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.
There's a who where now? Thanks for the heads up, giant shaggy dude...but if it's all the same, I think I'll just lie here for now, and think of where I fit in in the universe...(a la Dr. Smith, from "Lost in Space")...oh, the pain, the pain!
Tony opens his eyes, and stares up at Sweetums.
Hey big, shaggy...dude...(sighs)...if you want to stomp on me, go ahead. I won't mind...
Tony closes his eyes. After a few beats, he opens them again.
Not in a stomping mood today? That's cool. Whatever. I dunno what's wrong with me...
Tony is still laying on the hallway floor.
If I never got out of bed, would anyone notice? Would anyone care? No. No one would care. I wouldn't be missed. I am Mr. Cellophane. People look right through me, and walk right by me. They don't even know I'm there! No...I wouldn't be missed...
Meanwhile, in Tony's room...
Lefty has become a totally kind and generous individual...
Lefty: Hey, how are you feelin' today, Mr. Newsman?
Newsman: Better.
Lefty: That's splendid to hear! (looks at Crazy Harry) Oh, why is dat poor man tied down?
Newsman: Let him be. Tony tied...
POOF!
Tony turns back into a goth. This time, the transformation is more severe: he is even moodier, wears black lipstick, dark eyeshadow, and his fingernails are pained black.
He opens the door to his room, and walks into the hall.
Tony walks up and down the hall, reciting his latest...
Opposites?
(turns to imaginary camera, a shocked look on his face...very dramatic)
We've been duped!
POOF!
Tony immediately turns into a goth. Very pale skin...long, black, unkempt hair...black clothing from head to toe...pierced ears with earrings...
Man...what are all these people...
Hey, welcome back, Bunsen, we were just about to...
(looks at Bunsen's offering)
Cottage cheese and crackers? Great. I went from seafood to cottage cheese.
Lefty enters and slams the door behind him, panting.
Lefty: Some crazy old farmer trew a watermelon at me!
Tony: Huh?
Lefty...
Tony (to the scientists) Um, well guys, since you've invited yourselves...I was wondering if you have any food to bring. I have more than enough here...(rolls catering cart into room) But I ordered it with Cookie Monster in mind...
So, here we have cookie burgers...cookie hot dogs...cookie...
Oh hey, Cookie! I didn't forget about you, bud!
(watching as the three scientists hurriedly set up a table and chairs)
Um...do you mind if Bunsen, Beaker and Phil join us? I had no idea they were planning to...er...visit...
Don't worry, though. I have plenty of food, so...make yourself...
The room is cleared of all food, furniture, etc. from the night before.
Lefty: So where'd she go again?
Tony: Something about Alan Rickman and Claudia...I'm not sure...it happened so fast.
Lefty: Ah. So she dropped ya fer this Rickman guy, huh?
Tony: What? No! No.
Lefty: Dat's...
I'm going a bit off-topic here, but I agree with you, Ziffel. I met my girlfriend here at MC, and we've been together for four months now. Unfortunately we haven't met in person yet, but we keep in touch via chat, email and PMs.:)
Tony stifles a giggle into his napkin.
I'm sorry, sweetie...that was just funny! I agree with you: this does beat doing homework!
I'm glad I was able to get the three stooges out of here. Lefty would have tried to sell you something useless, Newsie would have talked your ear off about...
Oh, we can't forget...
Tony gets up, gets another plate, and puts several crab legs on it. He puts it in front of Alex, then makes a dish for himself. He sits, and puts the napkin on his lap.
Are you enjoying yourself?
Okay...
(Tony clears the lobster plates and goes to cart; he fills Alex's plate with assorted clams, shrimp and a piece of sole. He puts the plate in front of her, then makes his own dish)
Enjoy!
