KERMIT PHONE

The Muppets had a meeting.

It might have been Fozzie, but one friendly fuzzy suggested Kermit needed his own executive phone.

After much deliberation and many late night design collaborations inside the secret Muppet Laboratories, something wasn’t working. And Kermie wasn’t talking.

Hans Carl Clausen, aka “Mr Model”, was called.

He was asked to “speak” to Kermit. After much careful deliberation, and some unhelpful suggestions from Gonzo, Hans modified the chair design, made Kermit’s leg a little bit wider, and fluffed the cushion Kermit was sitting on making it much more comfortable. All of which permitted the wires and mechanisms that actually allow the phone to work have the necessary room inside to properly function.

Suddenly Kermie was a very hoppy Frog. He couldn’t stop croaking about it.

And Miss Piggie was quite pleased. She can call Kermie any time she desires.
