kenny's posse

Allow me, if you will, to introduce a few of Kenny's closest friends, co-conspirators and cohorts.

First up is Edgar the Elephant.

Edgar spends most of his time hanging out in Kenny's crib and is known for his exceptional snuggling technique, as well as his listening ability (must be those ears). Edgar enjoys napping, surfing, and sharing blankets. Edgar dislikes being thrown in the air, tossed over the side of the crib, and people who immediately assume he's a Republican (he's a registered Independent).

Next we meet Lenny the Lion.

Lenny prefers to spend his quality time in the basement play area, though he has been known to frequent the pack n' play in the living room. Lenny is known for his sense of humor (he loves to tell bad monkey jokes), acrobatic abilities, and strong but silent persona. While Lenny gets overlooked a bit more than he'd prefer, he does elicit a good "roar" from Kenny every once in a while. For the record, Lenny is indeed a Leo, but he claims to have "very Gemini tendencies." I have no idea what that means, either.

Finally, we have the penguin who runs the show behind the scenes in Kenny's room, Pablo Escobar.

Now, I know what you're saying, "But Evenkeel, that's Pablo from the Backyardigans, not a notorious South American drug kingpin." Well, that's debatable. In the meantime, I will say that Pablo enjoys playing the xylophone while watching reruns of Entourage, cultivating his exotic hat collection, and daydreaming about trips outside the house. On the downside, Pablo has a quick temper and often sulks when Kenny elects to play with other members of his posse. Personally, I try not to let him out of my site, but you just can't track a penguin all of the time, unless you get a device that I don't know how to use and can't afford. Oh well. Pablo would like the world to know that he's actually only a mediocre swimmer, but an excellent long distance runner.
