    Who Played the Frank Biondo Muppet?

    I watched part of the Wormadega episode on YouTube today, and was wondering if anyone could tell who performed cameraman Frank Biondo's Muppet doppleganger? I'd guess Kevin, since he sounded kind of like Clifford, but Kevin was obviously already performing Elmo in that scene, so I doubt it was...

    Left-handed Muppeteers

    Jerry Nelson's worked left-handed before, either for his half of Two-Headed Monster, or due to the shoulder injury he sustained in the 70s that forced him to perform left-handed for a while. Also, in the early days of SST, the way Oscar's set was laid out forced Caroll Spinney to work Oscar...

    Well, you can ask my mother about that... she had hers a couple of years after I was born, and she said not having periods anymore was a big plus... UNFORTUNATELY, she says it DOES come with a lot of side-effects, including short-term memory loss and insomnia (both of which hit her hard). But to...

    Now what's going on with YouTube?

    I laos forgot to mention that the new Wikipedia is also, and not surprisingly, significantly slower now. I think the worst of it all is still MySpace Facebookifying themselves, ever since then, there was no more speed - it sometimes takes up to two minutes for your homepage on MySpace to...

    None Like it Hot: The "I Hate the Heat" Club

    It's actually worse today than it was yesterday; even though the temps have dropped (though not by much), the humidity is up, which makes it very painful just to step outside -- like walking into a room and getting slapped in the face with a large blanket that had been in the dryer for over an hour.

    What song can you not get out of your head?

    At the moment, the theme song from The Great Space Coaster.

    How would it be better to kill a defenseless baby? What would be better is for people to quit having unprotected sex when they know they're not supposed to be doing it in the first place. Whatever happened to saving yourself for marriage? And on top of that, there's this thing called "birth...

    Found this on Google, not sure if it's been posted here before or not, but I thought it was worth a share. http://s140.photobucket.com/albums/r16/Travellingpat/Autographs/lovelady.jpg He's changed a bit, hasn't he?

    The "I Saw Something REALLY Weird Today" Thread

    Okay... this isn't something really weird I saw today, but something really weird I HEARD today - apparently Johnny Weir is going to be a judge for the upcoming annual Miss USA pageant... Does anybody besides me find it ironic they keep bringing in gay men to judge female beauty pageants? I...

    Now what's going on with YouTube?

    Well, that's why it would behoove these sites to create cellphone/palm device ONLY versions of their sites. Not ALL site do this, but they should, I've seen some with this feature, and it's rather useful.

    None Like it Hot: The "I Hate the Heat" Club

    Funny, another friend of mine from Colorado said you guys didn't have any cicadas. ;) I HATE those little buggers and their all-night singing binges... them and katydids are the worst down here... but at least cicadas don't end up in your house when you least expect them to

    Aw gee, have you guys seen how YT has rearranged video comments now? You can't even read them, they're cluttered into no kind of organization whatsoever. :smirk: EDIT: Okay, apparently Wikipedia's already went ahead with their new look... the layout isn't much different, but now the text is...

    ENOUGH ALREADY! ! ! Actually, Facebook has never changed its look, but yes, MySpace has been Facebookifying themselves for the past several months, as has YouTube. And let us not forget Yahoo! changed their homepage last year as well. Still, enough is enough!

    Because the cell phone has become a necessity for everyday people, much like computers and internet. I had my first cell phone at 11 (back when cell phones were big and bulky and didn't have video games and apps and such)... but I was RESPONSIBLE. I kept it under wraps, and I only used it...

    Master Insert Tapes

    You know, I got to thinking... from time to time, there's obviously at least two different versions of the same sketches that were recorded - biggest evidence is that there's two slightly different versions of the banned "I Want a Monster to Be My Friend" posted on YouTube, as well as the...

    The Post-Hooper Generation: Your Thoughts on the Man Behind the Store

    It seems like a vast majority of us here are of the post-Hooper generation of SST, like myself personally (being born in 1989, a good eight years after the explanation of Mr. Hooper's death), and it's gotten me to thinking - for those of us who grew up after the Hooper years, what were your...
