    So, Cantus...or anyone for that matter...how does one get in on the trading circle? I have tried a few times but...alas...no one seems to take me up on anything.

    Sesame Street censorship

    I don't know...I find that the lower gruff voices are just as hard on my throat as well, especially as I get older. Jim Henson even said in one of the interview segments on the MTM DVD that he could only do a few takes of Dr. Teeth because it was very hard on his vocal chords. I think that...

    Spirited Away

    Hey Everybody, I just got back from seeing "Spirited Away". I went to a late show with Rachel, my girlfriend, and two other friends of ours. Rachel went into the film highly skeptical at best. She's been tainted against japanese animation by the shows that you can find on Cartoon...

    Disco Frog

    Good Doctor, On the muppet show version the first of the song is sung by various alligators and frogs in a swamp like atmosphere. Kermit comes in dancing just before the chorus I think wearing a white suit and shirt (much like the outfit John Travolta wore in Saturday Night Fever) and...

    Disco Frog

    Hey Doctor... I know this was performed on The Muppet Show starring Christopher Reeve...Kermit was the opening act. "Disco Frog" was a the featured song on the album "Sesame Disco". and the album cover boasts Kermit the Frog as a guest star. However, I'm not so certain it was ever...

    What Muppets were you scared of as a Kid?

    You know it's funny...you're right Zoot does where sunglasses but I guess that's how I always imagined his eyes underneath.

    What Muppets were you scared of as a Kid?

    Zoot used to freak me out when I was a little kid. I think it was because he was so mysterious and quiet. I remember one time I was playing in a playhouse all alone in somebody's basement and it was very, very dark. For some reason I kept imagining Zoot standing in the corner staring at me...

    The Muppet Show Album 1

    Hi There, You might want to check out e-bay. There's almost always a copy of that album floating around for a reasonable price. I'm sorry to hear about your house fire. I hope you're recovering well.

    Best Muppet couple

    I would defnitely say Floyd and Janice just as many of you have. I think they're a great couple because they're both very secure with themselves and thus seem really comfortable being in a relationship with one another...unlike the pig and the frog...Miss Piggy is _High_ maintenance!

    That's really wonderful, isn't it. How fortunate for you guys at Palisades to be able to attend that gathering. It was really nice to hear Frank's appreciation for the figures and I'm sure y'all were just over the moon after hearing that. Congratulations and...I'm very, very envious...

    Debate: Is Gonzo an Alien?

    You know, I agree with a lot of you in the sense that when I was younger I always thought of him as an alien. But now I don't think's important...Gonzo never should have been defined as being _anything_. Part of what makes Gonzo Gonzo is the fact that no one knows what he is and neither does...

    Saying Goodbye (demo) on MC Radio

    Phil, I really agree with you on your opinions of Mr. Raposo's vocal work. Very distinct. Do you have a favorite vocal performance of his? I would have to say that mine is "Everybody Sleeps" there's just something about that song and the way he sings it that really captures my heart. It...
