Art I Own...
"Jon's New Hair"
2010 by Jordan Deschene
Unlike last week's post which is art I've done, this is art I own. I've managed to get a good little collection going, so every now and then I'll share one here.
This one is by Jordan, my good friend and brother at Paris In Plantsville, and somehow the subject matter looks really familiar...

Posting... Every day(ish)
Gabe!
I think it's funny that people who play role playing games have rules for social skills within the game, but never really learned many useful ones in real life. Hahaha...
Me and Tricky hamming it up on a break
Jim, Russ, and Jaime puppeteering (and Shane too, but you can't see him)
Learning the lines...
Brie came, took pics and even ran the camera!
Chris with Mel
Shane is unamused, but Rachel is...
Jim, most likely making a ridiculous demand
Oh the puppets
And more puppets....

Russ and Liz!!!
So I'm taking a break this morning. A break from choosing between a Kermit the Frog tie and a white shirt, or a bright yellow tie and a bright orange shirt.
Shirt and tie... Somebody's getting married!
Liz... I'm glad I was there all those years ago to egg Russ on to ask ya out when you started working at Borders...
And I'm glad he did...
Russ... You're a brother to me, I love you man. Totally hetro, since you are getting married.
Someday you two will have the most eco-friendly Muppet looking kids, and I'm going to teach them armpit farts.
Happy Birthday to the men who are Kermit...
Kermit and Rowlf Perform Rainbow Connection
at Disney Legends Ceremony This Past Summer...
Jim Henson was inducted as a Disney Legend this year...
This was inconjunction with "The Muppets"
coming out on Thanksgiving,
and with his 75th Birthday,which would have been today.
The video above is from that event.
Jim did a ton of amazing things.
Too many for me to list here, that's for sure.
One thing I do want to mention is the talent he harvested.
He wasn't afraid to give new talent a chance.
The video above is absolute proof.
Kermit the Frog and Rowlf the Dog were two of
Jim's characters as a performer.
Legends say Bill Baretta started out working at the Sesame Place amusement park
and Steve Whitmire took a train from Atlanta to New York
and knocked on the Henson Company door...
Bill is now Rowlf, and Steve has Kermit since 1990.
And that's awesome.
So, Happy 75th Birthday Mr. Henson...
And Mr. Whitmire... Happy Birthday to you too!
Keep those arms up!
