"...heading over to Jane Hunt's house." Yeah, that is pretty obvious. Do fill us in on what you two talk about, okay, Steve?

(Message to Ailie and Caitlyn - wow. I'm amazed at how quickly you guys can fill up several pages on this thread in one day.) (Message to Ed. Go with the pickles, definitely.) Beige: (dozing on sofa) Hmm...what's this about pages and pickles? Erin: Oh, nothing. Go back to sleep. Scooter...

Road trip to NJ, hmm? Call me crazy, but why do I have a hunch that he's heading for a certain neck of the woods in northeast Bergen County? All sounds quite intriguing. We'll have to grill him about it when he gets back...(sees a group of monsters dragging out a barbecue) Not that kind of...

Same here; I've always dreamed in color. Occasionally I can taste things in my dreams - I once dreamed that I was sampling some kind of stew at the farmer's market in Union Square. It had a tomato base, with large chunks of potato, and some cilantro and parsley...I could still taste it when I...

Right on - we're all with you, Sara. Chalk this up under random thoughts - I was just mulling over one of the stories from "Jim Henson's Bedtime Stories," the one where Waldorf learns that Statler's been secretly volunteering as a troop leader for the Junior Rangers. We figured that was...

(knock at door) Scooter: I'll get it. (opens door) Oh, hiding from Marvin, are you...what? Nora: What's going on? Scooter: Uh, the Muppaphone says his name's Scooter.

Erin: Grew up and stopped behaving like a child. Ouch. Beige: So is it really true that people are supposed to give up their imaginations once they hit adulthood? Scooter: If it were, Jim and all the others would be in a completely different line of work. Nora: Not a pleasant thought. (phone...

I had a Muppet-related dream that would be a reporter's dream come true; I dreamed that I was interviewing Jane Hunt for an article.

Hi, Sara, nice to see you back. So you're working for the local DMV or something? I know what you mean, heralde - I've always been a behind-the-scenes sort of person; back in high school, I was in the drama club, but as a member of the crew. But when I took a couple of drama classes in...

Storyteller: Mmm, close...it's Kneb...something. Nora: Knebworth, Knebworth House. Scooter: Yeah...also known as the Mallory Gallery, and Wayne Manor. Beige: So how many spooks live in that place? Erin: Well, there's the White Lady and the graveyard ghost, there's Ed Lytton himself...and Jenny...

I know what you mean - and during Jim's memorial, when Scooter was doing the first verse of "Just One Person," at one point Richard reached up and adjusted something on Scooter's head. And about the Muppets being on top of their game, only to lose two of their best and brightest - yes, it is...

Storyteller: Five across, six letter word for either pandemonium, or the name of a rock group. Beige: Mayhem. Storyteller: Eight down, with the X-Files, I want to... Scooter: Believe. (whistles a few bars of X-Files theme) Storyteller: Nine across, the leaves in this season were turning to the...

Sorry for being a little late, but happy birthday, Carrie!

I can also do scones, brownies, various cakes and quick breads...and in December, whenever my family invites half the neighborhood over for a soup-and-bread dinner during Advent, Mom puts me in charge of making the bread.

I just read a really good book called "Girl Sleuth," by Melanie Rehak. It's the history of the Nancy Drew books and the people behind them. And it contains a great deal of info on women's rights in politics, the family and the workforce, and the history of adventure serials for kids, tied in...

I'm a good baker; I can make a wicked blueberry cobbler, or a good batch of bread.

Yeah, by that time he'd known Jim and the others for almost ten years, so it was a given that he could imitate the others' voices. A lot of it has to do with his ear as well: "He could sing in almost any style and had a sure way with accents." Richard was a master mimic, and according to Jane...

Same here...it's a shame they didn't include any footage of Richard's backstage tours in any of the official documentaries. According to Of Muppets and Men: "It is Richard's special gift that he can work with other people's characters, and summon them to life. His Kermit voice is a close...

(Ed: check your e-mail; I've sent along my interpretation of the heinous hippo.) Beige: Wait, isn't a hippo that big blubbery creature that lolls around in water? Storyteller: Don't call them blubbery; they're awfully sensitive. Erin: Hippo's the Greek word for horse...so a hippopotamus would...

Happy birthday, Dave! In honor of the day, Gonzo will set off a 25-cannon salute (firing himself out of each cannon, one at a time), to the accompaniment of a group of chickens clucking the "William Tell Overture."
