I'd like to see Oscar rip someone a new...:grouchy:

Caroll Spinney! Last week I received my autographed copy of Caroll's new book! Why am I so happy? His book tour came nowhere near Cincinnati, and I was bummed. However Jeni (the web master of Caroll's official fan page) told me that I could buy a copy to help support the Children's...

Yes.:(

Great price, but what aren't all 15 DVDs shown?:eek:

I assume that you are just starting out. Perhaps I am wrong to assume that. By learning to make basic puppets, you will develop your puppet building skills. Even if it's not exactly what you expected, at least you learned something to apply to the next puppet. What sort of puppets are...

A friend of mine was invited (several years ago) to be a guest puppeteer on Muppets Tonight. While she was hanging out with Steve Whitmire, he suggested that she gain performance experience by starting her own cable access TV show. Many towns/cities offer FREE classes on how to produce your...

I do not have cable TV, and the reception is horrible. If I mail someone a blank VHS tape & return postage, would you dub me a copy? email me at: wumpmucket@fuse.net many thanks:)

Try to start simple, and learn how to make basic puppets. As you learn new skills you will be able to build more advanced puppets. There are many books available on puppetry, check your local library. Good luck, and HAVE FUN!:)

I purchased the book on the day of it's release and flew through it. Caroll Spinney has been my hero since I met him at a puppet festival in Boston in the early 70's. I would have liked more behind-the-Bird/Grouch stories, but that may not appeal to the general public. I will be donating...

Who are the rappers that Carrol Spinney mentions in his book? I guess one of these clowns punched Big Bird!:boo: I always liked the little kids who would treat the Muppets as living beings. :)

Join Puppeteers of America It is here that you get to rub elbows with bow puppet fans, and pros. Join you local puppet guild too! Info at www.puppeteers.org :)

A Muppet box would rock! And Rhino is just the company to do it. How about a CD that collects the cover versions of Muppets & Sesame Street tunes. I know about the one that Nettwerk put out, but how about something that rocks harder. Something along the lines of the "Saturday Morning" or...

I am proud to have met the O.O.O. (Original Orange Oscar) at a Boston puppetry convention around 1970. Did you know that he was going to be purple ? bleak!:grouchy: I'd love to see Sesame figures with a O.O.O. variant.

Cincy Sounds as if you saw the "typical" Cincinnati. I have lived here for 10 years now, and somehow survive. There is cool stuff, you just have to dig it up. Last month I produced a puppetSLAM fundraiser for the Cincinnati Area Puppetry Guild, and SOLD OUT the theatre!!! Next time you...

Great tune! :)

Just do it! I too am a new puppet builder, puppeteer. Well not that new, I am almost 40! I was a HUGE puppet nut as a kid, then got side tracked into music/video/radio for 20+ years. Now I am back, and with help from my wonderful wife making my own characters. The first step is to sketch...

I tried to find a picture, but no such luck.:grouchy: The mouse pad is made by Fellowes , yet their @#$! web site doesn't include a picture either. It is item # 859089 and has a great group photo that shows Fozzie, Animal, Kermit, and Gonzo. I think I paid around $6.99.

I guess I should have stated that I am a guy. Why is there so much women's Muppet underwear? Guys like Muppets too!:grouchy:

With the Henson 5 taking control we must all have a "few" wishes that we would like to buy for our Muppets collections. I would love to see The Muppets get the Scooby Doo/Sponge Bob treatment and see Muppets EVERYTHING - EVERYWHERE! My wife and I were at Target last night ad found Gumby &...
