Just thinking that it seems like a lot has to do with how common a last name is. So if we here a last name like chicken, duck, dog, horse, cow, or sheep it sounds funny to us. But if we hear someone mentioning lamb, swan, bird, fox, or fish then we don't think anything about it. - Jim...

Yes that's right, Mrs. Pepper. I have bought a lot from Amazon.com both new from them and used from individuals selling through them. I've gotten some really good deals on items in mint or near mint condition. Amazon states that when buying from individuals "you should receive the same quality...

Ehhhh what you say, sonny? Time for bingo again? Ookay. I'll go tell Professor Hastings and we''ll be right there. And by the way sonny, it's Hastings who done swipes your meds, not me! You're mixing him up with me who steals your candy bars when you win at bingo. It's only fair since you cheat...

Great film. A visual treat and the great "Candy Man" song. The new one is getting good reviews and I'm sure with Tim Burton directing it is also a visual feast for the eyes. I love Burton's original style so much. Late last night I decided to watch the other Steve Martin dvd movie I bought...

Hiya Vibs. Yes what Vic said , as well as others, is right on target. Don't have anything to add except to say keep hanging in there and know that lots of good things are on your way too in the midst of the cruddy stuff. Strike a compromise, and get the most enjoyment you can. - from an...

And then this animated g one maybe some can fill in some details of. It was yet another clever and fun SS segment for teaching about words that a certain letter begins with. What I remember is a boy walking along and encountering various things that begin with the letter g. I think a goose was...

Just looking at the "Sesame Street Unpaved Episodes" thread and I see you listed the traffic light film in episode 560: (post 13) http://forum.muppetcentral.com/showthread.php?t=6313 So looks like there is a light appearing at the end of this tunnel for you, letterman! :)

Not sure about a director's cut version of "The Jerk" on dvd. I don't have that movie on dvd yet but was looking at Amazon and see that it was released on dvd in 2002 and interestingly is due to be released again July 26th, called "The Jerk-26th anniversary edition". It says this version is in...

LOL , I got a lot of nice laughs from that last post. :) And I have to say that I am kind of like that second friend you described. One time I told someone a joke and he laughed really hard. Then I repeated the punch line and he laughed less hard. Then when I repeated it again he cracked me...

Yes I really liked that movie a lot too. Caine is a great actor too so we get two wonderful actors in a very entertaining movie. LOVED that ending scene with Caine and Martin watching (in astonishment) the plane flying away! "Planes,Trains and Automobiles" with Martin and Candy was also superb...

That's a very nice and special idea you have about the Mordecai Brown baseball card. So sorry of this additional stuff on top of everything, Docnzhoss. I'm glad you have your mom and wife for comforting one another. I have a great relationship with my mom and she's always been a great comfort.

This goofy signature is a memory from the early 70's but not of classic SS. I was playing downstairs with some other boys in the neighborhood and my dad came to the top of the steps and said, "Hey if you guys want any refreshments come up to the kitchen." Then we all made a mad dash up the steps...

And then there was that film of the penguins sliding down the slide into the pool. The voices of several children were counting them one by one as they came down. After #19 a penguin stood at the top but paused. For several seconds the kids were wondering why he was delaying. Then he starts to...

I remember that one pretty well. After that one boy says, "THIS!", that music is really fun. Dih dih dih dih dih DIH dih dih ..... Then it consummates in an offscreen collision crash sound. Then the other boy says, "I'm glad we have traffic lights" with a final shot of a traffic light (with...

Yeah "Fast Times at Ridgemont High" was a fun comedy I liked from the early 80's. I also really liked the Steve Martin movies of the early 80's ("The Jerk" [1979 actually], "The Man With Two Brains", "The Lonely Guy", and "All of Me"). Well last evening I watched "All of Me". First time I saw it...

Quite a bit of rain today since early morning. But even when it wasn't raining, the one constant has been the chronic MUGGINESS. Tomorrow is forecasted to be quite oppressive: Mostly cloudy in the morning...then becoming partly cloudy. A 40 percent chance of showers and thunderstorms. Highs...

Thanks for taking the time to share these two extremely rough things that have recently happened, Docnzhoss. (((((((( Docnzhoss )))))))) You're a wonderful MC user. I've enjoyed talking baseball with you but even better is the consistently nice, freindly, and fun spirited way you are in...

Hi Dietrich. Sorry to say my memories of Willy and Mr. Macintosh are pretty vague. I think they started near the end of my regular SS viewing days. Not sure if you saw this thread about them that Xerus started and mentioned a specific segment...

Yeah MUGGY continues to be the operative word here too. Mid or late next week the humidity MAY finally come down a LITTLE they say. At least there is supposed to be some showers this evening to cool things off a bit.

That's really cool you're going on this church mission trip. I know you'll be a real blessing to them and vice verse. See you Friday (when , hopefully, the weather is a little cooler and dryer). :)
