Fraggle Rock

This is Xavier.

As part of my process to become an American, I was reading the NYTimes on Sunday morning (online though - nobody's perfect), and came across an article about Disney, who is trying to revive the whole Muppet Show franchise. I followed up with some Wikipedia research about the Muppets, Jim Hansen and incidentally discovered who my wife is: a Fraggle.

My beliefs were then confirmed by Emilie herself, who told me that her friends in high school thought she had a strong resemblance to Animal in the Muppet Show. And it started very early.

Hence, I decided to invite myself on Emilie's blog because I felt compelled to make a relevant contribution. These pictures help to illustrate my point even further.




Note Emilie's position in the background of the picture. Julie is reading nicely. Emilie fraggles.


Again.
