Red: It's too bad the baseball team lost today.
Yeah, it is. Did you have fun anyway?
Red: Yes! It was great! I'm thinking when school starts again I should start a cheerleading team until the swim season!
That's a great idea Red! You'd be really good at it!
Red: Anyway, I'm tired.
Me too.

UD: Not very nice of you to lie now is it Ryan?
No, I geuss not...
Lew: Oh I don't mind! It's just great to have you here Ryan!
Thanks Lew.
Eduardo: Yeah yeah, at least you're here to cook instead of UD!

Rowlf: 'Evening.
Chef: Hey Leesa.
Rowlf: Hey, is something wrong?
<sigh> I don't have much of a poker face, do I?
Rowlf: No. What's the matter?
Oh, you know, typical... random... life stinks... Kabbalistic energies of the universe in a state of chaos... er... something... yeah... I think I mostly just need sleep.
Rowlf: Well, if you wanna talk, I'm here to listen.
Chef: Yeeh, I'm here-a, tuu.
Thanks guys. I appreciate it. <hugs Rowlf and chef> Goodnight.

*note on room 23 door*
We're over at the "Senior Boomers" party. Having fun and hope to see ya'll there. Bye.
(Me and Rosita in the room laughing and talking)
Bry: Boy, that was some Senior boomers party, huh?
Rosita: I always love a fiesta!
Bry: Your conga sure was a hit.
Rosita: Hehe yeah. Who knew Herry could move like that?!
Bry: and then he fell over! (laughing)
Big Bird: (Entering room from hall) Hi, guys.
Bry: Hey, Big Bird. Hey, did you ever talk to Eduardo the Penguin about playing today.
Big Bird: No, I tried to find him but I couldn't.
Bry: I'm sorry.
Big Bird: That's okay. I mean, I'm friends with just about everybody, but its not often you see another bird around here to play with.
Rosita: Well, what about Hoots? He's so nice and I love his saxaphone playing!
Big Bird: Hoots is an owl, Rosita. And because he is an owl he is mostly only awake during the night time when I go to sleep.
Bry: Sam the Eagle lives here.
Big Bird: Yeah, I know. I tried talking to him once, but all he talks about is the Alamo and "in-peach-mints," and other big words I don't understand. I dunno about you guys, but he's kind of a weirdo if you ask me.
Rosita: Big Bird's right. One time, I saw him in the lounge and he insisted he read to me Barbara Bush's new biography. I love Barbara, but I'd rather read exciting things like Cinderella!
Big Bird: You see?
Bry: I can relate, Big Bird. I am still waiting for my Muppet Penguins to come in the mail.
Big Bird: I don't want plastic friends.
Oscar: (from down the hall overhearing) The Bird got ya this time! He he he he!
Bry: You're right, Big Bird. I was just trying to lighten the mood. Give it time, Big Bird. I am sure they are just busy over there. Why don't you get some sleep and you can try again in the morning.
Big Bird: Can't tomorrow. Me and Snuffy are playing again. Hey did you ever talk to Ed about Snuffy moving in?
Bry: I sure did. We are gonna try and talk to Biff and Sully about building an addition to the room for him.
Big Bird: Oh boy! If there is one thing that puts me in a good mood, it's that!
Rosita: Yay!
Big Bird: Can't wait to tell him. Well, goodnight.
Rosita: Buenos noches.
Bry: Good night, you two, and goodnight all!

Hey guys, I just talked to Ed, and he said we can have Clifford as our new roomie!
Clifford: Hey ya'll what's shakin'?
UD: Wonderful! It's great to have another friend here in the dorm.
Lew: Hey Clifford! Can you cook?
Ed: No can be bad as UD...

