Well, this seems like the best of all times to congratulate you on 72, I repeat, 72 sketches in a freakin' row!
Thanks, man. It's getting a little dizzying.
I could see the muppets doing this scene back in the 70s, when they were dark.
I believe RVD has a dolly you could use as the prop. I already amputated the arm this very evening.

Repeated for truth.
One, this sketch has to do with food so I like it, and I really like the names, we chanted "ram" in yoga, it is a very old word.... I of course liked 77 as well...if you expanded this I could see some play between the words tofu and toupee somehow...Yet again, short sketch but very funny!!!!!!!!!!!
I take The Muppet association as high compliment.
