Yeah, sorry about the Bert mug. Should've gone with Ernie instead. Highlight somebody with real people skills and a good sense of humor, as opposed to that perpetually annoyed, angry-at-the-world yellow muppet reject.

As for Osama, he just happened to be in the Children's Television Workshop the day the picture was taken. I heard it was Oscar the Grouch's day off, and Osama flew in from the middle east to fill in. After all, Oscar is one angry, hateful SOB. So, it takes one evil genius to fill another's shoes, I suppose.