Rowlf: Looks like you're doin' better today, Lisa.
Yeah, feelin' a little better. Still a little overwhelmed, but that's life, right?
Rowlf: You could say so.
I just did.
Rowlf: It's a figure of speech.
Since when does speech have a figure?
Rowlf: I'm not sure. I've always wondered that.
Chef: Yuoo tvu ere-a but crezy. Bork bork bork! <goes back to making shish kabobs out of talking singing vegetables>
Rowlf: Look who's calling the kettle black.
Heh. No kidding. Well, I guess I should get back to reading Huck Finn.
Rowlf: Good luck.
Thanks. ...at least it's actually a good, easy to follow and understand book. Haven't had one of those assigned to me in a while...
(Okay FINALLY!!! The robes... sorry that it took me so long before I pulled myself together!.... :o ):
For the Newsman:
The robe is made of the brown checked material that adorns his regular apearence jacket. A bright reflective yellow word, "NEWS" is flashed across the back of his robe, and his right sleve the words, "Whatever I say..." and on teh left, "...I'm going to get hurt."
And for Lewis Kazagger:
The robe for Lewis Kazagger has the stiped and squared colorfull appearence of his regular jacket. Sporting the words, "I <3 Sport" on the back, and decorated across teh sleves with baseballs, footballs, tennis rackets, and such, al with the occasional muppet sport such as a vegetable from "Vege-Table Tennis"
And finally, a dane that has only been taught english for about 7 years couldn't possibly have done these descriptions without Beau's help. So thank you Beau. :)
Editing: Comin up! MY robe...
The Count
08-06-2005, 05:16 AM
Like I told Christy... Don't worry it took you so long... At least you turned 'em in, and that's the important thing.
Is that "<3" supposed to mean "Love"?
And what are the colors of Lewis's regular striped square suit on TMS? Don't know it myself what with my blind batty eyes.
Oh... Looking forward to your own robe ideas too Vibs.
Beauregard
08-06-2005, 05:29 AM
Bo (the tailer, hehe): The <3 is a Heart. I *heart* Sport.
Beau: And his regular is...erm....lemme go find out. Or, Vibs, you do that...
His regular jacket is green and red squared.

...and?

Dee: I always thought <3 meant kiss,lol.Morning to all in the dorms.:D
*Penguin leaves the thread, crying*
Vibs: Morning! Wait... Morning? That's kinda late... um... I guess it's the time difference... Though that doesn't really make sense since we are in the same building. OH WELL! Goodmorning. By the way... I was wondering... Can I bring my puppy inhere? I promise she won't... um... okay maybe she will do that... but she won't... okay maybe she'll do that too... But I promise that I'll be the one to clean up the mess... Or I'll make the newsman do that...
Newsman: This is a Muppet Dorms Newsflash! I am NOT cleaning up any... thing! *Mop falls down on Newsman from the above*
Lewis Kazagger: Welcome to the wild world of Muppet Dorms Sport!! The Newsman just got a mop on top of him and he is knocked out...
The Count
08-06-2005, 10:57 AM
Better get that mop back to Beau, he'll be missing it something turrible by now.
So long as you or your roommates are the ones responsible for your puppy, then it'd be OK. There are lots of us here with our own pets at the dorms. Guess it goes with being all-inclusive to admit all types of Muppets.
Bo the tailer eh? So you're the guy going around tailing everybody. I've been getting some complaints about you. Have half a mind to call Mr. Moppet the campus policeman on you. Then again, he's kind of a Keystone Cop if you know what I mean.
Just a few jokes there. Looking forward to Vibs's own robe, only got the ones for her roommates.
Will be working on that and the list down here in Room #1. Knock or leave a message if you need us.

I was thinking about barbequing tonight.
Red: Ooh, sounds fun!
Great! I'll go get some supplies then! Everyone is welcome to join us, probably have hamburgers and hot dogs.

Ok, I think I'll probably grill by the pool.

