    Star Trek

    I think Troi's hair was sometimes twice as big as that little number! To be fair though, the men wore it too - although only extras in the background. I think they referred to it as a "skant" or something (skirt/pant). It was supposed to be a unisex thing, but it got completely dropped after...

    Great Source For Puppet Costumes

    I just found out about a great source for puppet costumes, Build-A-Bear Workshop which is a chain of stores that sell customized Teddy Bears and Teddy Bear accessories. They have tons of cute stuff. It's all made for 12" Teddy Bears so their products may be too small for some puppets but it's...

    Puppet Show Needed in New Jersey

    Another (paying!) puppet opportunity. This one I just heard about via Puptcrit: The Garden State Puppetry Guild in conjunction with the Penny Pretzel Playhouse in South Orange New Jersey is seeking a puppet performance for its March meeting. The performance will be open to all guild...

    Your Hope for the Future?

    I think the direction the JHC is going in is positive. Progress is not happening maybe as fast as fans would like, but indications are that work is going on behind the scenes. It's clear from the layoffs and office closings that the company was in dire straights and not on a financially...

    Greenpeace Blasts Decision to Exclude Tongass from Roadless Rule

    Thanks for reminding us about that Beebers. MLK Day is celebrated up here, but's it's not an official holiday (though it should be) and I had almost forgot about it because I am so busy. I am doing an educational show in schools right now that deals with prejudice and conflict resolution and...

    Greenpeace Blasts Decision to Exclude Tongass from Roadless Rule

    I don't have a congressman. :cry: Up here we're forced to just sit uncomfortably and watch like things like this unfold like an anti-environmental horror film. Well, that and act morally superior while making sarcastic comments. It's no wonder Pat Buchanan hates Canadians. :P

    Hair on her heady-head-head

    :o Thanks. Like Phantom said, I just used her, I didn't build her. You should have seen some of the stuff I used to have when I had a real puppet building business. I had 200+ puppets - it was quite a collection. Everything from little hand puppets to Audrey II. Storage became an issue...

    I heard about a guy who did that! :P

    New Puppet Theatre in D.C.

    I'm in Canada and not actually performing a lot of live shows right now. I've been doing more directing and training than actual performing for the past year or so. I'm putting together three live shows at the moment for various groups. I am doing one show that is touring locally here in the...

    Greenpeace Blasts Decision to Exclude Tongass from Roadless Rule

    To be fair Phantom, this was a politically-themed thread from the start and it's posted in the General Discussion area. As long as everyone is respectful (Bush-bashing aside LOL) the discussion is within the forum guidelines (so far at least). If some members dislike political discussions...

    Greenpeace Blasts Decision to Exclude Tongass from Roadless Rule

    I was kind of just teasing about Wolfowitz, but I've always found it interesting how the U.S. system has only two effective parties (since Reform and Green have almost no influence) and you're required to register with one party or as an independent. You register without any affliation here...

    Puppeteers Wanted in NY State

    Found this puppet opportunity online: The puppets are animatronic and don't worry if you've not done this type of puppeteering before- we'll teach you. We will be filming in Kingston, NY. Kingston is located approximately 2 hours from New York City by bus or by car. We can't offer any pay...

    New Puppet Theatre in D.C.

    Hi all, Just wanted to share that I'm hearing good things about a new puppet theatre opening near Washington D.C. - The Puppet Co. in Glen Echo, MD. If you're from the area you might be familiar with the Puppet Co's existing location. If so you'll want to check out their new place (built from...

    You're right, by then Paul Wolfowitz will probably be President behind and in front of the scenes!

    Self Doubt and the Begining Puppeteer/Puppet Builder

    Hey Scooter, I was looking at your site. Did you know that Uzzy looks just like Mona from Nana'lan? What's the URL of your blog/journal?

    That's right - no Science Officer. They just have a shrink in a short skirt.

    Greenpeace Blasts Decision to Exclude Tongass from Roadless Rule

    I feel for my friends south of the border. Kerry, Dean et al don't stand much of chance this fall, but just think - only four more years of this goofball in office. Then it'll be Cheney! :eek: :eek:

    Henson talking to Disney and Viacom for potential partnership deals

    Luke's mention of Rhino is interesting. They're not the biggest player around, but they've done an excellent job marketing a lot of genre and cult properties like MST3k. They're becoming bigger and bigger every year. Landing a deal with the Muppets would be a huge coup for them and as a smaller...

    Which Star Trek Captin are you?

    Picard, but I was aiming for Sisko. I mean sure Kirk gets all the women, but Benjamin's a semi-god!

    Questions about Region-Free DVD Players

    Where did you pick up the DVD player? I'm actually looking at picking up my first real DVD player (up until now we've just been playing movies on the PS2) and I want to buy a region-free model.
