Interesting corollary...but not quite, Gonzo's Hobbit. I was speaking purely and fantastically hypothetically. Imagine animate, live Muppets as, perhaps, a separate species or type of actual life-form. Given the ones we know from shows and movies, which one (if any) would you want to date? With...
Part 9
The rodents scattered as soon as Gina opened the apartment door. At least, the Newsman noted, they hadn’t trashed the place again since he made them clean it up. Gina set him on the carpet and looked around. “So…all yours, huh?” she asked.
Glumly, with a soft gobble in reply, the...
LOL a fellow Mystie! EX-cellent!
Yes, that's the one, my bad. The pulp trash of a book "Outlaw" was based on is indeed "Outlaw of Gor." The whole series of those are like really, really bad Conan...
Glad you're liking this so far. Would happily welcome reviews, comments, critiques or...
Songs were fab! Got music for 'em?
I too have to use MicroSloth at present. Tip: justify all your borders to the left (not centered), and then space between every paragraph (new person talking, change in action, change in scene, etc). If you then copy/paste it seems to show up better.
Who's your Muppet crush?
OK, wasn't sure where to post this; I trust the Count will correct this n00b if I overstep!
Was just wondering, having now seen some discussion on relationships between Muppet and non-Muppet characters in fanfics, whether anyone else here is as oddball as me. To wit...
Palance...oh don't get me started...ever see "Outlaw of Gor?"
Thanks for the romance writing tip. I shall check out both.
Glad you liked the epidemic. I had that whole scene envisioned long before it went on paper...er, screen.
HamHock, your songs are fantastic! I could easily picture the whole gang singing along in every one.
This is fun. And thank you for finally formatting your entries with spaces to separate individual paragraphs...a personal peeve of mine.
I laughed hard at the Elmo cameo. (Not a fan of...
Gonzo goes gonzo! I wondered if anyone else around here knew that reference... VERY cool DrTooth!
I'm a huge fan of both Hunter and of Ralph Steadman's art. Nicely done! :cool:
Part 8
“Scooter, what’s with the turkey?”
The gofer paused by the bird, a plump thing sitting on one of the crates near the short flight of stairs to the rear exit. “Oh, uh, I think the Swedish Chef’s using it,” he replied.
Kermit shook his head. “He doesn’t have very good luck with...
Fellow scribes and Muppaphiles, have any of the rest of you noticed that certain rules always seem to apply to any show, film, or story where classic Muppets are involved? In writing my new fanfic (“Love Reign O’er News” – yes, you should be hearing Roger Daltrey’s voice screamin’ it out right...
The day Congress announces pay cuts and elimination of all perks, I will be the first to post THAT here.
Actually, nothing particularly odd has happened to me for days...in and of itself strange...I'm listening for the other shoe to drop...
(Yeah, I picked Newsie as a fave for a reason.)
Hah... and here I've been deliberately making my fic a PG...
Then again, I don't know how many others besides this sick puppy really want to see a detailed love scene between a Muppet and a normal human.
Hmmm...new thread? hee hee hee
But seriously folks. Giant chicken love! Who WOULDN'T...
Hee hee hee. VERY cute. Reminds me of the '50s "giant" films...no not the James Dean one! I mean classics like "Attack of the 50-Foot Chicken" --er, "Woman", that is. Or "War on the Colossal Poultry"...you get the drift.
Very fun, Count!;)
Part 7
Wednesday night came and went with the usual friendly anarchy in the theatre, but no News Flash. On Thursday night, the newswire went off, and no sooner had the Newsman dashed onstage with the bulletin when Scooter heard a knock at the backstage door. Opening it, he found the odd young...
two weddings!
Agreed: do it twice. Maybe go down to the county courthouse for the legalese stuff, then throw a big "wedding" and see if you can get someone (Frogpuppeteer maybe?) to "perform" the ceremony as Kermit for you.
My mother and stepdad were of different faiths, so they had two...
Part 6
Monday was the weekly “dark day,” the only day with no shows running at the Muppet Theatre. Tuesday night, Scooter bustled around turning on lights and unlocking doors as usual. When he switched on the lights in the green room, a mutter came from the couch below the landing. Scooter...
Part 5
Two nights passed without incident; the Newsman paced backstage, from time to time walking a circuit of the entire area from the wings to the green room, but saw no sign of the enigmatic young woman. Every time the back door opened, he hurried to see who it was, and more than a few...
warm fuzzies
Awww...you guys are making me blush. I'd forgotten what it was like to have people who don't even know me like my work...thank you!
I have been rewatching eps from seasons 2 and 3 of TMS about every other night right before I launch into that night's writing to keep the tone...
Part 4
“Scooter! I thought I said lose the ghosts!”
The swooping things careened into the audience, where shouts of panic rose. The spirits laughed and dove, and people began heading for the exits. Alarmed, Kermit looked from that to the spooks, then back to Scooter. “Whose idea was this? We...