ARGH! Darn book!
Rowlf: I though you were enjoying it.
I was enjoying it. Past-tense. I'm not anymore.
Rowlf: Well what changed?
Well, everything was all nice and exciting, and then here we are almost at the climax, and now it's as slow as molasses in January! They could have gotten this guy out three chapters ago AT LEAST. But nooooooooo, they have to make it all complicated and hard on themselves just so they can feel like it's exciting. Because helping a slave run away wasn't exciting enough for them. Oy!
Chef: Vhet chepter ere-a yuoo oon?
I'm on chapter 39. And there's 42. And then there's "Chapter the Last." And then there's this whole other part that he wrote and then didn't put in the book, and it's there anyway. And I have to read the whole introduction, which I skipped, but I have to read it to help with these questions, which of course want me to compare the book to the author's life. And I get to do all that, and clean the house, in about two and a half days. And then I get to kiss my summer goodbye. And I can't focus on anything because I'm itching to write more of "Summer in the Theater." <sigh>. <picks book back up and tries to read some more.>

Thanks D... Made the proper additions to the list entries.
*Sigh. Know how you feel Lisa.
Started rechecking the ML, got the first four letters done, about a quarter of the way with 965 entries. Got the rest of the alphabet to go.
And of course, I also have to work on my counting castle guys and ghouls... Got two of them done, almost finished with a third if it wasn't for rechecking the list.
Got classes and errands connected with that starting this Thursday, 8/11.
Well... Not sure if I'll make it to Beth's BBQ at the pool... Cause I got some robes to make also.
Maybe I'll have time to make some chocolate chip brownies and send you some later tonight.

There are some brownies baking in the oven. Hope you'll be here to take some with you after they're ready. Beth and Red are having a cookout by the pools later tonight, you might wanna head there.
Oh... And I'll be in here if you need me working on the robes. *Thinking of additional images. Sometimes I scare myself with the connections I come up with.
They're gonna like it I hope.
Oh sorry Christy, do you need help with anything?
Big Bird: (walking down the hall) LA LA LA LA LA LA.. Hmm I wonder what everyone is doing today. I guess asking questions is a good way to find out answers. (shouting out to the dorm halls) HEY! WHAT IS EVERYONE DOING TODAY!?
Big Bird: Hmm I guess everyone is asleep.
Oscar: Or maybe they just don't wanna be bothered.
Bry: (walking in) Oh Oscar, be quiet. It's a weekend, Big Bird, people are probably out. Come on, lets get Rosita and have some lunch. Then we can talk about room expansion plans for Snuffy.
Big Bird: Okay! By the way, I told Snuffy he could move in and he was very excited.
Bry: I am too. I just hope we can get a big enough room for him. He's a big fellow.

Well, as for the house being clean, she's the only one who lives there and she doesn't have much to do, so I guess she cleans. And shops, of course. But that's just the way she is. I did think it was rather amusing when she offered to divide her last eclaire between all of us, considering she usually has more than enough of them. And my headache... yeah... sorry about that.
Rowlf: Why are you apologizing? You didn't make your head hurt on purpose.
True. Oh, Hi Big Bird, Bryan, Grover, and Ryan.
Rowlf: Hi guys
Chef: Hellu!
Well, I'd love to sit and chat, but I've gotta head for bed. I'm getting up pretty early tomorrow to go on that ride with my parents, have to leave by 6:30 at the latest.
Rowlf: What's it called again?
Ride for Kids. It's a fund raiser, for the Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation.

Seems like Lisa won't be here till much later. Oh well, glad she liked the brownies. Glad you liked 'em too D. They're made to be brownies, but made out of chocolate chip cookie dough. Basically, you make the cookie dough, and fit it into a square pan instead of cutting cookies out of it. My mom makes 'em great, with a couple of surprises like adding a pinch of coffee to the chocolate mix.
Well... Finished the list check up to the K's, and I'm halfway done with 1836 entries so far. Another 1800 to go.
Think I'll have some grub and wash up for a bit of a rest before getting back on the saddle.
Oh, and for those of you looking for numerical connections in your posts...

Red, we can't control what the company decides to do.

Yeah, that's what I think too.

I suppose we could write to the company, start a petition. I mean, it did work to get you and your friends on DVD.

