True, they might have been getting ready for a crowd scene; it was almost definitely a rehersal, since they were looking at a stand with lyrics.

I love playing those trivia games, in several areas I definitely clean up. One time I was a finalist in a Beatles trivia contest. My Dad says it's "useless trivia", but I disagree, lol, I think you should be proud (though it's even better if you know the context of things beyond just straight facts). :smile:

You know, I don't know why I didn't think of this before, lol. It's so obvious! That's probably not Wembley in the photo, that's the look-a-like Wizard! Yay!

Good job Richard and Wizard friend, you managed to fool all of us! Lol

Well, he fooled the Fraggles, and they were looking at him up close - we were looking at what the camera saw of him.

Another Muppet-related dream, and it's a bizarre one. I dreamed that I was on some web site, looking at photos taken during Jim's memorial (and there were close to 50 photos), and the next moment, I'm standing on the steps of St. John the Divine, right after the memorial, talking to Richard and the others. There was other stuff that came after that, but it's a little blurry.

Wow, 50 photos of the memorial service, and then actual contact. Something tells me a lot of our dreams stem from our own wishful thinking, hehe. It is fun though, and at least you weren't cut off too soon (as so often happens in dreams!) :smile:

Yeah, you can certainly feel Wembley's frustration and helplessness during those moments. You'd think they'd be able to recognize the voice, at least...and it is kind of bizarre, how Gobo doesn't even recognize his own roommate.

And that's true about dreams stemming from wishful thinking. One dream book I read says that dreams are influenced by what's on our minds when we're awake.
It was definitely after the memorial, because of the shirt Richard had on - in the dream, it was a lightweight tartan, in forest green with some blue and purple added here and there.

I know that's certainly true for me.

But I really love those trivia games. Somtimes I just like leering rather then knowing everything, heh!:big_grin:

Well it's the classic "Superman" syndrome. It's a rule; people on TV aren't able to recognize their friends when they're in disguise. Even if said disguise is flimsy and blatantly obvious to real life people like you and me! Lol

Yeah their voices don't end up sounding much alike, though the Wizard does a decent approximation of Wembley's little laugh, heh heh!

Yeah I guess it gives the mind the opportunity to go places it wouldn't get to go to otherwise. I've always wanted to research into the ability to control your dreams. I've been able to do it a little; like I have occasionally been able to stop a dream while in it. But I would be interested in studying that further.

And in that same vein, nightmares are a reaction to some kind of stress or anxiety we're experiencing in real life. Example: two years ago I dreamed that for a final exam in one class, I had to get up and give an oral presentation - and I arrived completely unprepared, and the teacher wouldn't let me make it up. :eek: (I'm sounding like Hermione Granger, aren't I? :wink: ) And that dream came just after finals, as I recall.

About the Wizard and Wembley - I guess we could say that was the closest Richard ever came to performing Wembley. He does do the laugh, but I wonder how he would have done Wembley's little grunting noises?

Well, sorta big announcement.

Me and Stephen have parted ways. I've ended the engagement. And it's due to my new job. He would not at all see what I was meaning when I had explained to him this:

"I have a new job, it's a job that has good pay ($8.65 per hour), great hours, (32 hours per week, just 8 hours shy of fulltime); wonderful benefits (even though it's parttime, I get FULL benefits; medical, dental, life insurance, planned retirement), and it'd make more sense if you could move down to South Carolina so I could keep my job."

He wouldn't budge a freaking inch! He kept telling me how I could just get as great a job up there, in CT. How I'd be more then likely to get a wonderful job, with full benefits and all such nonsense up there. I told him, more then likely if I suddenly quit my job after not even 6 months and moved up to Connecticut, I'd have a really bad blotch mark on my resume. It would hurt rather then help. Also, he's done NOTHING in the way of trying to either get a job for himself, or go to college so he can get a better job.

I've been on him about for near onto 4 months now. He's not done ANYTHING. My mother has said this about what was going on pertaining to that:

"Love is great and all, but love dosn't heat the house or pay the bills."

And sadly, I started to agree with her, after we had had our upteenth arguement about moving. -_-; After about a month of arguing about various things, I finally started the before-mentioned job. I adore my job, and I do not want to give it up.

Even if I worked part-time my entire time there; I can retire in as little as 12 years.

12 years.

I'd retire, full benefits before I was 35 years old.

Yes, I'm going to give up that job to move up to Connecticut. I don't even think Junior Gorg would give up something that awesome and fulfilling. He'd see he'd have to stay with it to get it.

Also, 2 weeks before the actual first day on the job, I'd started to become friends with a fellow co-worker, Robert. He's nice, funny; and he enjoys a lot of things that I do. He was actually going to ask me out on a date the first time we met, until I had made some comment/question around the lines of "can you include your fiances on your insurance?" He realized I was "taken" and didn't go any further.

Well, Robert and I are officially going out, marriage between me and Stephen is not happening; and I have a boyfriend who finally has a stable job (same exact job as me, but fulltime), and actually loves me for who I am, and what I believe in.

Last plus to it: He lives only 15 minutes away from my house; not 15 hours away, and he dosn't plan to move anytime in the near future! =D

Edit: Plus plus - Robert is what I call a "relaxed catholic", and I'm what I call a "relaxed christian". We both basically have the same religious beliefs. Stephen was atheist, and to be honest I didn't really believe in what he believed in (or didn't believe for that matter), I just kinda....ignored it for the most part. And I didn't like it one bit.

And my parents adore Robert. For the two-or-so weeks Stephen was here; my parents grew to hate him. One ten minute meeting with Robert and they really like him. So, first impression has really got them happy.
