My problem is, do I pay $600 to alter film, or live with it and accept that there are some who will draw the conclusion that it is some kind of self-promotion? Dealt with that before on a line we did called House of the Dead where one of the monsters was named "Ken". Got accused by some folks of picking that character because of my name. Didn't, but what can you do? So I may have to in this case keep it as Kenneth and just deal with it. I was told Kenneth initially by Henson and as far as I know that's what it is. Haven't been told anything different by them so I gotta stick to what I got, know what I mean?

LOL the way we are talking about Lew Zealand's fish is like if it were to be a fig it's self in it's own package! once you take the fish out you can call it whatever you want;-) Lew has many fish, so he's bond to have many diffent names. pletty of fish in the sea!

too bad for the newsman's live TV, that would have been a cool one!

you know the discussion of the Newman's desk eating him reminds me of something...does anyone rememeber the name of the Sheriff that the Newmsna quotes in that piece....Sheriff David Goelz. There's also a building in MCC marked "Mickelwhite's" which is Micehal Caine's real last name. Remember the dreaded crocidiel god Rezal Evad Gib. hold it up to a mirror...Big Dave Lazer. And the spells Tony Randall casts on Scooter...Yrrej, Noslen, Tnuh Drahcir, Zleog Divad Oznog. All inside jokes. So let's say Ken is lying(I believe you, pumpkin, but go with me on this.) and the fish really IS named after Ken. It wouldn't think it any different than any other inside joke......In fact, Ken, I think you might have been set-up. Did you ask for a name or did they just volunteer one? :wink:

Hey,
While on the topic of inside jokes, I just watched TMTM for the first time in several years, recently, and noticed that two of the dogs in the pound with Rowlf are named Jim and Frank. I figured others knew this, but that it was worth bringing up. See ya. take care.

Hey, Matleo, buddy, we've got to get you into an AA meeting. Your posts keep showing up with misspelled slurred speech errors in them! Just kidding you. But seriously, Ken says that the blister packaging for Rowlf will be huge because of the piano. Does this mean that there won't be space for another small additional accessory? Are both the candelabra and Beethoven bust eliminated from the figure's package? Will either of these pieces be included with the regular version of Rowlf?

Have a great weekend, the Count.

Ken,

I dont recall Kenneth, the main Fish was Connie Sue.

But it doesnt matter anyway, Let Ken have the glory of having the fish named after him !

Once its out the Blister you can call it what you like, Just dont call it late for Dinner.

See ya
