    Auditions for T*K*O...

    I have too much stage fright to be a recurring character, so I'm not auditioning. But hope to continue to make occasional guest appearances on season 2! By the way, I probably have one of the best resumes for this job. 20 out of 37 threads I started have received 5 or less replies. And looks...

    Have you seen celebrities in person?

    And there's nothing wrong with multiple threads. I just had recalled mentioning my celebrity experiences a few months ago so thought I'd put a link to that post instead of retyping it all out again. :) And that was a good find about that Eb comment. That would be so cool meeting him. And for...

    Have you seen celebrities in person?

    There was a simliar thread by HPDJ this year, "What celebs have you met?" that I posted my few experiences. Click here for that. And yes. meeting Eb (Tom Lester) from Green Acres is hardly pathetic. It would be a real honor and thrill!

    How's the weather where you are?

    Very nice day here. 82 but low hunidity (28%) and a beautiful clear blue sky. Tomorrow is supposed to be 88 but then finally the more seasonable 70's for the weekend!

    Tom or Jerry?

    It's Tom AND Jerry. :) Tom and Jerry is one of my 2 favorite all time cartoons (The Flintstones is the other). I love the Fred Quimby MGM ones from the 40's and 50's the best. The Chuck Jones ones from the 60's were ok. I love the golf and tennis ones ("Tee For Two" and "Tennis Chumps") and...

    Remember this commerical?

    Anyone rememeber this Chunky candy bar commercial from the early 70's? A boy is on a couch sitting next to his dad watching tv. He is eating the Chunky and in saying how good it is he keeps saying it's "thickerer". His dad corrects him each time saying, "Thicker." Finally his dad says...

    New Electric Company TV Show and DVD

    And then a really cool song one was "Punctuation". Couldn't make out all the words back then but some of it was, "Punctuation. punc punc punc punctuation. They are ...... to make a sentence help you make more sense." In between the song in parts a guy would say a sentence in various ways -...

    There once was a hand...

    This neat sketch also came up a little on the "Sesame Street films" thread. I never had Noggin (it's been mentioned that it was on one of the Unpaved shows) but recall it almost word for word. I thought I'd try to re-enact what I recall: (Light blue background) Narrator (Skip Hinnant)...

    What year was this song made?

    1977, Princeton. Probably my fave songs of his are "Piano Man" and "Uptown Girl." "Tell her about it" is real catchy too.

    How's the weather where you are?

    I heard Dallas is likely to get something from the storm Rita. Hope it won't be too horrendous. Philly was another 85 day today but more humid. It was mostly cloudy but never did rain (yet). They had been saying it would rain a lot this afternoon. Breakfast: scrambled eggs and toast...

    Yes I was so happy and surprised to see that comeback by the Skins! Two bombs from Brunell to Santana Moss. And I think one of 'em was on a 4th down and I think they had earlier converted on a 4th down. Talk about winning this game by the SKINS of their teeth! :D So now I'm 9-7 for week 2...

    The New Orleans Saints game is starting right now so it's time for me to get in front of the tv. Just wanted to mention that ABC said they are going to be doing a fund raiser for the Katrina victims throughout tonight's game. That's really cool.

    Yeah my Skins beat your Bears in week one and then Chicago did a nice turnaround yesterday in clobbering rival Detroit. Those are my picks for tonight's games as well. I went 9-5 in week 2 so far and that really boosted me at Yahoo Pro Pickem'. I gained another 27,000 to go from about...

    How's the weather where you are?

    Another member from New Orleans. You, GeeBee, and all the folks there and nearby states are in my prayers, peachesncream. Here in Philly was very warm (85) and a bit more humid. And we're forecasted to be stuck in the 80's for quite a while. What I hope doesn't happen is that we stay above...

    New Electric Company TV Show and DVD

    Don't recall the Short circus one but I do remember the "Shy Sheldon, shy Sheldon, come out of yuor shell". Haven't thought about that since back at the time. :) Remember a bizarre song sung by Jim Boyd called, "Trying to live in a trumpet"? He was shown as a tiny sized man inside a trumpet...

    New Members: Please Post and Introduce Yourself

    Welcome aboard, Andrew T. NIce to have another muppet and SS fan among us. :) I was about to say, "Movie money for you, eh ryhoyarbie?" But movies cost more than that so instead I'll say, "Concession stand money for you, eh ryhoyarbie?" :p

    Your Favorite Cartoons on Sesame Street

    I've seen the one mentioned here before about the fisherman who isn't catching any fish and then the clam tells him the reason is because he pulled out all the plants. Then the clam explicates by saying, "Everybody knows that little fish eat plants. And the big fish eat little fish. So if there...

    You are correct, Rosewood. The nine was painted on the road. Good job describing that. It's one of the number painting segments I recall pretty well.

    Threads with a lot of posts

    Thanks ryhoyarbie. I like your "new movies coming out" thread too. I have always liked movies but usually only see about 3 or 4 per year in the theater these days. I might go see "Flight Plan" (released Friday the 23rd). That looks good. Edit: Oh and thanks also for that, Red Dragon. And I'm...

    Yeah I correctly picked Pittsburgh to beat Houston, too. As well as Cincinnati and Chicago to win. But didn't expect these games to be as lopsided as they were! No surprise Philly routs S.F. It was surprising Jacksonville had Indi shut out till the 4th quarter. And I guess slightly surprising...
