All the elements are there, the mischievous grin and conspiratorial eyes, the wily Pink Panther glances and the tiptoe moves of a grasshopper unfolding his limbs in sneaky silence. Henson's natural lightheartedness also invites joker attacks, such as the occasion a few weeks back when teammates covered his car in Post-it notes. (Winston-Salem Journal)
