Everything's Better With Muppets ...

If you've got three minutes and a soft spot for the Muppet Show, I think you'll agree with me that, yes, "Everything's Better With Muppets", that's for sure. Your toes will be tapping by the 30-second mark, I promise.

A week ago a friend and former show skater commented on getting a bunch of Facebook skaters together to do an ice show. Lots of people wrote on his wall: "Count me in", "Let's Do It" or "That Sounds Fun" ...

So I came up with a plan, a theme - Muppets. Why haven't we seen Miss Piggy and Kermit on the ice? Wouldn't that be a great pair number? I think the male would have to be Miss Piggy in that case.

I don't know what the licensing would cost for that show, but I'd do a limited run and glom on to any publicity I could with the 25th anniversary of the show first airing and a new muppet movie coming out next year for 2011.

Voila - open with this number and close with the Rainbow Connection and the final minute of their first movie. And as Mickey Rooney and Judy Garland may have said, "I think we've got a show."

Have a great weekend!