08-08-2005, 06:07 PM
Heh. Not so much a camping trip as just "camp." I wish it was real camping, with a tent and no bathroom and no shower and "oh, jeans count as shabbat clothes, sure!" But instead, it's cabins, and cold showers, and hot drinking fountains, and "skirts must be finger-tip length at least, and ladies, you can't wear pants durring shabbat services! Only during your free time" and most of my friends who usually go aren't going this year. Still, enjoyable, if only because we get to bang on the tables and sing at the top of our lungs. And don't you worry, Nyssa, I'll be right there with you on the first day of school. I get home about an hour and half before it starts, and thank goodness it's a late start day, or I'd miss my one chance to talk to the teacher about this stupid summer reading assignment.
Chef: Speekeeng ooff zee soommer reedeeng esseegnment, hoo's thet gueeng? Is it dune-a yet?
No, not done yet. It's being annoying, and for some reason I'm not figuring some of these questions out at all. I'll probably work on it a little more today, but right now, I need to pack.
(later...)
Rowlf: Let's see, you've got short sleeve shirts, long sleeve shirts, a sweatshirt... are you sure you need that much of a variety of clothes?
Yes. Trust me, I've been going for a few years. Sometimes it's roasting, sometimes you spend the entire week in a sweatshirt. One year, before I started going, it even snowed.
Chef: Snoo? In Oogoost?
Yes, snow in August. It's called Northern Wisconsin climate. I won't know exactly what the weather will be like until I get there. Although I'm willing to bet that first thing in the morning I won't want to get out of bed. It'll be freezing cold then. But, oh well. Let's see, what else do I need... winter coat, bedsheet, sleeping bag...
Rowlf: Wanna just look at the list?
Nah, lemme see how much I can remember on my own first... pants are still in the dryer... toiletries I still need... oh, siddur and tallit. Which siddur should I bring, guys?
Rowlf: What's a see-door?
It's a prayer book. I have three copies of the one we use. Should I bring hardcover, OA, or CHUSY?
Rowlf: What?
Never mind, let's get dinner.

Hi Prairie...I'm back.
Prairie:Hey Kath*hugging me* You all right?
As all right as to be expected I guess. *setting my setting my suitcase down dejectedly & sighing* I miss my dad so much Prairie.Especially because today would have been his 61st birthday :(
Prairie:Oh Kathy!I'm so sorry!
Thanks.*dabbing at my eyes with a tissue* It's just not fair! My dad used to be so full of life. Now he's gone. When I was at home after my dad died I was over my friend's house, I told her that I wanted to scream & cry at the unfairness of it all. She told me to go on ahead. So I did & started hysterically crying.She just rubbed my arm & let me cry. I'm not going to do that here though. It'll scare the dormies out of their wits.
Prairie:Well...beating up a pillow or squeezing a stress ball helps.And if you want to cry, I'm right here for you.So are the other dormies. OK?
Yeah *snif*

Hey Kath... Good to see you back here. If you wanna talk or something...

Oh, and there are chocolate chip brownies in the fridge if you want any.
BTW: Got my RC Kermit yesterday. Haven't opened 'em up yet, will later I hope.

Hi Kathy! Welcome back!
Red: We're so glad to see you!
If you need anything, just let us know!
Red: We'll probably be making ice cream sundaes later if you and Prairie want to join us.
And anyone else is welcome to as well. We'll be down in the kitchen tonight.
Red: But for now, we're going to be watching...
THE MUPPET SHOW!!!! Woo-hoo!!!!
Red: She's excited, can you tell?

Glad everyone's got their DVD's.
Heh... If that's excited, then do we want to be near her when you get the FR Season 1 set Beth?
Didn't go out to the stores today, got other things on my mind what with sorting my online dealings and getting ready for the new term.
But I finished setting up my S10 Muppets figures.
From left to right: MTI Gonzo with his sword raised high, and MTI Rizzo below him. Space left open for FSL Kermit and Blue Frog Scout. FSL Kermit with Green Frog Scout (Norman Frog) in front holding the fishing rod in his left hand, the baby eggplant's next to them. The Ghost in the center, Uncle Deadly holding Yorick next in line. And then... RC Kermit with Robin in front and all three veggies standing next to the little log-stompin' frog. The Penguins are side by side as the last item in the group.
Rully hoping for Sal Manilla to get released to complete the series and line.
Well, have a good night.

