Happy Would-Be 75th Birthday, Jim Henson!
If you haven't already spent a couple worthwhile minutes clicking around with the latest and greatest Google Doodle, you might be unaware that today marks Jim Henson's would-be 75th birthday. The ingenious creator of "The Muppets" continues to posthumously receive awards three decades after his death in 1990. Henson's influence on today's puppeteers is undeniable, and his craft will continue to inspire puppet lovers perpetually.
Today's video lunch is a dish that people of all ages can devour. Cheers to the legendary puppeteer and enjoy a few tastes of Henson and his beloved Muppets in action. We warn you, nostalgia may swallow you whole.
And let's not forget the upcoming "The Muppets" movie, hitting theaters this Thanksgiving.
