Ante Up

Hi. I have a tape I want to play...

Since I'm in one of those "I have no actual content" periods, I thought I'd share with you a video I've been enjoying which I (and the readers of Gaper's Block) were hipped to by Troyal.

Muppets 4 Life.

"It's ok. You're not that bad of a person."

And now, the second Jim Henson Wilson's Meats marketing film. It's post-modern satire at its muppety finest.

Last week, while listening to WBEZ I heard about the Lincoln Park Zoo's snow leopard , Yiet Yang, being euthanized. The commentator stated that the animal "...will be remembered for her feistiness and disdain for human beings."
I think that's how I want to be remembered.

And now, more muppet advertising.
This video is six minutes long, but it's worth it for the violent punchline toward the end.