Take care Kath. You know... Not sure if I'll get the DVD boxsets. Got a deal with someone from Canada, we've become friends, and I've gotten about three-fifths of the entire run of TMS on VCD's by now.
Hmmm, think I'll just do a bit of house-cleaning with some character questions.

I'm OK. This weeks been a mess though. I'm surprised my tear ducts haven't dried up though.
Prairie:It's good to cry though.It's not healthy to keep it in.
Yeah...I know. Everyone's been really supportive though.Including you,Prairie. I couldn't ask for anything more.
Prairie:What are friends for? :)
True. What were you playing on the piano?
Prairie:Oh...nothing special.Just tickling the ivories.
My dad played the piano & organ. He was very musical. So we're trying to figure out what to do with the organ he had. I can play a little but just with my right hand.
Prairie:You're not sad that I was playing the piano,are you? I mean...it didn't bring back sad memories did it?
No...I'm fine. Keep playing.
Prairie:OK. *and starts playing the Theme from "The Muppet Show" :)
Bry: (Walking into the room) Hey, what you guys doing?
Rosita: Watching The Muppet Show dvds.
Big Bird: Yeah, we saw Bert and Ernie on the show.
Bry: Oh yeah, that was a fun episode to see them in. Big Bird, do you remember when you got to be on The Muppet Show?
Big Bird: Yeah, we can't find it.
Bry: Thats cuz this is season 1 and you weren't on the show til a couple years later or so.
Rosita: How are you doing?
Bry: Eh, could be better. I've been kinda depressed lately.
Big Bird: What is depressed?
Bry: It means sad.
Rosita: Aww...what's wrong? Do you wanna talk about it?
Bry: Yeah, but not right now, I have a lot of stuff i have to do. Enjoy the show. By the way, I have some plans drawn up for the room expansion for when Snuffy moves in. Well, I'll see you guys later, I'm going for a walk.

I'll be OK. It sure as heck did hurt though *sigh*
Prairie:I know it did.But at least you get a break from her for 2 weeks
True. I don't know Prairie...maybe I should quit the handicapped club
Prairie:WHAT? Are you crazy? Kathy...your mom would have a fit! And your dad wouldn't want you to quit.Remember that saying he had when people got you upset?"Don't let the idiots get...."
"....you down." Yeah I know.But I was in tears in the bowling alley. I wanted to go home. That,and telling the woman to leave me alone. I can't stand her anyway.Her talking about going on the cruise with her family just added to it. It made me miss my dad even more.
Prairie:I understand. But don't quit the handicapped club because one person got you upset,all right? You need to remember that she's handicapped too. Plus she's a blabbermouth like her mom.You said the two of them just don't shut up. Just let what she & her mom say go in one ear & out the other.
All right...I'll try.

You'll be very good at that I think!

Chef: Yuoo deedn't cume-a beck beffure-a schuul, ve-a vere-a vurreeed. Bork bork bork! Vhet heppened?
Lisa: Well, what happened is that the buses that were supposed to bring us back from camp were five hours late. We got to freeze our butts off in our cabins without our sleeping bags and try to sleep while we waited. Then at six thirty we FINALLY got onto the bus. A couple hours later, it was eighty something degrees outside, and we found out that the air conditioning on the bus we were on didn't work. So it's been a fairly miserable twenty-four hours.
Rowlf: Ooh. That's rough. So you missed the first day of school?
Lisa: Yeah. Oh that reminds me, I need to pretend to know what I'm doing for the rest of the summer reading assignment and finish it. Too bad I didn't get to talk to the teacher about it, but... I'll e-mail him. So... interesting way to start the year.

