Explorer

Lately, every time I hear or use the phrase “the other day” at the beginning of a sentence, I think of Unlce Traveling Matt from Jim Henson’s Fraggle Rock. He had a unique way of vocalizing that phrase with a kind of happy self-importance, as if he expected everyone around him to immediately drop whatever they were doing and eagerly listen to his fascinating and relevant tale.

I wonder if anybody would recognize it if I attempted to imitate him.
