• The Newsman : Here's a Muppet News Flash. Dateline: London. Mrs. Lola Thomas of that city has just finished eating an entire diesel tractor.

  [a screen turns on, revealing Twiggy as Lola Thomas] 

  The Newsman : Tell me, Mrs. Thomas, why did you do such a thing?

  Lola Thomas : Well, the doctor told me I had an iron deficiency, you see, so I started on a couple of doorknobs and the occasional typewriter. But there's nothing really quite like a good bit of diesel tractor where you chip and pave, is there?

  The Newsman : What an extraordinary feat. I mean, how was it done?

  Lola Thomas : Oh, medium rare or thereabouts.

  The Newsman : Is this lady making a fool of me?

  [on the screen, Twiggy bites into a microphone and savors it]
