Follow-up re Disney Call
"...It may just be a question the person didn't know how to answer..
Nope - this person at Disney was very 'adamant' and KNEW
what to say - despite our efforts to ask this almost 3 times...
When we asked, all we got was "you'll have to leave a message"
and THEN...
Follow-up - REVISED MESSAGE
We called the person at Disney this afternoon
who would know the official answer re Steve...
..we got hung-up on...
Seems like they're trying to hide something...
I'll keep you posted...
Follow-up
Also under Steve on the IMDB is this on the top:
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1204342
What's THIS all about?...and could he be working on THIS?
Follow-up
OK:
I spoke with the 'Henson Company' New York office earlier today and they 'believe' Whitmire is still doing Kermit, but they're not certain as to why he was not at the MTV awards...
The IMDB on him indicates that he did 'STATLER' last March 20th
on the Jimmy Fallon Show/NBC...
I just spoke with The Jim Henson Company's public relations
and they didn't know the answer YET...but they said they
would look into it anyway for me - regardless as to them not owning
the Muppets anymore...
It'll take a little more time to get an answer - I have faith!
:)
frogboy4, you're RIGHT ON here!
'IF' Whitmire has now officially QUIT doing Kermie,
there should have been a press release about it...
..and FURTHERMORE, it would be a desecration of
Jim Henson's legacy - AND memory - to even do so...!
I have Twittered and Facebooked: 'The Jim Henson...
Not sure, but Steve ('where ever you are man!')
is gonna hit the 50-year-old mark - next week!:

Anyone still have these video clips?
I missed this one years ago and was wondering if anyone
out there still has copies of what was linked here...
Let me know - thanks much!
Also:
Steve turns 50 on Sept 24th, 2009...
Maybe this web page can help per a specific blog about him:

If anyone has any difficulty calling long distance to DISNEY - or to any OTHER
national company regarding the whereabouts of Steve Whitmire, let me know
any or all of such phone number(s) via my e-mail - and I will get to the very bottom of this:
geepers@gmail.com
Thank you all!
