    Fic: Muppets from Earth

    The Count: I wish there were summaries on the library page so each title wouldn't be like a book with a blank cover. That'd be a big task to expect one person to do, though. If authors provide you with short summaries, would you be willing to post them? The general forum rules honestly...

    Fic: Muppets from Earth

    Re KG: Ah, OK. I haven't been here very long, and there library is intimidatingly large. I don't know where to start because the titles often don't give much hint as to what's in the story, and there are no story descriptions. :confused: I'd rather be nagged to produce more than see silence...

    Fic: Muppets from Earth

    Lil0Vampy, thanks! I love it when it brings good employment news! Heh, I figured it'd be pretty obvious to anyone with half a brain. Which explains why Sam was so easily snared. I got them from "Before You Leap." Have they been mentioned anywhere else? I don't even see them in the Muppet wiki...

    Fic: Muppets from Earth

    It's Friday the 13th! I just found out that it's 99% certain that my contract with the SEC will be renewed for another year, so to celebrate here's a big honkin' chapter of... Muppets from Earth Part 9: Liberty and Justice ***** It was a cheerful and sunny morning. The day began at the...

    Guess who's getting a movie this time?

    I believe that sound I hear is Tex Avery doing the uneven parallel bars in his grave.

    Fic: Muppets from Earth

    Oh, now you're just being silly.</JohnCleese> The name I have in mind is one he shares with at least two other Muppet characters. Or more, depending on how you count. His mother didn't name him after people who had not yet become famous by the time he-who-would-be-known-as-Dr.-Teeth was...

    Fic: Muppets from Earth

    *chuckles* No, the good Doctor's name is not Clyde. It's something that probably nobody would guess, but hardcore Muppet fans would probably slap me inna face with a fish for. Don't worry, there'll be more for Rowlf and Dr. Teeth. But the next ep stars a certain blue, beaky twit...

    Fic: Muppets from Earth

    Gelfling Girl: I have it on good authority - Robert A. Heinlein - that he was. I'm occasionally a redhead myself. Lil0Vampy: These chapters certainly were intense to write. I tend to get inside of the characters as I write for, so all this Weirdo abuse is taxing. HOW long 'til that...

    Fic: Muppets from Earth

    TogetherAgain: For me, that's getting past the first draft. I have a terrible time, sometimes, pulling words out of my brain and lining them up in a way that I hope makes sense. Once I finish that it's relatively easy (but much more time-consuming) to batter it into final shape. So glad I...

    Fic: Muppets from Earth

    "Gambling on the score." I don't believe I didn't catch that. She on me. I've been researching marriage laws and citizenship qualifications and just what is involved in giving a deposition, all the funny leaked out of my brain. More will come, but not immediately, as I'm now writing the...

    Fic: Muppets from Earth

    Pictures? I was supposed to draw all this? Yeesh, and I've been wasting time doodling Camilla's little sea turtle. I wouldn't call that bet gambling. I'd call it friendly one-upmanship. Dr. Teeth wouldn't have accepted such an odd challenge if he didn't already have an idea in mind, and...

    Fic: Muppets from Earth

    Muppets from Earth Part 8: Musical Interlude ***** The Muppets had finally reclaimed their theater. All of the construction, deconstruction, and reconstruction was complete at long last, and the house and lobby—and any other areas that would be seen by the public—had been painted. The...

    Sharing the Muppets with your children

    I have no kids of my own, but I've been known to play the Muppet Youtube videos for my niece and nephew. My niece loved the "classical Chicken" skit, possibly because my sister and I occasionally cluck the chicken version of "Baby Face." (That is but one of the many weird gags we've held over...

    Why does Muppet fandom seem so underground?

    I have found in my experiences that people I talk to are familiar with the Muppets and have fond memories of them. They know the Muppets already, so they're not going to go nuts over them they way they may do with something new and shiny like Avatar, WoW, Twilight, Harry Potter, yadda yadda...

    Fic: Muppets from Earth

    Gelfling Girl, thanks! Epic, huh? Does this mean I'm going to have to writen an interminable poem in Gaelic about it? ;) Muppetfan44, thanks, I think. Heh. Larry Niven, one of my three all-time favorite authors and the biggest influence on my writing style, said that "It is a sin to...

    The Darkwing Duck Thread

    Heh, I have two of the 12" darkwings. One was a birthday gift, and the other was sent to me by a net.friend who was giving away old fannish stuff. I painted one up to look like Negaduck.

    Is there Muppet continuity/canon?

    I agree with Drtooth, there is no identifiable canon with the Muppets. There are so many contradictions and conflicts, there's just no way to resolve them all. The closest you can do is work out themes that run through them all, like Piggy pursuing Kermit. That said, I have my personal...

    The Darkwing Duck Thread

    I remember Isis Vanderchill. I know Nodoff existed, but heck if I can remember anything about him at the moment. Dragaunus and Wadsworth the Butler... dunno about the skeletal guy. The Lord of Darkness was anything but skeletal. He also sounds like a big cloud, a rooster, and a clown.

    Funny picture of Gonzo on the Muppet Mindset

    Ah, that is a still from the self-therapy clip on the Disney Muppet site. Go to Gonzo's channel and click on the "Are You Feeling Weird?" clip.

    The Darkwing Duck Thread

    You may be right about it being a second series. Again, I'll have to check to be sure. All I know for sure is that there was another wave that got canceled. I seem to remember Morgana McCawber being in that line. Something about her having split-open hair. Argh. Now I can't wait to get...
