    Slackbot's text sketchbook

    Oh yeah, there's this thread. And here's an update to this thread. ***** Self Help by Kim McFarland ***** It was a pretty typical day in Fraggle Rock. People were playing and singing and swimming and otherwise enjoying themselves. One Fraggle was more "otherwise" than most. Boober's idea...

    Slackbot's derpiest puppet

    Thank you! I will be bringing some puppets to DC this year. Not sure who, although I'd be surprised if one of 'em wasn't Skeeter.

    What made you roll your eyes today thread?

    On the news and at the workplace they're talking about preparations for inclement weather, showing big mounds of salt and sand, talking about possible office closures, etc. It's been in the sixties and seventies for the past few weeks, it was fifty this morning, and the temperature is supposed...

    Fraggle Shoes Coming Soon

    Um... $125 a pair? How dope. Those do nothing for me, and I'm silly enough to have a set of the Fraggle shot glasses. You want me to wear Fraggle footwear, make some of those shoes that look like feet, toes and all, and make them look like Fraggle feet. Then I will buy one in every color...

    Disney Infinity

    Wow, Muppets are tiny in this game! This looks like an interesting idea, but I'm not into this kind of game. I look forward to hearing reports from those as do play it.

    Fraggle fic: The Minstrel's Path

    Heh, yeah, this was a cheater chapter, but it would have been silly not to tie it into this story. I did do some rewriting, though, to make it fit into the continuity. Heh, Murray trusts Cantus, and is in it for the long haul, but even he can have his fill of mysticism and puzzles, so he...

    Fraggle fic: The Minstrel's Path

    One of the themes of Fraggle Rock is environmentalism, which includes recycling. So, with that in mind, I present... ***** The Minstrel's Path Part 20 by Kim McFarland ***** Murray was all eyes and ears as he peered into the cavernous Gorg castle. The light, which came from a...

    Anybody know were to get replicas?

    No Zoot replica was ever made. Only Kermit, Animal, and Gonzo. If you want a Zoot, you'll have to have him custom built, I'm afraid.

    Fraggle fic: The Minstrel's Path

    Reed originally appeared in A Wandering Heart. Cantus is a lot more open-minded now than he was at the beginning of the story, isn't he? He's taking one of Niven's Laws to heart: There are beings who think just as well as you, but differently. Now he doesn't try to fit those differences into...

    Fraggle fic: The Minstrel's Path

    I have that MUP3 too. I listened to it several times while deciding who would play it for the Doozers. At first it was only Cantus and Murray, but then I recognized what passes for a bass line and added Brool.

    Fraggle fic: The Minstrel's Path

    Cantus is up to about 2'6", I'd guess. For a Fraggle he's pretty tall. I'll bet you can hum the tune Cantus wrote.

    Fraggle fic: The Minstrel's Path

    Another chapter! I has written it! ***** The Minstrel's Path Part 19 by Kim McFarland ***** The tunnels were cool even now, at the height of summer. For Cantus, Murray, and Brool, it was comfortable and nostalgic. Brio and Balsam found it pleasant, if strange. Cantus had led the...

    Stage Performance Focus Puppet or Puppeteer?

    Color me jealous. I never saw the tour. The production I saw was by the Horizon Theater, an Atlanta outfit. I went in, expecting something of "regional production" quality, and instead I was blown away by the show. For some reason they used different designs for the puppets, which...

    Lots of MUP3's, Wanna Trade?

    Wow, thank you!

    Lots of MUP3's, Wanna Trade?

    I have all of the original FR songs. Thanks for the offer, though. The animated series was not simply an animated version of the TV series. Oh no, we didn't get off that easily. It was a completely different beast. I'd suggest you see it for yourself, but I'm not that vicious. Let's...

    What's the Deal with Pajama Fashion?

    I've never seen this in Georgia. Just saggy pants. That said, I've gone around in pajama pants before. But it was at Dragon*Con, where they were hardly the oddest things around, and they were Muppet PJ pants. My fashion statement got a lot of grins and compliments.

    Lots of MUP3's, Wanna Trade?

    I can't believe I'm asking this... Does anyone have the songs from the animated Fraggle Rock series?

    Fraggle fic: The Minstrel's Path

    I have the DVDs, so I guess I could rip the songs from them, but I'm a lazy twerp and would rather snag existing files. Plus, well, animated FR. It's not like anything about it is worth much effort, is it? I'm still embarrassed that I wrote a fic for the series. Hopefully I'm the only person...

    Fraggle fic: The Minstrel's Path

    I'll see what comes out of that idea. It might make for a fun little fic. After the end of this series I'm gonna need comic relief big-time. Boober has some good songs. My faves include Party Hard/Who Knows What You See, Yucky for Sure, Get Blue, I Sniff the Rose, and, yes, I'm Never Alone...
