I remember in about 1998 watching this skit, about Al who runs an Alphabet garage, getting letters ready for the road. A lady (female Anything Muppet) comes in with a J that won't jump. It will jog, jiggle and play jazz, but it won't jump. So Al gives it a "jump start". Which makes it jump all over the workshop.
I saw this in 1998, according to Boober's DB the sketch dates the 1991. DW McKim on the Muppet newsgroup once kindly identified Al as being puppeteered by Jerry Nelson.
But what I would like to know, is who puppeteered the lady owner of the J?
There is a reason I'd like to know. As soon as I saw the skit, I couldn't help noticing that the female AM, was only really using it's Right arm rod, whereas most Muppet characters, if only using one arm use their left. Thus whoever is surely puppeteering left-handed. And I'd like to know who this mystery puppeteer is, because it seems might another left-handed, one we don't know about?