Lisa: I. Hate. Annotating.
Rowlf: What's annotating?
Lisa: It's when you read something, and you underline and circle and highlight all sorts of stuff, and you write stuff all over the margins like "irony" and "metaphor" and "simile" and "repetition" and "foreshadowing" and "so-and-so thinks such-and-such" and definitions for words you don't know and this that and the other thing and it's about as annoying than my sister's alarm going off at 4:30 in the morning! And English teachers absolutely LOVE to assign for us to annotate random articles and passages and every single book we read. And did I mention that I hate it?
Rowlf: Yeah, I think so.
Lisa: I hate it. It's probably THE main reason that English is no longer my favorite subject anymore. The other two reasons are bad teachers and symbolism. But I'll rant about that another time.

You should really switch to reg. English Lisa. It's much better. But Alg. 2, GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. My teacher assigns ENTIRELY to many problems. I mean not like it's hard, math is easy, but it takes FOR-EVER. <grumble grumble> Stupid math <grumble grumble>. And I swear I have to carry around THE heaviest books. School, how I loathe thee.
Anyway on to happier things. Does everyone like my new avatar?
It's super swank. I love Rowlf :sympathy: .

*Outiside, in the patio or front dorms area...
Count, in rain gear or at least a sweater and umbrella... Ah ha! Now we're getting into the peak point of the season! Mid-August to early September, the true black heart of the Atlantic Hurricane season. And that means lots of stormy days for me to count up the thunderclaps!
*Back inside... Oh hi Kathy... Maybe you'll have better luck with the DVD's tomorrow. Got some stuff to take care of before and after classes tomorrow and on Friday... Say, did you see the pictures I was hinting at?
Hey Ed! Yep...I saw the pics you were hinting about. They were meowvelous! :)
As for the DVDs I'll look tomorrow or Friday. I'll call Best Buy in the AM (that's morning...not "Anything Muppet ;) ) and see if they're in

Oh...morning Prairie...sorry I woke you.
Prairie:S' Okay *getting up & stretching* What was the "Oh brother!" about?
Well...I called Best Buy around 9:30 thinking they were open. They weren't until 10.So then I called around 10:03. Got the same message about them not being open til 10. I waited another 20 minutes before calling again.Finally got an answer & asked about the Muppet Show Season 1 DVD. I was asked to hold on. Prairie...3 people asked me to hold on. :rolleyes:
Prairie:Tell me you're kidding.
Nope. So when I finally talked to someone they said they didn't have it in stock & to check back tomorrow!
Prairie:WHAT? Sheesh!
Yeah...now I know how Kermit felt when he was looking for that "Kermit The Frog" T shirt & the salesman was showing him the wrong ones until he was told that the shirt wouldn't be ready til Wednesday! I talked to my sister a few minutes ago & she went to Wal-Mart to see if the MS DVD is there.

Red: So how was your last summer field trip with the kids?
Pretty fun, but it rained while we were at the amusement park.
Red: That's too bad!
Yeah, but there were less people there so you got to go to the front of every line practically!

Morning everyone! Hey Ed, the episode I took that line from is Episode 13 - Bruce Forsythe. The duck is kind of a running gag in that episode.
Red: It's pretty funny!
Yes it is. So, it's Kyle's birthday today.
Red: We should do something nice for him!
Well, I think the monsters are throwing him a party, but we could still do something!
Red: I know! Let's hang some balloons on his door that says "Happy Birthday", then when he gets up and goes to leave, he'll see them!
Great idea! *we gather a boquet of balloons and leave them on Kyle's door with a note saying Happy Birthday from the girls in room 3!*

Thanks Beth. Got that one leading off VCD TMS5. And I got Grover's message last night... You might notice the streamers hung around the place, especially in the Floor 2's Common Room. Course, there's a designated space around Oscar's can for all the shredded wrapping paper after he opens the gifts. Thought Oscar might... Like that?
Oh well... Got him a nice surprise here wrapped with our black bat paper. Called the Chef, and he's busy in Lisa's room baking the cake.
See you guys later tonight.
Oh, and if you see Bo or Vibs, please tell 'em about their missing robe design ideas. Would like it if they handed those in, wouldn't want Bobo or Vibs herself to miss out on the anniversary festivities.
OK, I'll be downstairs if anyone needs me now.

