    The RHLC!

    I know - the usually cheerful and unflappable Muppet performer was clearly in some mental anguish at that moment. I mean, he's certainly holding it together in public, but think about it - he's just lost several friends, including Jim, and he himself isn't long for this world, and he doesn't...

    Flight of the Golden Albatross: A Muppet Mystery

    Oh, you'll see a lot of familiar faces in the next few chapters. I will say this much...in chapter five, our heroes get some help from the land of bubbling tarpits...and later on, keep your eyes open for some very familiar passengers on board the Muppet Express. ;)

    The RHLC!

    I know; in heaven they should be able to let you sleep in. (looks up) But Richard, get some rest, okay? I need you and Jim to be on a train with the other Muppet performers sometime in the next few days. (it's for the fanfic I'm working on, you know) "Hey! Pick up the tempo, will you? I like a...

    The RHLC!

    And as we've said, heaven probably got a little wackier when Muppet crew members started coming in. I don't believe that being dead has stopped them from being silly. Jerry: Oh...what a headache. Jim: Too much to drink last night? Jerry: No...when I woke the others up this morning, they all...

    Flight of the Golden Albatross: A Muppet Mystery

    *** Chapter Four and a Half: An Editorial from Sam the Eagle Ladies and gentlemen, distinguished readers, I must apologize for the shocking display of crime in that last chapter. Let me assure you, as an attaché… “Gesundheit.” That is my occupation, not a sneeze, Officer Fozzie! Anyway...

    Muppet College Dorms: The Next Semester

    Erin: Okay, so Scooter, Nora and I will have the cheese omelets...what about you two? Beige: Just a few crushed mustard-flavored Doozer Sticks. Storyteller: I'll have...green onions, peppers, garlic, bits of tomato, some radishes... Scooter: Better throw in a few antacid tablets as well...

    Flight of the Golden Albatross: A Muppet Mystery

    "What's the matter, Statler?" "I feel really sick..." "What is it, the ship?" "No, it's this story!" And now, it starts to get a little interesting. Over to you, Scooter. *** Chapter Four: This Bird Has Flown On a scribbled-on page in the notebook of Scooter R. Hunt, reporter...

    The RHLC!

    Well, gang, I'm on New York time, so let me post the first RHLC message of '08. Happy New Year, everyone. (up in heaven, on the Muppet crew's cloud) Joe: (at piano) Should auld acquaintance be...uh, what's the next line? Jim: (chuckle) Be forgot and never brought to mind. Christine: What's...

    Muppet College Dorms: The Next Semester

    Erin: There we go. Scooter: So who gets to go next? Erin: That would be you, gofer boy. You get to narrate the theft. Scooter: Oh, boy! Nora: Why don't you take a break? It's New Year's Eve, after all. Beige: Yeah, but I don't feel like watching the Times Square chaos... Storyteller: Well, let's...

    The RHLC!

    "It wasn't as much fun, though, as working Junior Gorg, who is one of the easier characters I've ever developed because he came a lot from me." Yes, the big, shaggy, 473-year-old grower of radishes and hunter of "Fwaggles" is very closely connected with the tall, trim, curly-haired (and not too...

    Muppet College Dorms: The Next Semester

    Erin: (at computer) Okay, Storyteller? Beige? I've worked out a solution. Beige: To the absence of Fraggles in the story? Erin: There will be Fraggles now. At some point, in the dining car on the train, the Chef's going to appear with a tureen of radish-potato stew, which is served to a large...

    Flight of the Golden Albatross: A Muppet Mystery

    Ah, Ed, you picked up on the albatross symbolism too? Good one - and I've also read "Rime of the Ancient Mariner." All right, everyone, thanks for being so patient. Here is chapter two. "Flight of the Golden Albatross...think it'll fly, Waldorf?" "I don't know, Statler, sounds like a real...

    Flight of the Golden Albatross: A Muppet Mystery

    Yeah, I'm kind of wondering why it does that now whenever we post stuff from a word processing program...but ya gotta admit, it's loads faster than just re-typing everything into the reply box. Chapter two will probably be up tomorrow...and it is narrated by Kermit. Stay tuned...

    The RHLC!

    I know - and besides, Junior's played by Richard Hunt, so he can't be all THAT bad, can he? Chasing the Fraggles or playing with them is kind of Junior's raison d'etre, so perhaps he would be bored as king...and correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't he get rid of the crown in "The Gorg Who...

    Flight of the Golden Albatross: A Muppet Mystery

    Gonzo, let them off the hook...you'll appear soon enough! Well, the train here is called the Muppet Express...but the bizarre names of the cities along the route (Greater Burden, Mis-En-Scene, etc.) make up for the ordinary train name. And now, I'm turning it over to Nora for chapter one...

    Muppet College Dorms: The Next Semester

    Storyteller: (writing) It is a festival in which silly creatures get together, drink lots of fluids that make them dizzy and giggly, and croak out old Scottish ballads... Scooter: Oh, they do more than get dizzy and giggly, Storyteller. Erin: (typing at computer) They do things that they...

    The RHLC!

    I've been away for the weekend, visiting my grandmother in NJ. She's feeling better, happily, but she's none too pleased about her roommate at the rehab center. I've also been trying my hand at another Muppet fanfic. Ah, Scred. A face only a mother - and Lily Tomlin and Gilda Radner and Queen...
