ATLANTA (Reuterus) - The Center for Puppetry Arts in Atlanta has agreed to accept "The Muppet Show" collection from the family of creator Jim Henson, with one exception.

Tyrone, the reformed convenience-store-robbing character from Sesame Street, has been asked to respectfully find another retirement home for himself.

"Where should I go," asked the racial minority. "Back to Africa?"

"This is racism -- pure and simple. I served my time. Hell, I never actually even committed a crime! They just threw me in jail because I looked guilty. And now this?"

Tyrone claims that he has remained the black sheep of the group, despite being released from jail with time off for his exemplary behavior.

Neither the Henson family nor the Center for Puppetry Arts could be reached for comment.
