Hi Beth, I would agree it's a good idea to talk to her about it in a gentle, respectful way (you're such a caring, kind person [as she being a lieflong friend of yours would know] so that should be easy for you to do :) ). I would stress how much you care about her and that you just want to...

Happy belated birthday to you my friend. Glad you enjoyed it!

Thanks Vickers! And congrats to you on your Giants beating up the Cowboys in Dallas! (You must have been in bed last night instead of watching the game, eh? heh heh)

Ah ha, glad you mentioned that, Bear. Cuz I checked the tv guide earlier and it didn't have the SS special listed (I thought). But "Independent Lens IS listed. :) But it's on 10:00pm EST here on the PBS Philadelphia channel. At 9pm it says "National Geographic" will be on. The Allentown PBS...

Glad you appreciate Acres, Bear, and that you now know that Ziffel isn't just some silly username I made up. :D

Just noticed I am at 1999. So..... thought I would post the milestone 2000 here. Woohoo!

Yeah I just noticed a new pm while I was editing my avatar back to Fred Ziffel from the blue aardvark. That's amazing timing how just after I post for the first time in a very long time at the Green Acres thread that you had pmed me about that very show!

Hey just wanted to mention that at youtube there's some classic "Green Acres" clips there including one with Fred Ziffel. :) Just put "Green Acres Ziffel" in the search box and about five classic clips will display. The first one is with Fred Ziffel seeing the opening credits. This way some of...

Thanks you two. And yeah C for number one would be a lot of fun to do, D'snowth! But I'm afraid it would be asking for trouble.

That's wonderful news! I hope it makes it to the top ten like "The Muppet Show season one" did, even if just for an hour.

Yeah both SS and Mr. Rogers are primarily aimed at children (obviously). But no question SS has things that adults can enjoy too and references to things that only adults would recognize (like parodies of movies, songs, shows, that were not always just children's songs, nursery rhymes, etc.) And...

I was really happy to actually get to see one of my all time favorite clips that I've mentioned several times: Ernie counting to ten and starting over again constantly! Isn't that a hilarious one? I love it and Bert's progressively increased frustration. Too bad it doesn't have him banging his...

Been stressed a lot lately from work. Being a custodian at a large manufacturing company in Philadelphia leads to almost daily aggravation from rude and selfish people. There are a lot of nice people but, since it is so big, there are also inevitably some not so nice people to contend with. It's...

Just about the funniest Ernie and Bert skit to me, as well as funniest moment of the entire SS show, is the skit I mentioned a few times before at the forum: When Ernie shows Bert he can count to ten but keeps starting over. I detailed this one back in April 2005 at the "Favorite Bert and Ernie...

The Ernie and Bert skit with the pizza and grape juice is there now. This is one of those skits where I felt sorry for Bert. It's a very similar skit to the licorice whip candy one. But I guess I found the licorice one a little funnier. The ending had that funny fast paced closing music, whereas...

WOCL! You're a funny funny guy thar Nick! It even cracked me up how you started with "heh" and then added "Heheh....." afterwards. HEE HEE HEE It's funny how if you put "Ziffel" in the search, it all comes up with the Ziffels from "Green Acres" but variants like "ziffeled" and "ziffeling"...

Well Muppets Rule, we had a good day yesterday with both the Skins and Pack getting road wins. So the "Basement Bowl" game this year can go to Detroit and Houston instead! And Vic, you must have decided to watch the Giants game yesterday, eh? I figure you must have for them to fall behind...

That's it, that's the key, "speaking the truth in love" (Eph. 4:15) and with "gentleness and respect" (1 Peter 3:15). Jesus is our great example (1 Peter 2:21; Ephesians 5:1,2) to follow, for He shows us the right way to do all things. And not only did He save us who believe in Him from the...

Yes I know, that's what I just said in my post: :)

But I would add, heralde, that it is also a sin to NOT be angry at injustices. Sins of omission just like sins of commission. In fact, when people basically just shrug their shoulders when something awful happens, I think God is grieved at the apathy. Whereas when Jesus was angry at the Temple...
