Nice to see you back, Rax. And Marty, hope the antivirus software works out - it is annoying to have some worm or malicious application lurking on your hard drive. Don't feel like it's strange at all, Rax - most of us here never got to meet Richard while he was alive, but we got to know him...

(All of the gang, save Scooter, is out on the lawn.) Erin: (reading the Shipping News) Anyone know where Scooter's gotten to? Nora: (sipping a black raspberry milkshake) He called and said something happened at the theater, but he'll be back here soon. Storyteller: (sorting through conspiracy...

And then a year and a half after Jim's death, Richard Hunt died as well. It is strange (not to mention really sad) how a lot of Muppet cast and crew members started dying in the late 1980s and early 1990s.

That is really cool. It's good to see the Henson crew getting behind some really important causes in the world, like the fight against HIV and AIDS. First there was Kami on Takalani Sesame, and now there's No Strings. Like I said, it's really cool.

In room 7, the gang has pretty much finished unpacking, and now everyone's in the common room, eating popcorn and playing a storytelling game. Storyteller: Yes, that's right...now, then, does everyone understand the rules? Beige: No, but that never stopped us before. Pass the popcorn, will ya...

Yeah, the two of them nearly drove Jocelyn Stevenson mad with their jokes. So she worked her frustration into the plot of the FR episode "Scared Silly." You're right, heralde - it was pretty brazen of Dave to sprinkle salt (or was it sugar? I forget) into Richard's mouth while he was sleeping...

Oh, brother. And is he saying that people who read books are out of touch with reality? In my opinion, those who read books lead richer, fuller lives - and good books bring people together.

Well, that wasn't a very long wait. So here's room 7: The room is divided in half, and the northern-facing half is divided again into two bedrooms. Each room has a shared closet. Common space: Cream-colored walls with dark brown paneling, and some dark brown carpet. The furniture here...

Hi, Kim, how's it going? I just put in my application, since I'm planning to return with my usual bunch, so I'll wait until Ed gives me the all-clear. Besides, we're contemplating doing some re-decorating.

"Now we know who's really afraid of everything!" It's amazing how quickly everything fell apart. It's business as usual on the set, and then the confetti drops. Someone (I think it was Richard) yells "Oh, my God, what happened?" Someone else says "This is not funny." And then the whole set...

I remember back when I was in college, during finals week the school would organize late-night "emergency study breaks." The campus police would park a cruiser, light bars going full tilt, at a given spot, and there would be a table with coffee and donuts for us. And trust me, those were greatly...

I know; I've wandered down to Friends and Family a few times before remembering that we've moved. I guess we'll get used to it. (sets out orange juice and donuts)

No offense to the Twilight fans around here, but I don't see any appeal in those books at all. Bella, from the looks of things, is way too much of a clinging vine.

Let's see...among others, I'm working on "The Telling," by Ursula Le Guin. I really love what I've read of it so far. Also finished up "Time's Eye" a while back. I checked out "The Samurai's Garden" by Gail Tsukiyama from my university library a few years ago. I loved the book, but I forgot the...

(gang's heading out for a picnic) Storyteller: (checking basket) Does anyone know where the cherry turnovers got to? Beige: (hunting for sunscreen) Dunno, maybe they went off to watch the cinnamon roll. (chorus of boos and jeers) Nora: (filling thermos with lemonade) The ranger's telling...

That's okay, heralde, I understand. :) I think the problem is (and this is strange coming from me) that in some cases there's an information overload. Because of 24-hour news networks and the Internet, we're bombarded with so much information all at once. Personally, I find that I get a more...

Now wait a minute, some of us happen to make a living off the news that people read. ;) :) I know the feeling, heralde - it's weird having to look for the thread up here when I want to scroll down to Friends and Family. But I guess we'll get used to it - and the sticky status does help.

(gang is across town helping with the RHLC move) Scooter: (checking clipboard) Now, that giant wall quilt with "Your Face" on it needs to go over there, the box of old Herald Tribunes goes in that corner, and - who's got the epergne? Storyteller: (holding orange juice pitcher) Beige does -...

(wipes off film of maple syrup and chocolate syrup) Plus, no risk of us getting moved farther and farther down if people don't post for a bit. I just hope everyone remembers that we've moved. I hereby raise a toast (glass of OJ) to the RHLC in its new home, and long may it run... Oh, one other...

Well, it's after June 1, and the voters have spoken. Guess it's time to break out the boxes and the packing tape and the hand trucks and all that.
