The year was 1981 and Jim' Henson's popular Muppets burst onto the big screen. Audiences loved THE MUPPET MOVIE but it was Craig McNamara's keen eye that noted a canny resemblance between certain members of the creative department and stars of the film:
CRAIG adds: Here's a little additional background as I remember it. Deanna O. had pinned up a photo of her boyfriend ("Moosebutt," as I recall she nicknamed him) on the wall next to her drawing board. That cued the three of us to pin our own photos alongside. When that joke wore off, I stuck us below the Muppet photo that had run in the MN Daily Arts & Entertainment section (I think it was "The Great Muppet Caper" that had just come out) and wrote the caption. Jeff (naturally) took it a step further, and gave us the appropriate props.
