Rascal

This is Rascal. He’s the real reason that I love puppets so much. My brother had Harry, Rascal’s twin, and we would make up stories and dress these guys up in all sorts of funny costumes. I still remember the heartache as I watched a chunk torn from his leg after it got caught in my bicycle chain (I was trying to re-inact the Kermit scene from the Muppet Movie).
The twenty-five years since that wonderful Christmas morning are definitely showing, but he remains an inspiration.
Of course, Harry was the more handsome of the two, even if his nostrils and tongue kept having to be re-attached…I guess that comes with old age…
Their agent keeps calling to see if they could get a camio in an upcoming “Space Trip” episode. What say ye?
