    I'm Back!

    Hello Muppetsdownunder, nice to meet you. Sorry life has not been fun, but I do hope that your return will bring a great deal of joy to you. Somehow this forum really does have its way of making people see the good that exists, and not all the blah that seems to have been happening. ;) I...

    My fiancee left me

    Hi Anders, I was very glad to read that you are doing better contrary to all the ups and downs life has been throwing at you. Here's hoping that you will continue to see the joy that also comes with life. Take care, and here's wishing you all the best. ~Yva

    What are your stories?

    Oh thank you. That means a lot to me. My husband and I have him on a dresser in our bedroom. Kalle is very soft and cuddly and I am quite fond of him. I don't make too many plush bears, I've started making them from Mohair about fíve years ago. The mohair made here in Germany is some fo the...

    How's the weather where you are?

    I can't complain...But, lucky for us we're not going to any open air concerts this week. ;) How are the folks along the Gulf Coast fairing?

    Pre-Order Fraggle Rock: The Complete Series DVD

    I actually put a lot more stock in customer care than I do in who has the lowest prices. My big grievance is when a store toots its own horn, then they deliver what they say in those annoying ad circulars. If a store has knowledgeable salespeople, who don't treat me like a blithering idiot...

    FanFic Library Index

    IMO indexing by author's title is a good idea. That's generally how most are done, and I think it will make finding the stories a lot easier. But, it's your call. You've been around a lot longer and probably know the best possible way to go about it. Will look forward to seeing how it's...

    Pre-Order Fraggle Rock: The Complete Series DVD

    When I've had preorder status on Amazon stuff, I have always gotten email notifications when the price changed. That happened when I ordered the last Harry Potter book on preorder. About two weeks before the book was due to release, they sent me an email saying that they would not be charging...

    FanFic Library Index

    Hey Count, this is really good work you're doing with this. Hope that everyone's ideas get used for the index, but maybe we should be a bit patient while you get it put together. Just keep at it, and I'm sure that when you get all of this up, that it will be fantastic. :D

    RedPiggy's Comeback King Saga (a re-write)

    Up to Chapter 13 Hi again, first of all, thanks for the PM and the clarification, that was very nice of you and it really cleared up a great deal of my questions and I was able to start reading again. Once I understood everything, I really settled in and was able to read through several more...

    What's Wrong with Sweatpants?

    Perhaps, but I got even by doing nothing except showing up at my class reunion. It was rather amusing. I had just returned to Houston from having spent Christmas in Germany, getting officially engaged, and I come back to a situation that was too delicious for words. The girl that used to...

    RedPiggy's Comeback King Saga (a re-write)

    Through to Chapter 9 Hi, I have made it up to the start of chapter 10, so the reading is going along alright, and I thought it was time for another few lines update on how this is shaping up for me. First of all, the interludes sort of throw me for a loop. They are amusing and neat ideas...

    RedPiggy's Comeback King Saga (a re-write)

    Just a suggestion, but maybe you can post them and stick them at the top of this forum. A newbie's guide to fan fiction here. :) That way the writers don't feel too stressed about their stuff not getting read after they get finished. If there's an easy link to the stories as in an index, then...

    FINALLY a Complete Series Set I DON'T Oppose!

    Holy Balogna Sandwiches, Batman! :D That many seasons? I thought that after their movie came out that they had stopped making that show, I guess they haven't. I did check the prices of the DVDs for the Simpsons two days ago when we went shopping, and they are still outrageous in price.

    Pre-Order Fraggle Rock: The Complete Series DVD

    Peace, love and radishes for all. :D I don't really think that there is a political idea behind the Gorgs and such, but I do think some of your ideas are funny. Someone needs to write a fan fiction with some of these, they are fun.

    RedPiggy's Comeback King Saga (a re-write)

    Read through Chapter 3! Hi, I am only leaving a review to the first three chapters, as that is how far I have read. I will say straight up, I love this. I don't know why I didn't start reading this gem of a story sooner. I am only three chapters into it and I am really feeling myself drawn...

    What's Wrong with Sweatpants?

    Not originally. I grew up in Texas, but I have lived over here for the last 13 years. My husband, who grew up here said that it is pretty much the same here, too. I think today the pressures are a lot greater than they were back in the 70's and 80's when I was in school.

    What's Wrong with Sweatpants?

    Boys, oh gross. Tehehe. Just kidding, guys. :p Actually I was never into the dating thing when I was in school. I never had a high school sweetheart, and most of the guys I knew were too immature for me to give them my attention (much less affection). I didn't meet anyone until I was close...

    Scenes from my imaginary Fraggle Video Game

    Cute idea. I like the idea of a fraggle game. If they released on for the Nintendo DS Lite, I would go and get it immediately, if not sooner. Your powers of description are really good, you really put me right in the middle of the action. I've never read a story like this with a game, but I...
