I haven't, but Mom's done sewing kind of like this before. First time we've ever tried doing an AIDS Quilt panel, though.

Here's the scoop: We've been working on it for about a month. It was the day that one of the campus ministry groups brought in a piece of the AIDS Quilt to put on display, and that night, I was scheduled to go to a rock concert with my family. On our way to a Chinese place for dinner before the...

I'm a member of only one other Internet forum, one for fans of singer/guitarist Greg Lake (lead singer of Emerson, Lake and Palmer - one of my very favorite groups). On that one, I just use my real name (the one on my birth certificate).

Time to bump this thread up...and drop a bomb. Ya know how I said I was keeping my big project under wraps until November at least? I lied. I just spoke with the project's co-creator (also known as my mother). We agreed to let the secret out ahead of time. We're making an AIDS Quilt panel...

(pacing room) I probably didn't. It's probably buried in the morass on my desk. Storyteller: Oh, it'll keep. (stashes cake in fridge) Erin, what is it? You've been pacing back and forth for the last five minutes. Nora: Yeah, what's going on? MN: Guys...you know how I said I was going to keep...

You might be an obsessed Muppet fan if... -You refer to the local plastic surgeon as Vendaface. -You've completely memorized who was where in the TMS openings, season 2 onward.

Happy birthday, Ryan! (Storyteller unveils a big cake with the number 16 written across the top.) MN: I think he'll like that. Nora: Yeah...now, we need to work on what we're going to be on the 31st. Storyteller: I'm going as either the Wizard or the Mean Genie. MN: Good. Now, Nora, I realize...

Yeah, well, that never stopped a lot of fanfic writers. But if the Muppet Show ran past 1981, or if there were a new Muppet Show today, it'd be cool to see the Muppets take on "She Blinded Me With Science" and stuff like that.

Nora: They're already talking over at the RHLC. Storyteller: Well, the walls have ears...that reminds me, I was going to make them some earmuffs for the winter. (sits down in chair) AH! What's this I'm sitting on? Nora: It's obviously a spool of orange thread. Probably fell out of your sewing...

As a matter of fact, it does. Have my MC dorms roommates been talking to you? Listen: on Thanksgiving, if I haven't told you what the big project is by then, just sit back, relax and eat the turkey and stuffing, and rest assured that I will tell you soon.

I can really see the Mayhem doing 'Money for Nothing' by Dire Straits (I want my MTV...). It'd be Floyd on lead vocals and bass, Janice doing the lead guitar and they could bring in Scooter for rhythm guitar and backing vocals. 'Course, they'd have to edit the lyrics a bit. I can also see the...

Oh, I think you guys will like it. And I'll drop a hint: it has to do with Richard. But that's all I can say right now. It'll probably be done sometime between Thanksgiving and Dec. 1. By the way, the Fraggle Rock movie's been mentioned on CNN.com, so it's not just the Muppet world who's...

As a Catholic girl myself, Sylinde, I'd like to respectfully put in my two cents' worth. Sure, my grandmother was raised in the God-fearing fashion, but I was raised to believe that God is a loving god, and that we should look up to Him as children do to their parents. As for confession, it is...

MN: Oh, thank you...ow! (grabs arm) Who did that? Nora: I won't stop until you tell me what that green thing is! Storyteller: Oooh...this is very unlike you, Nora. Nora: So sue me, I'm curious! MN: Oh, all right, all right, because I don't want to go around with black and blue arms for the rest...

MN: Oh, today be the natal day of the Jabberwock. Call you in the mome raths and the slithy toves...yet shun the frumious Bandersnatch. Nora: And it's homecoming! We need to wear green...or we'll get pinched! MN: Yeah, just like St. Patrick's Day, oh faith and begore. Nora: Hey, can I borrow...

MN: A Fraggle Rock movie, eh? Well...we shall have to sneak out one night and see it. Storyteller: I'll bring the Doozer sticks.

(MN and co. are wrestling with Poe props in sitting room) MN: Now, Scooter, you look positively adorable in that emerald suit and glasses...good grief, watch out for the pendulum! (pendulum nearly falls on Nora) Storyteller: Oooh! That'd have made for a splitting headache! Nora: Har de har...

Decorating is mostly completed. MN: Hey, Nora, could you run and get me some more orange crepe paper? There's some in my closet. Nora: Yeah, sure. (runs to MN's closet and starts rummaging around) Hey, what's this green thing here? MN: Whoops, wrong closet! (runs to closet and slams door) I...

Better bump the thread up a bit. Like I said earlier, I need to figure out how to post or link photos to the forum...'cause I'm working on something that you guys might find interesting. Not at liberty to say what it is, though, and it won't be done for a bit...

Decorating continues... Storyteller: (standing on sink, wearing a Fraggle-sized Doozer helmet) All right, bring in the parapets and raise the battlements! (castle parts start to creak up around bathroom) MN: (comes in hauling street lamps and pub signs) The coffin's in the kitchen! We'll...