Looks like this party was a success. Well... Wait till they see the stuff planned for the anniversary... And I think that some of the dormers have a bit of a surprise planned for that too.
Have a good night Kyle, and Happy Birthday.
Snuffy: (taking gift from Kyle) Gee, thanks, Kyle. You're right, it is my birthday, but you didn't have to get me anything.
Big Bird: Hey, I have a present for you too, old pal. It's down in my room, come on! Happy Birthday, Kyle!
Rosita: Si, feliz cumplianios!
Bry: Great party. Hope you had fun, Kyle. Enjoy your gifts. By the way, Snuff, part of our birthday present to you is your new room attached to ours at the end of the hall. Hopefully it will be done soon. Biff and Sully haven't been the most diligent workers this week.
Snuffy: Sounds great, you guys. I'm so excited to move in. Thanks, Ed, for allowing me.

*Looking out through windows at Floor 2's Common Room.
Hi guys, just making the rounds to see if everyone's inside and OK. Today's skies are cast over with rain clouds... And we got a nice rainy cool/cold breeze blowing. The rain's started, but it's a little light right now.
If you're going out onto the streets, be careful Kyle and Grover.
I'll be downstairs if anyone needs me... Just leave a note.
Hey, Ed. Do Biff, Sully and the Doozers usually work on Sundays? Just checkin. Wanna make sure the building is on schedule. Also, I dunno if Snuffy will be needing a robe. He is, after all a big guy and that will take a lot!! Hope you are well.
(POSTING NOTE TO EVERYONE ON MAIN BULLETIN BOARD)
It looked like everyone had a lot of fun last night at the party for Kyle and Snuffy had a good day as well. I thought it might be a good idea to have a calendar of everyone's birthdays in the dorms so we can celebrate. I have many of the Sesame Street gang's b-days but would like to collect everyone else's to start a calendar. I will be compiling this, so if you would like to PM me or post here with the information that would be cool. Hope you all have a terrific weekend!

Hi Bry... You can usually see a user's birthday by going into that person's personal page and scrolling to the bottom. If it's not there, then you might wanna contact that user directly.
Oh, and you might want to wait till the anniversary to find out all the people and Muppets who'll definitely still be here at the beginning of the dorms' 2nd year, after I post the updated house chart on the anniversary.
Nice idea... Just hold up till you have all the players is all I'm advising.
And as for Snuffy... Could send you what I have for Thog's robe since he's a big fellow too. Then again... Just send the design for a robe Snuffy's size. After all, he'd wear one after taking a bath wouldn't he?
Just some suggestions. Have a good day.

I dunno. Snuffy is after all the largest Muppet and he doesn't even walk upright. How would the design look? We can figure something out for him. I don't think i have ever seen him wear anything and can't imagine it so i wouldn't really know. Any thoughts?
The Count
08-20-2005, 01:52 PM
Well...
1 As for the construction, so long as there are no Fraggles around to eat up the Doozersticks, they should practically keep on working till the job gets done.
2 Seen Snuffy wear a towel over his main body in the NYC Marathon episode, and I have a PVC figurine of him wearing a blueish towel too.
3 Then again, we could tailor a robe to fit around just the front half of his body... With a collar big enough for his head, and two sleeves fitting his front legs.
Just some thoughts, will be in the room if you need me.

