    Muppets Take Manhattan Playing in NYC

    I don't remember seeing Muppet Caper in the movies either but I clearly remember seeing MTM, Dark Crystal and I THINK Muppet Movie....never saw Labyrinth on the big screen and I SO wanted to go!

    "Muppet, Music & Magic" Events

    If you take a train from Westchester into NYC, you can get out to Long Island easily from Penn Station. There's a train that goes to Huntington and then you can just get a cab from the Huntington train station to the theater. Might cost you a bit but it sounds like it's going to be worth it!

    Is it true?

    Yes, I was very fortunate that I not only had my dream working for Henson come true for a little while but I got to do 95% real work and not just get coffee for people :) I was also fortunate in that I had an internship actually working with the puppets themselves which I know others hired...

    Who have you met from the Henson Company?

    I would LOVE to meet Eric Jacobson as I think he's doing a fantastic job with Frank's characters, particularly Grover. I HAD the opportunity to meet Frank Oz but didn't follow through with it because I was trying to do the right thing at the time...I can kick myself now.....

    Is it true?

    I used to intern with them but I did actual work for them as in worked on an episode of Bear in the Big Blue House and did actual work in their Muppet workshop. I never met Jim Henson though and never got full time work with them unfortunately....

    "Muppet, Music & Magic" Events

    You're welcome everybody. I try to earn my keep here :) I guess I'm also real excited there's going to be a Muppet event on Long Island for once instead of NYC (either way I gotta take the train somewhere but nice to have things local!)

    "Muppet, Music & Magic" Events

    If it's anything like the BAM event from a couple of years ago, or the event I attended at the Museum of T.V. and Radio in NYC a few years back, it's going to be awesome!

    Poll: Do you have children?

    I am totally with you...I have no desire to have children ever. I'm almost 30 now and while I like kids generally and get along with them, I just don't see me raising them. I don't have that yearning/motherly instinct in me yet I love my cats, (and all animals mostly) and take care of them and...
