    How do I get a job as a Muppeteer?

    More than likely when the day comes, Henson/Disney will recast Dave's characters from within. It has worked very well with Frank's characters (Piggy, Fozzie, Grover, Bert), Carroll Spinney (Big Bird), and hopefully with Jerry's characters as well. Recasting is so much more than just a voice or...

    Stickys: Too Much of a Good Thing?

    The Weinerville thread is sticky because a member specifically asked me to keep it that way. I said I would for a week or so. I agree with your assessment concerning the use of sticky threads. I will go through the forum now and make some changes. Please let me know if you think things are better.

    Your Thoughts: Sesame Street Monopoly

    I know Barnes and Noble will have it this fall. Media Play should be getting it some time. Other than that it will probably be speciality stores and the like. If you can't find it locally and really want it soon, I'd get it on-line.
