Hey, I've been trying to get a couple characters of mine copyrighted. After going to the Library of Congress I'm stilkl confused as to whether or not puppet characters are classified under visual or performing arts. Does anyone know how Henson goes about copyrighting their characters? Any...

Wow... what a great description! ;) --"Scary" Larry Wolf

We have no more Hope :cry: We'll miss you, Honey -- that is, Bob (I beg your pardon, I hardly knew ya!) --"Scary" Larry Wolf

Wouldn't it be better to run a small plastic tube from the bottom of the glass and under the table? That way you wouldn't have to ruin a table by putting a hole in it, you could just cover the tube with an old tablecloth or placemat. --"Scary" Larry Wolf

When people see me working with puppets and find out about my Muppet love :flirt: they usually smirk and think "Ha! Goofy Kid." I picture them thinking of me as what I call a "Muppet Nerd" -- someone who has an obsession with anything and everything that has to do with Muppets. If you really...

That is one awesome looking puppet. It looks like it could have been IN the Foam Book!

I don't think this confirms anything, but I don't think he was a strict vegitarian after reading in Carroll Spinney's new book that he invited him to go to a seafood restaurant. Or is fish OK to eat if you're a vegan? Maybe it's just not red meat that you're supposed to eat. --"Scary" Larry...

I had a run-in with this last summer at an art camp I was volunteering at. There were about 100 kids, so each of the volunteers had to keep track of about 5. In my group the first day, one of the kids told me he wanted to be a magician when he grew up He asked me if I was going to be an...

I never did understand why they went off with the "babies" thing. I mean we were shown "how the Muppets really got started (well, sort of approximately how it happened)" in TMM and then they tried to spring the notion of them having grown up in a nursery together. I don't like the thought...

Woo-hoo!!! This is something I've got to share with all my MC friends -- I just got THE COOLEST JOB of my life (so far)!!!!! I got hired by the mom of one of the guys I graduated with to help put together a whole puppet ministry thing for their HUGE church throughout the month of July. There...

Happy Birthday, Jerry!!! You have got to be the most versatile of the Muppet performers -- you do such a wide range of characters. You just astound me. thanks for so many years of blessing us with all your talents. Stay young!! --"Scary" Larry Wolf

All I have to say is this: "Smoking eez very bad for you, OK." --Pepe, MFS I doubt that means the company promotes smoking --"Scary" Larry Wolf

So, all you puppeteers out there, you couldn't have all been born with a puppet on your hand -- how did you first develop an interest in puppetry? As for myself, I had made paper bag puppets ever since I was about 5 after having copied a paper dinosaur head from a book at the library and...

I saw that today and it was SOOO great!!! I kept anticipating them making a rediculous mistake in their judgments and placing Kermit somewhere in the 30s -- but he was second only to Lassie as the greatest TV animal! :zany: Of course, we already knew he was tops, but it's great to see that...

Did Frank skip out on this one? Cuz' I can't see him. And is that David Rudman in the window to the left of Jerry? --"Scary" Larry Wolf

Speaking of Danny, how come I never notice him on the MC boards anymore? I haven't seen him since the "Delphi Days". --"Scary" Larry Wolf

Have you guys ever been reminded of something related to the Muppets by something that occurred in reality? (For some people this may not apply as some people on these boards may have no concept of "reality". I've heard it's just a rumor.) It's so weird when it happens because I'm usually...

What a coincidence, Larry! That's exactly what I'm doing! --"Scary" Larry Wolf

Woo-hoo!!!!! I'm finally done with 12 years of torture and can fulfill dreams now. Actually, my high school dream was to graduate with honors, and it actually came true! I completed Cum Laude -- and if something like that can happen to someone as stupid as I am, anything's possible...

Fran also starred in Frank Oz's film "What About Bob?" as Richard Dreyfus' cousin. I've heard her read some of the stories on "Reading Rainbow" too. Oh, and there's a cameo of her in the SS special "Peter and the Wolf" -- Baby Bear's family sits in front of a whole group of SS performers...
