Hey, I just thought I'd post about some random Muppets that have truely influenced my life.

Ok...so, they haven't influenced my life per-say...but they *have* given me a very catchy catchphrase which I actually find myself using all the time.

Remember at the beginning of VMC, there's a long shoot of various Christmasy things happening (such as a lecherous old man watching two Muppets kissing behind a newspaper). Anyway, at one point there are two kid Muppets looking at some toys in a shop-window, and one says, "Cool Trains" in a totally cool voice.

Now I don't know which Muppeteer did them, but whenever I use the word "Cool" I imediatly find myself saying "Cool Trains," or "Cool Crab" or "Cool Shoes" or Cool something, always in the same childlike wonderment that he said that line in.

Are there any Muppet quotes you've picked up through the years that are less known than the obvious "Who's your tailor I *love* that outfit?"
