Muppet Hats of the Day: Annie @ Wattlebird made a whole bunch of knit Muppet hats in honor of the newest Muppet movie’s recent release.
She was only going to make a couple, but once she started, she just couldn’t stop. You know how it is with Muppet hats.
If you already know something about knitting hats, you can use Annie’s guidelines to make your own.

Say What Now of the Day: On the Fox Business show Follow the Money, in a segment called “are liberals trying to brainwash your kids against capitalism,” host Eric Bolling and conservative Media Research Center fellow Dan Gainor risk incurring the wrath of loony education-huggers everywhere by bravely excoriating that long-venerated bastion of Communist agitprop: The Muppets.
Among other sacred trojan horses exposed by Bolling and Gainor: Cars 2, Captain Planet, and Nickelodeon’s Big Green Help.
Teaching our children to care about the environment? I think I’m going to be sick.
