Back to the Mediterranean as we follow Jacob and his half sister from Crete to Greece and then to the U.S. as we follow John on his plane ride to Greece. By the way, have you ever considered the alternative to growing old? My daughter did just this morning when she dared to talk back to me.;)

Chapter 5 Chapter 5 “It was a long trip from Germany to Greece and there were many stops along the way. About halfway there the new king began to notice that his wife was going to have another child.” “Boy or girl?” asked the boy. “Girl,” said the storyteller, “but as soon as this child was...

Ad for fan-fic If you have ever posted a fan-fic on this site and wondered why very few people read it. Check out "The Meeting Of The Storytellers" in fan-fic and fan art

Glad you like it Thanks Count and Beaker I wonder why no one else has dicovered this little piece of fan-fiction.:confused: I plan to continue with the back story for one more installment and then get back to Greece to have Jacob get to the will reading place. Other Muppet characters will show...

Chapter 4 Chapter 4 “A long time ago,” the storyteller started, “long before you were born and even longer before I was born there lived a man and his brother in the country of Greece.” “Where’s Greece?” asked the boy The storyteller removed a stein from the mantle piece. “Here,” he said...

chapter 3 Chapter 3 Meanwhile, back in the U.S.A. John was dragging an old suitcase across the floor. He opened it up and removed a pair of socks, a pair of underwear, an undershirt, a white shirt, a pair of trousers, a jacket and a vest. He then removed his robe and began to put on the suit...

thnx I wasn't sure how the half-sister would be accepted, actually I'm going to make her a minor character. I haven't quite decided on a name for her yet, but basically she's going to lead Jacob to the will reading site and then gracefully bow out. A few of the regular Muppet characters will...

Chapter 2 Chapter 2 Meanwhile, far away in Crete another man with a similar looking canine companion paced the floor of the labyrinth that had become his home. Many years had passed since both he and his cousin had left their native Germany. He to Greece and his cousin to America. Many more...

thnx Count and Beaker Thanks, as you can see my story is going to evolve as a meeting between John Hurt's Storyteller Character from the American show (whom I have given the name John Schmidt) and Michael Gambon's Storyteller Character from the British show "Greek Myths" (whom I have given the...

Chapter 1 John Schmidt sat by his hearth in his home in New England, a letter in his hands, he dreaded opening it, for according to the postmark the letter had come from far away, from Crete, and according to the return address it was from his cousin Jacob, who had lived there for many years...

Beautiful Very nice. I would like to see this continue as Peter and Scrooge's almot granddaughter consummate their union. Please continue.

Okay b4 this turns into a sermon and one of us winds up banned Yes, Jesus or y'shua was a common name in Bible times. In fact Joshua, Hosea, Isaiah and Y'shua are all diffent ways of spelling the same basic Hebrew name which translates to Jehovah Saves. In Hispanic cultures it is pronounced hay...

Jesus is a rather common name for dogs, also a lot of Hispanic Christians name their sons Jesus, after the Christ, of course (in fact around the time of Christ Jesus was a very popular name). But the most famous dog named Jesus comes from this story One day a burglar was robbing a house, where...

It is interesting It is interesting but remember that the 30th anny show was also a tribute to the late Jim Henson. A 50th anny show would be nice but I'm not sure how they can do it without him.

I just rented A Very Merry Muppet Christmas Movie. Great show, but I think it was done already, wasn't it called "It's A Wonderful Life"? ;) Oh well that's what my friends are famous more.

Merry Christmas Merry Christmas, Feliz Navidad, Joyeux Noel, Meep, meep meep meep, Bork Bork Christmas. Okay that was Merry Christmas in English, Spanish, French, Beakerese, and Pseudo Swedish from the Swedish Chef. Oh and to the Jewish members of this fan club Happy Channukkah (I hope I...

Tag Team SS girls wrestling Maria (ref): Introducing the SSMWF's (Sesame Street Muppet Wrestling Foundation) first tag team girls match. And now entering the ring from my right, the home team of Zoe Monster and Prarie Dawn. (half the crowd cheers and half the crowd boos) And now from my left...

Many changes I have liked and not liked I've been around since SS's beginnings and I can say that I like the addition of many fairy tale characters as regulars on the street. This sort of gives kids a chance to look at the characters differently than just in the books. I also like the fact that...

Jim knew he was going to die Jim knew he was going to die, just like every other human being on earth knows he is going to die, eventually. As for whether or not he knew the time was near. I don't think so, Jim did not claim to be psychic, nor was he suffering from any long-term chronic...

It's always good to review Let's see death could easily be reviewed. Luis, Maria, Susan and Bob, the four remaining original human cast members aren't getting any younger. I don't know offhand which one is oldest, but whenever one of them decides it's time to die (that's the reason that Mr...
