    Muppet Rides

    When I was in Florida, I rode the Haunted Mansion twice. To ensure that I was able to do so, I had to skip something else that I wanted to do, and I chose to skip the Country Bear Jamboree. Since then, I've heard really good things about it. However, my love for the Mansion causes me not to...

    Remember this commerical?

    "R-O-L-A-I-D-S!" Ah, the jamming of one's brain that occurs due to commercial overload. Dave Barry calls it "brain sludge", and he says it also occurs with TV theme songs. I tend to believe him, but I'm certainly not an Adbusters supporter. :)

    Boy, do I have something for you! Go here, and you'll see something kinda close to home. :D

    How do you...?

    OK. Go into your mailbox, and you'll find little check boxes next to your PMs. Check each PM that you want to delete. Then, go down to the bottom of the page, and you'll find a little thing that reads "Selected Messages" with a pulldown menu next to it. Pop the pulldown menu open, and choose...

    Muppet Rides

    Well, one option is to have only two Kermit songs: "One More Sleep 'til Christmas" and "Rainbow Connection". Why only two? Well, in the current Great Movie Ride, there are two sides to the ride. In one side, you get hijacked by a mobster; in the other, you get hijacked by a cowboy. So, on one...

    Your Thoughts: TMS Season 1 DVD

    Exactly. If you're making a big fuss over five lost scenes and specifically noticing that they're gone, what you're NOT noticing is the wonderful entertainment that would be playing out before you. I agree with Sugarbritchez: So what if they cut out five songs. The point is not what isn't there...

    How's the weather where you are?

    I love Jerry Seinfeld's joke on that: "You know that when you're an adult, you have seven or eight appetites. There is no chance of you ruining your appetite, because there's another one coming along right behind it. Sometimes I just eat about ten cookies and then call up my mother. 'Yeah, Ma? I...

    Muppet Rides

    You know what would be REALLY cool? Rather than have an animatronic Kermit singing "Rainbow Connection", have a live Kermit (performed by a real puppeteer) lip-synching to well-known Kermit tracks at one point in the movie ride. "Rainbow Connection", "One More Sleep 'til Christmas", "Happy...

    TA's Year at the Movies

    OK. I've begun my challenge, and have duly created a home site for it. You can view that here. The list of movies that I watch will be put up there, and comments will usually be here. Make as many comments as you'd like about what I'm watching. :)

    Petter Jennings is dead at 67

    Aww, too bad. I also don't watch a lot of American news channels, but I watched Jennings a few times there, and I found him to be a good guy. RIP Peter. :sympathy:

    I just need to vent a little. I'm stressed

    1. Ditto. 2. And what a stupid idea it is. 3. I usually wear concert T-shirts, but golf shirts ain't bad either. 4. So am I. I've become better over the years, mostly after discovering that acting out Robin Williams comedy routines can make a lot of people laugh. :)

    I just need to vent a little. I'm stressed

    Very odd. You're a great guy, so why do you have so few friends in the flesh? Strange indeed. Also, I noticed earlier you mentioned IMDb updates. Is there an entry for your pledge drive? Also, after it's over, would you be able to put up a few pictures? I'd love to see some of your puppets...

    How's the weather where you are?

    Now, you Philadelphians are real lucky. You can walk just about anywhere and find a good cheesesteak. Up here, however, most restaurants (in fact, I'd be willing to say all restaurants) botch cheesesteaks completely. Here's how a cheesesteak looks on most menus around here: See? That's not...

    MC Forums first month and a half

    Well, there is a way to check: Go to the member list, and select "list by join date". Then, count the number of pages with join dates all within the first month-and-a-half, and multiply the number of pages by 25 (I think it's 25 members per page, or is it 30?). Then you've got the number of...

    Non-singing guests

    I think he did one song on the banjo, but whether or not he actually sang is a different story. I know his song had lyrics, but it's been a while since I've heard it, so I'm not too sure.

    Yep, I can take water into class. One very creative guy in our class bought a deep red plastic water bottle that made everything in it look around the same color, then filled it with Gatorade. Nobody knew! :)

    Ooh, a two-parter! I wonder if it'll be as good as the Seinfeld two-parter "The Boyfriend"? :)

    Gum Chewing

    Absolutely. See, I'm at a private school that reaches to the twelfth grade. In high school, you're allowed to chew gum, so long as you don't chew too much of it and you spit it out into a garbage can afterwards. However, in the lower grades, the chewing gum rules are somewhat like yours. The "no...
