Hensonville City 2011

[The Count]

*Watches TV waiting to call up my friend, hoping he's got the visuals I asked for to get back to haunter work tomorrow.
And you'll have to wait till next week for my July oneshot, as it commemorates a special date.

Rhonda: Bastille Day?

Er...rats know about Bastille Day?

Rhonda: Sure! Ya think humans were the only guys in French prisons? Hmf.

*Still pondering BriWi as a Muppet*

Rhonda: You are seriously WEIRD. You know that, right?
-----------------

 

[The Count]

BriWi? Oh, probably meant Brian Williams.
And no, it's something that'll see a whole cast of Muppets though.
*Hopes to read something good from fave authors.

Kelly (on the nebulizer)

Cotterpin (mails Newsmanfan): We're hoping to finish off that story sometime this week. What with pollution and stress and everything, Kel's not too keen on doing much of anything today.

What was that 'ding' sound? Did anyone else hear that?

Rhonda: That was your email, Shill Gates.

Oh! Oh...er...um...

Rhonda: Not used to the sound, huh? *smirks*

I'll have you know lots of people email me. I get tips about stories all the time!

Rhonda: Uh huh.

Uh...just...just last year, I had an email from someone on the City Council, informing me of an important decision the Council made behind closed doors without consulting the general electorate!

Newsie, really? That's cool that you have insider sources.

Rhonda: Please. It was an order for sandwiches -- the dolt on the Council had the wrong email address.

Um...oh.

*silence a long moment*

But at least she HAD my email! She HAD heard of me!

Rhonda: You will note I am not making any comparisons to Jack Sparrow here.

What?! Are you, Rhonda, saying that food isn't important? *Shakes head, never thought I'd see the day.
*Laughs at the Colbert Report repeat. Man, he's on a Muppet tear tonight. Using the clip of Billy Crystal from The Princess Bride for the almost death of the Pakistani president... Sicko penguins making out in the cold cannons of the arctic. :zany holds up a sign that shouldn't be flashed up on these forums. Jim Henson's Stoner Babies... And terrorist monster furniture, now there's a story is familiar with. And he's even threatening to cut off diplomatic relations with Sweden to obtain their twitter throne. *Cries out, no! Don't put out of work, he's proud of his Sweetish meatball heritage!

Colbert's doing Muppety things? *preens, smoothing down his cuffs and tie* Knew some of it would rub off when I chatted with him.

Rhonda: I never said FOOD wasn't the important thing around here...

*In voice: Oh good. Then maybe you'd want this apple pie cupcake from the club?
UD: Yes, Mr. Colbert was quite droll earlier, on yesterday's show, we caught the encore apparition.
BTW: Great chapter Kris, it left me grinning.
Dark Night, oh-ho, that's 1, 1 chucklesome costume wariation.
Now if I could figure out what to do about my spider problem.
*Uncle D knocks and leaves a wrapped tin filled with flan at Apt 5 for Ru and her TMS primetime players.

 

[The Count]

Ah, the 4th of July. Looking forward to watching the hotdog eating competition we're hosting down at the Bat, Bolt & Skull later today.
Yes, I'm just as excited to be part of the official talliers.
UD: Don't forget the fireworks display you allowed to set off tonight.
Yep... So I can't think of a better way spending today than listening to my completed Muppet music album honoring all fifty states.

Happy Independence Day to all manner of Muppets and their friends and fans out there!

*Tries to get showered to go down to the club before the storm starts outside.
