You guys think Walter would get a kick out of reading this thread? I mean, imagine it, you're a lifelong fan of a group, you join the group and then you suddenly have a fan following of your own :smile:...and they're nameing themselves after you.
I bet he'd be delighted. He'd probably even faint. I just saw the movie again, and I've learned that every time I see it for yet another time my love and appreciation for Walter grows.

Something I was thinking of...would this term be applied to all-around Henson fans or just Muppet fans? (Wouldn't it be cool to see Walter have a moment over the Labyrinth movie?) And has someone thrown the word "Hensonite" around at all? For some reaosn I feel as if I've heard that somewhere?

:confused: But of course! Hensonite was discovered back in the '60s by a crack team of researchers delving into talk-shows of the era. It is represented on the periodic table of elements by the symbol Hn, and its most conspicuous properties are volatility, adaptability --

:eek: Mee mo mo mee mee!

:confused: Yes, Beaker, I was getting to that! And of course, its best-known use as an aid in feeling warm and fuzzy. Now, Beaker, let's demonstrate what happens when you place this positively-charged chunk of Hensonite into this frothy Pyrex container of acidified wool felt and plastic eyeballs...

:eek: Mee MEE mee!

WHOOMP!

*strange new thing crawling around on floor* Eep? Eeepy eep?

:eek: Eek!

:confused: Beaker! What did I tell you about NOT adding bat wings! Well, that's all for today from Muppet Labs. *Beaker shrieking in background as new creation takes off and dive-bombs him, stealing his hair* Tune in next week when we explore the wonderful world of the periodic table some more, with... Gonzite!
