The Muppets painted the ward manila-

THE 2nd extension

There’s another one of those fitbone patients. Isn’t he already tall enough? There should be one of those cardboard mannequins you see at the circus rides to indicate height requirements. If you are longer than the surgical table by a toenail, you don’t qualify.

Ah… but isn’t he a celebrity too… what’s his name? Many famous people are doing this these days.

And even celebrities need an extension as we can see. His family has asked for 3 more weeks! To get him a longer bed.

Has the doctor approved?

Here he comes now. You can ask him.

So doctor grouch, regarding Big Bird’s extension…

Ah nurse Marie, there’s no end to this nonsense, really. We took three hours to make him longer, and they need three weeks for his bed. And look at all these feathers of his… I say no- no more extension. He’ll just have to make do with his old bed.

Erm doctor, I just received news from Sesame Street on the Chinese channel. It seems like they’ve just received a new import of quality bird’s nest.
