    That would be great! I've never seen this book.

    Ben Stiller clip of, "People in Your Neighborhood"

    It must be a PC thing. "Postman" signifies that a man is doing the job. "Mail carriers" is not gender specific. Just like we are supposed to say "fire fighter" instead of fireman these days.

    Muppet Rides

    Just be patient. Disney only just bought the Muppets and they have a lot of plans for Muppet stuff. I mean, just look what they have already done so far: -Kermit, Piggy, and Gonzo co-hosting Annual Disney Christmas Parade -a television movie special "Muppets' Wizard of Oz" -Muppets...

    Who's line is it...anyway?

    Yeah, its not always about how you sound though. It also has to do with how well you can come up with something clever in rhyme and to a beat. Colin is an example of this. He is known for speaking the hoedown rather than sing it, and he used to be really bad at that game and to make up for it...

    Snuffy - If I was a Cloud

    Yeah, this one was on a week or so ago. I loved the song he sang. Snuffy has been given some great numbers to sing. Very catchy and snappy. Very vaudeville. I don't have an MP3 but would also like one. I don't know when exactly it was done, but I am sure it was fairly recent. Too recent...

    Feedback on my puppets

    These are very nice looking. I especially like the two on top.

    Your Thoughts: TMS Season 1 DVD

    I like that Statler didn't talk because he was hilarious making weird faces while Waldorf was talking. Its like Waldorf is strangely helping to promote the show and Statler is making fun of him. I am not shocked by the Sesame Street images used. It was an important part of Jim Henson and...

    So you want to audition for the Muppets?

    Oh, I totally am understanding what you are saying.

    So you want to audition for the Muppets?

    I dunno. They must have their reasons for it. It just occured to me though that this sorta sounds like hiring all those mall Santas.

    What did you think?

    Geez, there are so many threads discussing the DVD set I can't decide which one to stick with. Anyway, so far I think it is pretty cool. I liked the way they put Statler and Waldorf in the menu and talking to us. I think each one of the discs has 2 S&W dialogues. I'm glad I waited before I...

    What was he original Gonzo's nose made of?

    Anyone recall how Gonzo stepped out from being such a minor character and becoming more of a regular on TMS? :concern: And also, what caused the constant change of his look?

    I am in need of serious help. :(

    Foz is right. Don't be afraid to open up to your friends and especially your girlfriend. It is very important. I know that it is something that I need to work on doing as well. Its really easy to bottle things up because of pride or something, but it is always okay to ask for help. There is...

    EM silent no more!!!

    Well, some people claim they are too dated. Whatever. My theory is that since we have lost performers whether due to death or retirement, they have no voice. We like to see them all interact with each other and if half of them are voiceless, then they maybe they all should be. Because they...

    Sex and Violence

    I forgot, one other thing that was interesting was that blue monster character that looked like a creepy version of Grover. It was like Grover on drugs. Anyone else notice this? Anyway, aside from Bert's cameo, were there any other appearances by Sesame Street characters in the first season...

    Sex and Violence

    I watched "Sex and Violence" last night for the first time and I didn't like it very much at all. It actually bored me for the most part. Not funny and very slow. I am so glad that they didn't stick with that format for the actual Muppet Show. Statler and Waldorf work better in the balcony...

    So you want to audition for the Muppets?

    The current Muppeteers won't be replaced. That's silly. What would the point be in that, unless they died or retired or something. Bill Barretta is still new to the Muppets and Eric Jacobson just joined the main performers. Steve Whitmire is far from retiring.

    Muppet College Dorms: The Next Semester

    Your Thoughts: TMS Season 1 DVD

    Thanks to Mrs. P and That Announcer for your well written statements. It is true that we can't blame Disney for something they did not guarantee. They tried to get it all but they couldn't. There is only so much they can do, but they decided to give us the set anyway, for us. Disney is not...

    Muppet Rides

    Yes, Disney World is more elaborate because it is so huge! It is pretty much its own zip code. Walt Disney bought so much land out there in Florida and a lot of it hasn't even been built on yet. I went to DW once a few years ago and loved it. There is so much to do and see and a great family...
