CNN's Mental Floss retells the oft-heard origins of your favourite Muppets.
I wasn't going to post Surprising stories behind 20 Muppet characters from CNN's Mental Floss blog because I'd already seen it on several other sites, but people keep sending it to me (and seem to be tickled by it) so here it is. Serious Muppet fans have probably read all this before, but it's still nice to see Kermit and co. getting coverage on CNN.
Special thanks to everybody who sent this in!
