Recognize any of these folks?

You might not know the guy on the right. That's okay.

That's Jerry Juhl. And he passed away after a short bout with cancer earlier this week.

Here. Read all about him. You know, you always wanted to.

"And, after I wrote the line above, I got to thinking… This is a world with Jerry still in it.

This is a world where someone can laugh at Fozzie's vaudeville jokes on The Muppet Show; or well up when Kermit, alone in the desert in the throes of depression, talks himself into continuing on to Hollywood, not only to fulfill his dream but the dreams of his friends, in The Muppet Movie; or dream of that better future for humanity while watching the Fraggles."

I can't help but love him. Even one of his favorite charities is one I've supported for years - the Save The Redwoods League.

Ah, those dirty hippies. You just can't help yourself, some days.
