    Problem with vanishing posts!

    I posted up here last night to say that I'd noticed my post count had dropped by about a dozen posts since the afternoon. The post I made has now vanished! What the hey?!

    Er...did anyone else just notice a site outage?

    All requests to forum.muppetcentral.com were being refused for a few minutes. I got either 404 errors, or else redirected to what looked like a standard ISP 'Website not set up' page. This is the second time this month I've had this - is it just me?

    Incredibly, it's actually warmer outside than it is in my office! :( I wish I was outside...anyway, I thought I'd share this with y'all: 50 degrees - New Yorkers turn on the heat. People in Scotland plant gardens. 40 degrees - Californians shiver uncontrollably. People in Scotland...

    Build a better mousetrap!

    Heh heh heh...I did it! I've been trying to catch the little devils for four years now, and they have proven stubbornly resistant to every form of trap and bait, even to the point of muscling up to the trap and removing the bait. Until now! I left a half-full bucket of water in the kitchen...

    TMS with Connie Stevens

    Hi, I'm searching for a PAL copy of the opening shot (the zoom in to the TMS logo) from this episode. I'd prefer one with no on-screen logos, subtitles, etc, but so long as the top-right corner is clear of these, it'll do nicely :-) If anyone can help, please drop me an email. Thanks!

    Looking for original opening titles for the Paul Williams TMS ep

    Hi, As the subject says! I'm only really in need of the soundtrack (in English :-), but I'd prefer a copy on VHS/SVHS rather than cassette if possible. If you can help me out, please contact me. I have a fair amount of material to offer in trade, so I'm sure we could work something out :-)...

    Hi, I've recently had the chance to compare two versions of the Harvey Korman episode of TMS, one in English, the other dubbed into German. The video recording of 'Halfway Down The Stairs' is somewhat different from one show to the other - the camera angles and lighting change completely. Can...
