    Questions about anything

    Well, I don't know what I did, but I managed to get video from my memory card working in the storyboard/timeline portion of Windows Movie Maker. Actually I think I might know what it was (when watching in Windows Media Player and clicking on various things to click on I clicked on "video" which...

    You Ever Notice...and What's the Deal...

    Okay, there haven't been any "have you seen this episode of The Simpsons"-type posts for a few months (I keep meaning to see how many pages back it's been since the last one about a speciffic Simpsons episode), so I think it should be okay to ask about a certain one I wonder about.... In the...

    You Ever Notice...and What's the Deal...

    I thought that programs produced in widescreen were supposed to be seen that way on flatscreen TVs, but I've watched many programs on flatscreen TVs where it's obvious that you can't see the whole screen. For example, even on a wider flatscreen TV, when watching Sesame Street part of the episode...

    Questions about anything

    Yes. In fact I had it in storyboard mode first, and storyboard mode doesn't have that audio-only layer. And just now I put in some video files that had already been on my computer to make sure I wasn't suddenly having a problem with all video when it comes to editing.

    Wow, I haven't seen any of these recent squirrell things.

    Questions about anything

    Sometime ago I asked about why my memory cards wouldn't work on my laptop. After doing a bit of searching online and being stumped in figuring out what to do, I thought I'd figured it out... I read somewhere that I could reformat the files on the memory card, which I did after putting it in a...

    You Ever Notice...and What's the Deal...

    How come Geico tends to have so many different mascots and gimmicks at the same time? That Gecko's been around for too long (I haven't seen any Gecko commercials lately, though... has he finally been retired?), and yet multiple different marketing gimmicks have been done at the same time. Like...

    Little things we've noticed

    I've noticed that whenever Sully appears in a scene where several characters sing, he he tends to not sing along with the others, instead just dancing to the tune or whatever, keeping his mouth shut. Examples include when Tito Puente sang "El Timbalo" (and I might be mispelling that), there's a...

    Kinect Sesame Street TV coming soon

    I was looking at the forum part of Muppet Wiki and saw that the game includes an app where you can watch a large variety of clips, including many classic clips. I read that the app even arranges them by season (as well as "classic clips", "celebrities", and so on). And I read that it even...

    Longhorn and Shorthorn - two of the rarest characters ever

    I'd seen that website and contract where Jim gave 51% of the characters to your grandfather, and was confused. At the time I didn't realize it was the rights to the characters, I thought it was for a portion of the Muppets (as in all characters and the company, even though Jim didn't officially...

    TV Tropes

    It's sad if TV Tropes really is wanting to avoid any tropes being named for programs. I can't imagine what kind of title Flanderization could be renamed to.

    You Ever Notice...and What's the Deal...

    Yesterday I was looking at some old Mad Magazine parodies (from the book Mad About the Eighties), and there's a few things that struck me as odd. In the Taxi parody "Taxing", at the end Louie tells the cabbies he wants them to give some people free rides, and they object at first (Bobby...

    You Ever Notice...and What's the Deal...

    Often I go to stores with automatic self-check-out machines, and it'll be common for some of them to be closed. What's the point of closing an automatic check-out machine? I can see the regular lanes being closed due to not having enough cashiers, but the automatic ones should be open 24/7...

    E-mail from Fred Garbo

    Whenever I read that part of Kevin's book about failed characters, I can't help but feel like he's saying Dexter was a failed character regardless of him being too difficult to perform. Just because he was a difficult character to perform doesn't mean that he wasn't liked by the kids or was a...

    Your Thoughts: Sesame Street Season 44

    I was thinking the same thing. I had trouble paying attention to the street story, but Cookie Crumby Pictures and Abby's Flying Fairy School were good. I also enjoyed the yoga instructor in those bits with Murray. She sure was hot.

    Warner Home Video now distributing Sesame Workshop DVDs

    So it looks like this is going to have the street story where Baby Bear and Chris turn into bees. That one was already included in the Elmo's Rainbow DVD. I guess this will be the first time a street story was released on multiple DVD compilations (the letter of the month club street story with...

    Henson Biography available for pre-order

    Well I suppose they couldn't get any clips owned by Disney or Sesame Workshop. It would have been great if they included some Jim footage from Henson's Place and Sesame Street: 20 and Still Counting.
