...Boy, did I miss a lot just by not signing in yesterday. First of all... I need to give a HUUUUUUUUUGE <HUG!> to Kev, Jamie, and D'Snowth. Well said, gentlemen. Well said. Thank you, Kev and Jamie, for the reminder of how much mods DO, and just how tough it can be to be one. I always try to...

We have had an animated muffin before. Muffin Man. His sidekick was a giant Z called The Ziffler. It seems to be lost now... But don't worry. I have a feeling we'll be seeing him again soon...

<Cracks up at the last line> <Hugs Sweetums!> I've been meaning to read this story. I'm so glad I finally did. And allow me to take this opportunity to say that I envy your talent for the short story. Of my three minds, about half of one can even grasp the concept of a short story. Clearly...

That is the sort of thing that's part of what makes Muppet Central, Muppet Central. If a thread is dead or close to it, there's never been much of an issue before about taking that as an opportunity to start throwing penguins and muffins and bagels and confetti and water balloons and hijacking...

I. LOVE. All the aliteration in the first paragraph. And the rest of the story is just wonderful, too. I love the tone, and your story-teller-voice... And, I swear I could see fiendish Frank Fraggle storming away from the party. I love his cape... And that he switched to a plaid shirt at the...

I totally second that. Personally, I've always just avoided threads that looked religious in nature, because, well, I'm Jewish, and I feel pretty awkward in a religious discussion that assumes everyone participating in said discussion is Christian. I don't know if that happens when religion...

But why make sense when it's more profitable to make dollars? <Ahem> Sorry. You know I can't resist. Yes, you did, because as of yet there is no little italicized note at the bottom of your post saying "Last edited by Beauregard at such-and-such time and date." :halo: I can certainly...

The Dorms are a little tougher to get into, true. It has been going on for years... but it more-or-less starts over once a year. At the moment, Dorms are technically closed for that starting-over period... Ed (The Count) is in charge of them, so I can't really say when they'll officially...

Robin: <peers over side of roof> What's he saying? Lisa: It sounds like... "Low frown of hope." ...Wha... Robin: <Frowns> That doesn't make any-- Rowlf: <Clamps paw over Robin's mouth> Dubloons! Chef: Hee de shkurmee see de seeeayn purdepul um de heer. Rowlf: <double-take> Lisa...

You're welcome, and-- I second that! (Again. What can I say-- I'm Half Prawnie. I'm bound to agree with him at least half the time. :p) So many posts around here lately have felt so empty, with very little (if anything) to say. Now, sure, just about every member is bound to make a relatively...

I SECOND THAT! MC is all about the FUN, right? Or at least, MOSTLY about the fun. I do believe that the things Prawnie's suggesting here-- and a little ACKNOWLEDGEMENT from the higher-ups-- (Kev, Ed, you know we love you... But I mean a little higher...) would ultimately help improve the...

Awww, <Hugs Arianne!> Goodness. Hope the internet situation gets better. Unfortunately, I probably won't be able to post any more this week... I had a test today and yesterday, and now I get to spend the rest of today doing math homework and insane amounts of reading for various classes so...

*Lisa has been sitting on the roof, watching. Offers bowl to Ryan. Popcorn? Rowlf: Bowl's empty. Lisa: <Looks in bowl> ...Oh. Chef: Ya bur de bo de poppety poppin corn de poppendy... <reaches for popcorn bowl> Lisa: Oh, you're makin' more? Sweet. <Hands bowl to Chef> Chef: Yuppen de moor de...

<Blushy> Aw, thank ye! And also... that's a fun word there. And I do know it wasn't your intention. I just started thinking about it, and realized it's only been a little more than three years... and doesn't even feel that long! :p

As for length of stories, I think it depends on the story and what the author is comfortable with. Personally, I would love to write shorter stories... but my stories very strongly disagree with me on the matter. :p (My signature, "My mind's own mind has a mind of its own," is a rough...

Huh. I've never really looked at third-tier characters that way. When I do try to write them, I'm usually paranoid about getting their "established" character right, which is difficult at best to do, since their established character isn't very established. I suppose my only real attempt at that...

AGREED. Personally, stories just sort of come to me and DEMAND to be written, and it just feels so empty if I change it for anyone but me. If the story GROWS from something someone says, well, that's one thing. But CHANGING it-- rerouting the plot, switching scenes, changing a certain...

First of all, Yva, I MUST stand up and applaud every last word you said-- ESPECIALLY about writing what YOU want to write. A few times, I've started to change a story because of what my readers wanted, or what I thought they wanted... I have regretted it every time. ...Well, with the exception...

...Y'know, I'm not a big fan of cherries. :p But I'm glad you're enjoying. I am, too! It's good to be writing in a notebook again, and posting as I go, and writing filler to get the right chapter size, and doing multiple rounds of editing, and... Ah, it's good to be back. Now... What happens in...

Chapter Six One week later, Kermit was not back on stage for the next show, but sitting on a favorite log, home and safe in his own swamp, plucking out a quiet tune on his banjo. It was evening in the swamp, which usually meant one of two things. The first was that most everyone in the...
