So, the TiVo picked up a movie the other day: Into the Night, starring Jeff Goldblum and Michelle Pfeiffer. Tonight, I decided to watch it; the opening credits listed a few interesting names, including David Bowie and the incomparable Richard Farnsworth, so I was ready for some prime ’80s comedy caper cheese.

After the movie had been on for about 45 minutes, I started poking around the Internet a little, and checked my Facebook newsfeed. I noticed my sister had taken a Facebook quiz — “Can you name the Muppet characters” — which I had taken several days ago, scoring 100 percent. It’s kind of a tough quiz. Would you recognize Link Hogthrob? Lew Zealand? I did.

As I checked out my sister’s results, I remembered being a little peeved that one of the “correct” answers was misspelled. It’s “Crazy Harry,” not “Drazy Harry” — but that’s the answer I picked, because all the others were even further away from correct.

I scrolled back to the top of the page, noting that I’m the only person among all my Facebook friends who hit 100 percent on this quiz. The only other person who came close was Travers, with 15 out of 16. Which is not at all surprising . . .

Right as I glanced at the photos of Kermit and Fozzie next to the quiz ranking section, I heard a familiar voice on TV — Jim Henson had a cameo for about five seconds, as some random guy talking on a phone. That’s it. Apropos of nothing, no ado about anything. Jim Henson, suddenly there, suddenly gone, during the moment I looked at Kermit’s photo online. I doublechecked IMDb to be sure, and yep — it was him. When was the last time I saw a Jim Henson cameo in any movie, ever? What are the chances?
