    I watched way too much of the muppet babies as a kid not to get that reference. WAY TOO MUCH.

    That's one show I'd like to see now just so I can tell whether it was actually a decent show or if my standards were just really low as a kid.

    A couple weeks ago, I watched Muppets in Manhattan. Then I watched Coming to America. Two very different views of NYC... Speaking of which, I wonder whether Columbia has made up its mind about me yet...

    Boy am I lost or what? First 'stud', then complement--->substitute--->Muppets--->where next?

    I get the joke about complements and substitutes but everything else went over my head. Would be grateful if someone enlightened me.
