Dance your cares away, worries for another day!

Welcome to my Retro Interlude (a.k.a. "blog filler").

I hope you enjoy this profile of my favourite Fraggle.
(N.B. - Please note the apt usage of the word "hooey".)

Matt - The Traveler

After leaving Gobo, his maps, and the only copy of his book "History of the Universe, Part 1," Traveling Matt Fraggle left Fraggle Rock to explore Outer Space. It took him no time at all to make his first discovery - the world "out there" is inhibited primarily by Silly Creatures, multi-sized, two legged beings with bizarre habits.

For instance, by holding an upside-down bowl on a stick, these creatures can make water pour from the sky. Also, they entertain themselves by watching flat Silly Creatures who live inside a box; they feed round, shiny objects to the Pavement Creatures who are rooted to the ground; and they unquestioningly obey the magic Beast with Three Eyes, one red, one yellow and one green.

Uncle Matt records his discoveries on postcards which he sends back to his nephew, Gobo. Gobo considers these postcards to be scientific documents. His friends, particularly Red, consider them to be hooey. Nevertheless, Matt feels he is doing Fraggledom a great service, and he will continue to do so until he can find his way back home.
