Uh... Come again? Methinks you might've answered your own question, which is why I ask in order to clarify.

Oh, OK... The HQ's aluded to would be the various clubs' individual domiciles.

Like for example, the RHLC has its own HQ decorated in erm, however it is you've kept the place in Richard-esque shape so far up to now. Then, there'd be additional doors that one could walk in and out of, from one room that houses the RHLC, down the corridor, and over to the room where the JNC would be located. All the Muppeteer fan clubs' HQ's are here, a good place for each to have an equal space under one roof.

Hmm interesting! I guess I'd understand better once I saw it. Just as long as it's still clear and easy to maneuver. :smile:

She's hoping the same thing. But Sweetums is just fine.

My dad and brother kind of favored using Greek letters to name their computers - or occasionally, names from Star Wars. I'm the first one under our roof to name a computer (my laptop) after a Muppet (Scooter). And Mom followed suit when she got her new office computer.

Hehe, that's a very cute tradition, MN. I'm actually more from the Pee Wee Herman school of naming things. If I want to talk to my laptop, I just call it "Lappy" lol. It's fun though, it creates a real comaraderie. :wink:

Hmm interesting!



Lol yeah, actually the whole "Scared" segment is about how Steve and Dave were the practical jokers of Fraggle Rock, always sneaking up on people and scaring them. It was good to have that set up because then it's very obvious why Richard immediately looks at the two of them following the confetti incident, lol.

MN, did you want to tell about the sugar incident? I guess we did talk about it a long time ago. Lol
And I read that Steve and Dave played many of their jokes on Jocelyn Stevenson - who wrote "Scared Silly" as a means of coming to terms with all the jokes.
'Course, if you're going to work with the Muppets, you've got to be prepared for a lot of general chaos. Steve and Dave playing jokes, Richard setting off a water fight and spouting off one-liners, and all the spontaneous laughter during the read-throughs...

It's like I said once - during the Muppet Show years, I imagine more than one teacher or chaperone spent a lot of time telling the kids, "Now, the Muppet people are very nice to let us in, so let's all be on our best behavior and not disturb them while they're hard at work..." only to open the door to find Jim and the gang goofing off on the set.

I could imagine.

"Teacher, I thought you said they were hard workers...LET'S PLAY WITH THE CRAZY MUPPETEERS! WHOOOHOOOO!" *They grab sock puppets and join in*

LOL!
