    The 'What Song Are You Currently Listening To?' Thread

    I've got David Benoit's "Urban Daydreams" album in the deck at the moment. I remember listening to that one a lot when I was 10 or 11.

    Super Bowl XLII - Patriots vs. Giants

    I did - I'm not really a huge football fan but the Giants are the home team, so had to root for them. Mom called me seconds after the game ended to celebrate.

    The RHLC!

    Yes, the Pied Piper nickname really fits Richard well. As Martin said, "he was a builder of relationships," and that his own two sons adored Richard. And of course, just as the Pied Piper had a group of children following him, Richard almost always had a group of kids in tow when he was doing a...

    Muppet College Dorms: The Next Semester

    Erin: We'll not risk another frontal assault. That rabbit's dynamite. (requiem music plays) Scooter: The Book of Armaments, chapter three. Beige: (reading) And he did hold the holy hand grenade on high, and bless it. And the people did rejoice, and they did feast on fruit bats, and...

    Muppet College Dorms: The Next Semester

    Storyteller: (writing) "It is a ceremony in which silly creatures in armored suits pay homage to an oblong ball made from the hide of a cow, but which is oddly often termed a 'pigskin,' and the spectators yell and scream and devour a ritual feast of fattening foods..." Nora: And that, my...

    The RHLC!

    Nothing, Eddie. :smirk: As for the others, we don't know if they had diminutives of their names. I guess it works for some names and not really for others. And let's not forget such nicknames as "that (deleted) from Chicago." (I wonder if David Rudman ever came up with a suitable comeback for...

    The RHLC!

    Of course he could - after all, look at who was performing him. And so that was Don's swansong on SS...apparently not too long before Richard's swansong on the stage of life. (sigh) Poor Richie. And on that note: you know, I could never picture Richard being called, for short, "Rick" or...

    My New Puppy!

    Good grief, she's pretty. It's the eyes, those big brown "love me" eyes. :flirt: By the way, who's the larger dog in the first picture?

    Please Pray -- Family Crisis

    Oh, no...Beau, that's really awful. I know it's got to be really rough on you and your family. We just suffered a loss in our family, so I sort of know where you're coming from. Hang in there, pal.

    Ever dream of meeting a performer?

    Well, I've met a few of the Muppet crew in my dreams...I've met Richard several times, and I saw Dave in there once...and recently, I had one in which I got to meet Frank and Jerry Nelson.

    If you could meet any Muppeteer?

    If I could meet any Muppeteer, I'd most want to meet Richard Hunt.

    The RHLC!

    It does - and you know, seeing as we now know Richard had a paper route as a kid, it's perhaps a little appropriate that in several photos he's seen wearing a newsboy cap (in addition to reading the paper at any available moment). I mentioned this elsewhere, but newspapers seem to be a fairly...

    Muppet College Dorms: The Next Semester

    (some hours earlier, gang departs for big ten-year party.) (Scooter is wearing a shirt that says "There are 10 kinds of people: those who understand binary and those who don't." Nora has a new set of silver barrettes shaped like 10s in her hair. Erin is wearing a shirt covered in ones and...

    The RHLC!

    Yeah, Sara - trust us, you'll love it. Two hours, twenty minutes and a few seconds of all things Richard. Hey, Richard, can I have a shot of that? I just came from the gym and I'm a little overheated.

    Your Thoughts: MC’s 10th Birthday

    1. Let's see, I stumbled across MC in the winter of '06, midway through my second year of college. I was looking for info on the Muppets - my interest in them had been renewed since we got season 1 of TMS on DVD - and I saw this site come up. And after a bit of puttering around, I decided to...

    The RHLC!

    Yes, I am. Sure, I'm excited and all that, but nervous too about all the changes of life that come with it. I know, it's a shame we didn't see Jim and Richard - but after all, the show's all about the Muppets. Though it would have been fun to see Jim, Richard and Leo shooting the breeze in...

    The RHLC!

    Yeah, I thought that was Amanda - just had to make sure. I saw that season 3's supposed to be coming out in May - and judging the date, it'll be close to commencement for me. Guess I know what I'm getting myself as a graduation present... Oh, so Scooter picked up a bit of cockney rhyming...

    The RHLC!

    "Some website somewhere..." oh, yeah, yeah, she probably means that band of loonies called the RHLC...ever hear of them? ;) And yes, I did notice that Amanda (if she is the one Jane was referring to) is going to be a mother ere long - so, yes, Richard's going to be a great-uncle. He'd...

    Sesame Street Old School DVD's: Not For Kids

    Here's something that'll take some of the wind out of the "today's kids won't understand shows that were made 20 to 30 years ago" argument. A user from Australia just posted a message in the Fraggle Rock forum: his (her) four-year-old son is a huge fan of Fraggle Rock. So there is hope for...

    Australian ABC2 broadcast

    Hi, welcome to the forum, dyson. Fraggle Rock is your son's favorite show? Excellent...there is hope for the Muppets after all! (And so much for those arguments that kids won't understand shows that were made before they were born...) I didn't get to see the original broadcasts, so it...
