Last muffin in my basket--I promise!
Ed, you know "sanguine" means: cheerfully optimistic, hopeful, or confident: a sanguine disposition; sanguine expectations. The word comes from when Hippocrates advanced his theory that there were four humors or temperaments which caused human emotions...
(Is embarrassed by dumb typos, but since I finished and posted at 4ish in the morning, I'm not gonna be too hard on myself.) More to follow this week! Comments? Rants? Lashes with a wet noodle?
Coming up--the Academy Awards where we'll meet Oscar!
Oscar: (emerging from trash can) I don't...
If you're just dropping in, be sure you caught the last chapter....
Chapter 123: Comings and Goings: Airports, Hotels and Bars
Chad scuttled in the back stage door, hopefully unobserved in all the after-show comings and goings, and slipped along the hall to Piggy’s dressing...
At the thrift store the other day, I saw a lady who was checking out with about seven Hawaiian shirts in various sizes, including one for a baby.
"Family reunion?" I asked, and she laughed and nodded. My family did the Hawaiian shirt thing a few years ago...a whole park full of rednecks in loud...
Okay--I have to add this, since I have claim to parental intelligence. In one of Mercer Mayer's WONDERFUL "Li'l Critter" books, a new kid moves into town with his family. His dad is a turtle, his mom is a bunny, and he is as cute as a button with his bunny ears and his turtle shell. (Well...
I have a lot of "strays" that don't actually fit into my timeline. (I have about six different proposal stories alone!)
I don't worry about it too much, although I do have what Moi (Sorry to horn in on Miss Piggy's trademark phrase, but I didn't know if you would be able to tell I was...
Cleaning out my files and my imagination. Just a little piece of muppet fluffle....
Bargaining Chops
Kermit banged after her into her dressing room, his bowtie dangling.
“That’s that?”Kermit cried. “What do you mean, that’s that? Nobody says that’s that except me, and I most definitely...
Whoa! Looks like all of the scenery-chewing won't be figurative! So glad the Sosilly guys weren't so silly enough to leave those yay-hoos out where they might start trouble! Good riddance to bad monsters, and all that!
And Camilla has my undying respect for FIGURING OUT what Gonzo stunt was...
Um, something patriotic comes to mind? Think you could dish up a romance for Sam? I know that's a tall order (a tall, bald order) but it would be such fun to see Sam and the Missus, um...cavorting in a patriotic way.
Or maybe a watermelon seed-spitting contest with Skeeter and anyone who is...
Egad! (gasps in horror!) Does this mean I'm actually going to have to (gulp) finish Kermie's Girl one of these days? (Chapter 122 and still counting....and updating....)
Oooh! Drive-ins, scary movies and tongue-tasting kisses! I'm IN!
What a fun little story, and I rather like the way the movie theater (and you, Ed, darlink) solved the problem of not everyone having cars. It's so much more fun to be all alone in a crowd with your sweetie that crammed eight...
Chapter 122: Husbands, Wives and Others
Scribbler dived into the waiting cab and barked out an address. Grinning, Sparky shot the little cab forward through the mostly-quiet street, but they soon hit traffic to make up for it. Scribbler knew better than to try to give directions...
I thought that was nicely done, especially given the scene restrictions you placed on yourself by having only one (Human)-speaking character in the story. Always interesting to see what Muppet Labs are up to.
Speaking of socks.... I am not making this up: Now that school is out, I am going...
What about Annie Sue as Jubilee? (I DISLIKE how, in the X-Men movies, which I liked okay, they managed to mash two very different female characters into one composite Jubilee/Rogue. Rogue was woman with a sad past, and Jubilee was still raring to get started on her butt-kicking career, and...
Oh, fooey! Sorry--I took too quick a look and assumed that Beaker and Bunsen were arguing siblings instead of arguing arch, um, friends? Of COURSE that's Magneto! (They're probably going to take away my inflatable Wolverine figure for being so careless....
Ohh! How thoughtless of me!
Kermit is Cyclops (the leader and self-appointed control freak); Piggy is Jean Gray, portrayed in a dazzling blaze of flame (so I guess it's really Piggy/Phoenix); Bunsen is Professor Xavier while Beaker is Juggernaut; Animal is Wolverine (who really probably...
