Hey, another April Fool! My birthday is April 7 and my father-in-law's is April 1. This April I will officially be able to rent a car at age 25.

Was I right about "Put down the ducky"? It may have been my bad ear messing with me.

So my middle school years...that sounds about right. I remember watching it and not really comprehending what was going on but enjoying the strangeness of it all the same.

The opera...that would be something to do. Something new for me anyway. And yes, Liquid TV...I seem to vaguely remember that. How long ago was it? Do you recall, Dee (or anyone)?

I didn't watch the parade, but my wife did. She called me when the SS float came on. It was really cool. A huge floral likeness of Big Bird was sitting at a piano and sticking out of the other side of the piano was Oscar the Grouch. Elmo was at the front of the float. The coolest part was...

I have not yet received my Lips (Arrival date: 01/04!) but my other three Series 9 figures were fine. I love the Chef's paint...I think he looks leagues better than the previous Chef. Pops is dead on and Fozzie, though his eyes are a bit googly, is okay. I just stand him at an angle so his...

Very true. Zoot shocked the heck out of me when I happened across a site selling him for $75 or something outrageous like that. And that's not even the repaint! To think I could have had both versions for about $4 a piece at Sam Goody at one point. Tsk tsk tsk.

I remember watching the Aeon Flux cartoons when they were aired. It seems like I was in High School at the time because if I remember correctly, it was aired kind of late at night. The live version is Charlize Theron with black hair. Maybe she'll pull a Kate Beckinsale and prove to be a...

That's why there's a separation of power in the three branches of government. If anything, Sam would just be the most disgruntled President ever and would suddenly disappear one night without a trace.

Two hours and counting! Happy New Year! Hope everyone is safe and well.

Well thank you very much. I feel kind of bad because it's always the same few people chiming in with ideas for each show (it seems like only 9 or 10 of us have ever contributed since the thread started in mid-September). They're all really good ideas but I wish more people would jump in and...

Did anyone catch the Popeye Christmas Special this season? It was all computerized and whatnot (is that what CGI is?) I only caught the final five minutes of it, but what I saw was a travesty: Popeye was with Olive Oyl, Sweet Pea and Wimpy and they were decorating the tree with none other...

Rather than hunt for a white shirt Lips, I went for the brown shirt just because it seemed to have more of a "hippie" quality to it. I realize that the white shirt is from his appearance in Great Muppet Caper but based on pictures, the brown shirt looked better to me.

I saw Ocean's 12 when it first came out. It's fun but they really copped out a couple of times. I don't want to give anything away for those who have not yet seen it. Let's just say I'm not a big Julia Roberts fan and this movie made me like her a little less. For those who have seen it, I...

Miss Piggy is one of those who possess uncanny abilities. When did she have time to learn anything? She has killer karate moves, as we all know. She can drive a motorcycle and a big rig (she even knows trucker lingo!), she's a very skilled synchronized swimmer, she's a handy mountain climber...

Well thank you. I can assure you it's all scientific fact. Just ask Bunsen. :confused:

(Congratulations on 3,000 posts, Dee!) My brother-in-law has several tattoos. Unfortunately, the artist was a beginner and basically used him as "practise". My brother-in-law went through with it because of the cheap price (yes, he did pay something). So the tattoos, while they are...

I first read about the Muppets figures in Reader's Digest, they had a picture of Beaker with the Muppets Lab. I thought, "Hey, cool." However, when I saw Kermit, Piggy, Dr. Teeth and Bunsen a few months later in a Musicland, I looked at them but passed them up. It wasn't until I joined Sam...

I can't believe I forgot to list Placido Flamingo and Forgetful Jones! They'd be awesome as well.

At least Dr. Teeth would have good campaign commercials. :D
