    Henson closes NY office

    I'm reluctant to say this at all, but these sorts of closures and cutbacks are always financial streamlining, normally due to fiduciary distress. There tends inevitably to be a heartless feeling to it. I've always viewed JHC as having a New York City heart and inspiration. Everything grew...

    Has anyone ever lost a pet?

    Vets don't just put creatures down. There had to have been a condition justifying it. But your treatment by them sounds harsh. Just as with your people doctors, always ask questions when you have them. Make them communicate with you. It's your money, your life, your pets. You have to be...

    That is generally not considered a good sign.

    Happy Singles Thread!

    That does make it harder. We're lucky to live in an area which, while it's all very small towns, there's a high ratio of single people just chugging along on their own. So, no one thinks twice about it if you're single, and you can usually find someone to go have a drink or six. People help...

    Happy Singles Thread!

    Totally content. Was married many many moons, have had my share of dates, etc., not doing anything at all in that department now by choice, I'm most happy with it. It's the right place for me to be at the moment, no question. It leaves me with more to give to creativity and other aspects of...

    Help with Fabric Selection

    They're totally durable. We're constantly moving our puppets around, in and out of the house, cars, etc., and you'd never know it to look at them. The decorations stay on forever. I'm sure there's a name for the fabrics I described but I don't know what it would be. Some are stretchy, some...

    Commercials you love or hate

    When I was little, my older siblings always had the T.V. on. I absorbed the ad jingles without realizing it. Each week, in the grocery store, I'd be in the cart being rolled along and I'd sing out loud every jingle to every item I spotted on the store shelves. Drove my mother bats. (...

    Pet Peeves

    In our area, the local news shows always, always do this: At nine a.m., in ominous announcer-voice - HOW YOUR HOUSE IS KILLING YOU. News at eleven (p.m.). AX-MURDERER ESCAPED FROM LOCAL PRISON - News at eleven (p.m.). They say awful things and then make you wait till the middle of...

    Henson closes NY office

    If true, this is terrible news. There would be our Hensonian Museum. There are massive grants and funding mechanisms for that sort of thing - it could, and should, absolutely be turned into a museum without the family having to spend money on it. And, they can start their own trust which could...

    Commercials you love or hate

    I should never, ever be on the forum when I'm tired. It isn't Jingle Bells, it's "We Wish You A Merry Christmas". The kisses. And I knew that. Good grief, I've only seen it 8 million times. There are many awards in the ad industry, for all media, print, T.V., etc. The most prestigious...

    Commercials you love or hate

    Love - the Hershey Kisses performing Jingle Bells. It runs every holiday season and has won every advertising award there is.

    What do we call ourselves?

    Why is that derogatory in the U.K.? That's terrible. Your idea is awesomely awesome. (That's a good thing. Is awesome also bad over there?? Geez.) Many United People Promoting Enjoyment Throughouttheworld :cool: :cool: :cool:

    Weird Diseases

    You are too young to be getting these, unless you have some particular health issues that predicate it. Normally age 45 is the recommended start age for flu shots. People only get a true influenza every ten years or so in their lives, with shots or without. Most of what folks think is flu is...

    I love the little veggies blinking so cheerfully at me. I want to hug them.

    Where were you, 11/22?

    News In the old days, before radio and T.V., people didn't know anything till days after things had happened and they didn't trust news till they saw it in the newspaper in black and white in front of them. It must have been much easier on the psyche, I'm sure.

    Help with Fabric Selection

    There are fabrics available in any decent fabric store or outlet, usually a felt-like or smooth surface texture, with zillions of small flexible shining/iridescent bits on them, in oval shapes, etc., in colors contrasting the background. These show up beautifully on-camera and are most lizardy...
