Hmm, I'm not too sure... I just know the one with the arms.

 

[CensoredAlso]

Wait, live arms or rod arms?

 

[Skye]

Wouldn't you like to know!

Man, this sure is a weeeird conversation!

 

[CensoredAlso]

Hmm, I guess we had weird childhoods too!

 

[Skye]

Hehe, of course... why else would we be so drawn to Muppet-y things!

Yeah, a weird child hood whatching the Muppets, hehe!

It's funny how you can work on the biggest and most whached show in the history of television. It was the number one show in the world when it went off the air. And what is believed to be the second biggest children show in the history of the world, whit like a third of the entire word population whaching and nobody really knows who you you are.

I think I heard that like 2.3 billion children around the world. tune in everyday or something. I mean Fraggle rock was in like over 80 countries or something. But a sum of 70 million kids in this country grew up with Forgetful Jones and the like.

I think that Batman had like 180 viewers, but the muppet show hwas viewed by over 240 milloin viewers an episode when it was on the air. But, it other words, people like the muppets and the Muppets are Big!!!!!!!!

Very true. One of the articles on MC is about the Muppeteers filming the tribute to Jim Henson:

"The feeling Sunday is that of an early Thanksgiving family reunion: raucous camaraderie as they lunch on lasagna, hearty laughter as they discuss the rigorous joys of Muppetry. They speak of being 'quietly proud' of their craft, working in anonynity as their characters became world superstars. They take comfort in knowing they do their jobs well, remembering how long it took to learn the technical skills so the emotional flamboyance could come through."

You know, I rarely enjoy watching the Oscars. I get turned off by seeing all these super star celebs being celebrated, when so many barely deserve it. The real talents are often the ones you never hear about, the ones you never get to see.

They're also doing something called "The Spirit Awards" tonight, about Independent films. But all the people shown on the commerical are exactly the same people who will be at the Oscars. There are plenty of decent actors who appear in independent films all the time. But all we get to see are the super famous people.

That's a great quote from that filming, heralde... it sure does describe them perfectly.

The real talents are often the ones you never hear about, the ones you never get to see.

Which is a really sad but true fact of life, it seems. So many people nowadays seem to get famous because they're just so "pretty" or something, and not because they have any real talent. It's really unfair, and a weird direction that entertainment seems to have taken. Just blows my mind sometimes. And makes me appreciate what I like even more!

Yes you're right. That's what inspired me to choose my latest signature (it's from the song Lena Horn sings to Gonzo on The Muppet Show).

The world is an imperfect, flawed place, nothing is ever the way it's supposed to be. Doing good works will not always get you rewarded in this life. That's what the next one is for, I guess.

And I've been wanting to tell you that I adore your signature, heralde... that is truly a gorgeous line. This world is an imperfect and flawed place... and we just have to try and find our true happiness somewhere in it.
