    "The Diva Code"

    The photo has been around a while. It's still in my files from the days of Palisades. Here it is in color. :mad: :)

    What's Wrong with Sweatpants?

    Many women love to shop and help in that area and if your mom wants to do it that could be a good thing but only if you're comfortable with what you are wearing. If you have any doubts when trying something on it's best to leave it for someone else. I see so many well dressed uncomfortable...

    What's Wrong with Sweatpants?

    Some companies like H&M are starting to make some really comfortable slacks, but I get ya. Heck, around my apartment I'm lucky to be wearing pants! :concern: But I digress. (uncomfortable silence) It's a thing most of my friends know about me. Hey, everyone has their delightfully odd bits...

    It's a Great Day to Be a Muppet Fan!

    The least the HiT people could do is have it come with finger puppets! I don't know why that's in my head, but right now I'm thinking of a Fraggle finger puppet on all five fingers! :coy:

    What's Wrong with Sweatpants?

    As long as they're not sweaty and as long as you're not going to a dinner party I don't see the problem. However, I live in a city filled with hippies. Sometimes the only way to tell the homeless from the hip is by looking at their shoes. :cool: I am a great supporter of comfort. I've been...

    He just wants to play. :crazy: :o

    That appears to be Sweetums. This is the Fozzie. :o He gets worse. .

    It's a Great Day to Be a Muppet Fan!

    Even though I hold onto the classic designation (for history and chronology rather than value) I still agree with most of what you've said. The Muppets seem to have lost their way on what made them special and are getting back to those roots. The best example is Jim's work, of course. But it's...

    State of the Muppets - An Opinion

    Oooh! I like the title!

    It's a Great Day to Be a Muppet Fan!

    I was actually kidding. :o There's really no POV on a classic. The original television series and first trilogy of motion pictures are the classics. Some fans prefer the newer projects or grew up with them (and there's nothing the least bit bad about that), but that has no bearing on the...

    State of the Muppets - An Opinion

    How would you twist Gonzo's alien origin into forming from mold underneath the Muppet Theater stairs? That's a fan fic I'd check in on regularly. :concern: However, nothing disturbs me more than the Gonzo in this clip from France's Muppets TV! I'm not sure he'd be my favorite with that creepy...

    It's a Great Day to Be a Muppet Fan!

    The YouTube and Muppets.com bits are the closest thing to the Muppet Show sketches in years. That's what makes it classic because the Muppet Show started it all with this configuration of Muppets. Classic Muppets are Jim's Muppets. He set the standard so that’s what I reference. The word classic...

    State of the Muppets - An Opinion

    MFS barely made a pit-stop in theaters before moving to home video. I tell ya there were crickets chirping in the theater I went to. Kermit would have had a feast! :) It really does play much better on DVD. At least by a letter grade, maybe more. There's a level of annoyance that occurs sitting...

    It's a Great Day to Be a Muppet Fan!

    Sigh. I don’t see why you choose to misinterpret most of my posts to some other extreme, but hopefully this will help. My reply was in response to MelissaY1's erroneous claim that the classic Muppetyness was missing in Muppet media today when it is very apparent in the recent web clips. Fans...

    Super Scooter's Muppet Fan Art

    I am really digging this style! :D The fact that you can hand draw all of this and only use Paint is the sign of a true artist in a day of overworked Photoshopping. This is great stuff. :)

    It's a Great Day to Be a Muppet Fan!

    :sympathy: No need to be so grumpy and ALL CAPS about it. Go to YouTube. Go to Muppets.com. If the Muppets can't entertain a fan there then they never could. That's the Muppety goodness of the future, DC was the speedbump along the way. ;)

    State of the Muppets - An Opinion

    From a technical standpoint Muppets from Space was the worst reviewed and poorest box office performing film of the franchise. It also cost twice as much as Muppet Christmas Carol, yet had no original music. The tug-of-war between the studio and the writers killed it. I actually cried in the...

    It's a Great Day to Be a Muppet Fan!

    I see this new Disney push as a different solid approach. The few people that believe Studio DC represents the future of Muppet content really aren't paying attention. I have decided to stay excited and try to refrain from engaging these perpetual naysayers. Bring on the election special...

    State of the Muppets - An Opinion

    I think now is the best time to be a Muppet fan. Disney's efforts have been half-hearted at best in the past. They barely promoted Muppet Treasure Island when that came out. Muppets Tonight got buried beneath the kiddie TGIF Urkel fodder on ABC. Many fans didn't even know it was ever on...
