Muppets tribute

The GeekDads blog on Wired.com had a post about a Jim Henson, traveling Smithsonian exhibit. The post included these two videos from Jim Henson's funeral in 1990. They are really sweet and the end on the second part made me tear up a little. I'm not ashamed to say it.

It is a little surreal for anyone who has watched The Muppet Show or Sesame Street because you will recognize the voices but the faces just don't match up. Definitely worth a few minutes.





Here are the URLs to the two videos for the YouTube-impaired
