "Keep Fishin" is this boppy amazing tune, and I always told myself that if I were ever to be on Dancing with the Stars one day, I'd want to do a killer swing number to "Keep Fishin.'"
Yep. I'm a dreamer. I dream big. Apparently I'm going to be on Dancing with the Stars one day. Kermit the Frog will be my partner and Weezer will be playing live. Let's make that happen. I'm hoping this blog will be a big help in achieving this dream.
Promises, promises that I will eventually talk about serious things like the abundance of information I've accumulated in the first week of CAP21's Summer Practicum, but for now, I'd like to show you that the Muppets don't only jam with the rock folk. They jam...
...with the Broadway folk.
And I must say I can't think of a performer who thrashes harder...

than Bernadette Peters; A performer who slaps the bass and strips down onstage crazier...

than THE Liza Minnelli. And finally, can anyone think of a performer who would one-up Ozzy's bat fiasco and eat FOZZIE onstage?? Because I can't. Oh wait, yes I can...

Why HELLO ETHEL MERMAN in an AMAZING headpiece and an adorable and fluffy bouffant! YOU worked with the Muppets, too?
...Well aren't you one lucky biatch.
On that note, I'm off. Folks, you might be wondering, what's the most important piece of wisdom I should I get out of this magical reading rainbow experience I just had? Should I immediately go watch "Keep Fishin'" and confirm that yes, it'd make an awesome swing dance? Should I rent Island in the Sun because let's face it, the Olsens in their tweens were pretty kickass. No ya know, let's face it, the Olsens will ALWAYS be kickass. Should I DREAM BIG and know that I can achieve ANYTHING I want??
All of the above. But I'd say the MOST important lesson you should glean from this blog is that the writer is a crazy mofo who grew up having a crush on Gonzo and who is still pissed off that the pic on top of this blog is HUGE. Like, really really big.
