Sam and Friends Book Read our review of the long-awaited book, "Sam and Friends - The Story of Jim Henson's First Television Show" by Muppet Historian Craig Shemin.
Stage whispering: Ed, Sweetie--did you miss your star turn saving the day in Clumping and Thumping--was just trolling through and couldn't tell if you had noticed you saved the day....
Thank you, Java and everybody else who is reading! The contract that she signed with her old friend was actually called an Exclusive Right to Represent. It really is a Real Estate Contract and the point was exactly as presented--to make confidentiality legally binding--and that's all it's...
Thanks for reading, guys! (and gals!) I've been meaning to write this for a while. The year I went to college, I had a dress remarkable\y like the one Piggy is wearing in the picture--and so did every other girl on campus. I'm honest enough to say that Piggy brought a savoir faire to the...
Hi--I'm guess what I'm really looking for here is a conversation about writing thoughts. (Translation: I'd like to hear ideas and opinion--not laws.) If anyone interested in writing muppet stuff would like to comment/join in the conversation on any of the following points, I'd love some...
Chapter 81: Opportunity Knocks Piggy for a Loop
“Hey, Piggy. You look great Honey.” Marty opened the door for her and took the unlit cigar out of his mouth to kiss her—an effusive greeting from Marty.[/FONT][/COLOR][/SIZE]
“Aha,” Piggy preened. “Vous are too kind.” She looked at his face...
Chapter 80: Mixed Signals
Filming rocked along, and the weekend came—and went. Piggy had not intended to film her close-ups that weekend, but when Kermit insisted he’d take the weekend off with her if she didn’t want to come, Piggy grudgingly consented to come down to the studio and let them...
Brace yourselves. I've been trying to get ready for this for a while.
There are two chapters to follow, one short, one long, but I think they need to be separated.
(Aw-thanks, Sweetie--I miss you too! But I'm baaack now!)
Chapter 3
The house was not afire, but Robin was absolutely beside himself when she emerged about 90 minutes later in a hostess gown and scuffs. Piggy took one look at his anxious face and dragged him over to the couch.
“What on earth?”...
[Ooh! But I'm not DONE! (Insert maniacal laugh here)]
Chapter 2
So began a tradition that had not altered materially even unto today. Robin came and went according to the schedule that best suited all the family, settling into his own bedroom in the big house and spending long...
Err A-Parent (Heir apparent)
(for Matt and, of course, Jerry)
Piggy stepped out of her tap shoes as soon as she got off stage, stretched her complaining toes out before her and let out a long sigh. Good to be done for the week, she thought. Even my pantyhose hurt. She bent down...
Yes, D.E.A.R. (Drop Everything and Read)
(An affectionate tribute to the American Library Association’s READ campaign poster featuring Kermit and the marvelous Miss Piggy)
“Absolutely not!” Kermit insisted. “You are not wearing that.”
Not for the first time when Kermit...
And yet again....
Chapter 79: What You Don’t Know--Yet
Piggy looked toward the hostess in time to see her dinner date arriving. A comfortable-looking woman in a leopard-print skirt and black sweater looked in the direction the hostess pointed, saw Piggy and waved. She slid...
Chapter 78: Goodbyes and Bargains
“Saying goodbye stinks,” said Rizzo morosely. He hugged Mabel’s ample waist fiercely, then stood back for Gloria Jean and Gonzo and Amy Lu to do the same. The mother hen mole had texted Scooter early in the AM to let him know that there would be...
Um, I have to do a couple of things. Again. (Those of you easily bored and just skip this post and move on to the next story post immediately following.)
First confession: I've apparently been using the wrong version of the word "palette" when I talk about Kermit gritting his, um, teeth...
Chapter 77: Some Auld Acquaintances Should Be Forgot
There were, of course, reviews. Notwithstanding the charms of Mrs. The Frog, Kermit was out of bed at an ungracious hour, picking up all the papers. Mabel caught him going past, and promptly snagged, fed and caffeinated him, but Kermit’s...
Okay, I confess that I did not read ALL 220 posts in this thread before writing, but here's my two cents worth, in bits and pieces.
I miss being able to "see" who is in the same thread with me. I LIKE being able to see where folks have just been when I look for them. (Although it's maybe just...
Chapter 76: Ch-Ch-Ch-Ch-Changes
It was probably too much to ask that everything go smoothly with the second new show in less than a month, but Kermit would have asked if he’d known who to address the question to. As it was, his fretting was groundless, and the new songs and the new show and...
The author apologizes in advance for this interruption, and will--immediately following this post, post more story, but there is so much going on with this story that I've got to inject a couple of things.
Thing 1: (Gosh! I feel just like Dr. Seuss!) I LEFT SOMETHING OUT! I was doing an...
Beau! Beau! I've MISSED you! (OK--so I'm the one who disappears for long periods of time, but still....)
I saw the trailer for the first time yesterday and I was not AT ALL unhappy. When Kermit says to Piggy:
"Maybe you don’t need the whole world to love you, you know? Maybe you just need...
Chapter 75: Feints and Blushes
On Christmas Day, Kermit had gone to bed on a full day, an over-full stomach and a load of worry. Scooter’s worries of the day before have all been alleviated by Sara’s acceptance of his ring and his proposal, so he was prepared to try to cheer and...
