I adore Kermit the Frog, I suppose it's pretty hard not to notice. I'm surrounded by Kermit both at home and at work - I collect all sorts of Kermit merchandise, ranging from a 5 foot tall stuffed Kermit, to the Kermit slippers that I wear every single night.

Today is Kermit's 50th Birthday, and in honor of the occasion NPR's Morning Edition had a tribute to my favorite green frog that they have placed online for everyone to hear. So go, listen, and enjoy the look back at Kermit's history.

  I love Kermit.  And I did NOT know it was his birthday.  Damn it.
  But I will hereby mark my calendar.  
  Steph, I feel the same way.  And dang it!  I didn't know Target carried Kermit slippers.  I'm overdue.

  Who knew?  Not me.  I have a Kermit the Frog tattoo and more memorabilia than a grown man should.  Why are there so many songs about rainbows and Kermit's is the only one I know...

  You're the only place I heard about his birthday.  You would think it would be celebrated more.  He looks great for his age!