Lisa: Yeah. Tell me something I don't know.
Rowlf: So what's the matter?
Lisa: Oh, you know, homework, parents, I'm a teenage girl and therefore life stinks, the usual.
Rowlf: Ok. Now be specific.
Lisa: Stubborn, aren't you? Well, Mr. Baker decided that he was sick of us not jumping out of our seats to answer his questions during class today, so he cut off the discussion on these two essays we annotated and instead told us to grade them. That's our homework, to grade these stupid essays. I have enough trouble writing essays, I really don't know what to do about grading them.
Rowlf: Well didn't he give you some kind of starting point?
Lisa: Oh yeah, of course. We're supposed to use the guidelines he gave us for the essays we have to write and turn in next monday. But that's not exactly a ruberic, you know? I'm really pretty lost. And then this worksheet for science is just plain annoying. And I need sleep. Have I mentioned that I need sleep? Because I really, REALLY need sleep.
Rowlf: It's about all you've said all day. So what about parents, what's the problem there?
Lisa: Just... parents. I don't know. I need to get back to homework and finish it already, so I can actually get enough sleep tonight.
Rowlf: You're evading.
Lisa: Yeah, well. Hey where's Chef?
Rowlf: Oh... well see he saw something you were reading about a fly on a stick, and decided it would be a good recipe...

Bergère d'azur infinie
Voyez près des étangs ces grands roseaux mouillés
Voyez ces oiseaux blancs et ces maisons rouillées

Et d'une chanson d'amour, la mer
A bercé mon coeur pour la vie

Dear Dormies:
Well, I am happy to say that Biff, Sully and the Doozers have officially finished building the new addition to our room (on the very end of the halls wing) which will (starting tomorrow Friday August 26, 2005) be Mr. Snuffleupagus' new home at the dorms. We will be having a party welcoming Snuffy to our dorm family later in the day. The room description will also be revealed then. All are invited. There will be food tables outside and we'll be barbequing. Please join us. Hope to see you all there!!

Do you need some help making signs?

I can help you this weekend, but Sunday I'm going to the Fair!

The State Fair that my state has every summer. There's tons of food, games, rides and stuff to see! It's really fun!

Well... I'm glad to say that now 21 out of the 33 groups of occupants here at the dorms have reported their wishes to remain and have all their robes finished.
Of the people who've expressed they want to stay, T-Bird Chick and Scooter; and Ernie101 and Sweetums still need to send in their robe ideas.
And Ernie101 should LMK if he does plan to stay here and participate, if only occasionally.
As for the remaining dorm residents, failure to contact me by 9/10/2005 will be interpreted as a lack of interest in continued participation, and their roommates and rooms will become available once again.
Hope to hear from T-Bird Chick and/or Ernie101 soon and have a good day.

Rosita: Okay.
Big Bird: You got it!
Bry: Snuffy doesn't know about the party, so he will be very surprised when he shows up. SO don't spill the beans.

We also have garden burgers and chicken for those who don't eat red meat or meat at all. theres buns, and a plate of cookies and brownies. Anything else?
Rosita: Yeah, we have Spanish rice and beans too. Yummy!
Big Bird: Oh, did you remember the spaghetti? That's Snuffy's favorite, ya know. And also, my birdseed burgers in the fridge, cuz you know I don't eat meat.
Bry: Don't worry, Big Bird, we got it. By the way, Rosita, you did a great job with the decorations!

Count: Ah hello Eduardo. There's a big package here for you.
Rully? Who from?
Count: BHM.
Oh yeah! Three more exclusives for the collection, including one of the ultra-rarities. Now only Lunchbox Kermit and Henson Holiday Kermit are left from the Industry Exclusive category.
And this'll cheer you up, got the designs in mind for one more creature. Gotta get the group up to ten and then they'll be sent to Joel for drawing. And once they've been drawn we can show them off and get them to the campus sculpter.
Things are looking up my friend.. Hope you're able to get them finished soon.
So do I, got a backload on the agenda, but it's there for when I get the chance. Come on, let's get ready for a bit of TV before working on the list.
Count: Sounds vonderful

Yep.

Uh huh. She's great.
Clifford: Cool.
Gonzo: Yeah, we'll have to double date sometime!
Well, she doesn't exactly like chickens...
Gonzo: What?!? How can you not like chickens?!?
She lives with them, she raises chickens.
Gonzo: Cool! Can I go live with her?

Lisa: <stops smacking head into open text book> Precious brain cells? Is that an insult?
Rowlf: No.
Lisa: Darn.
Rowlf: ...I think I missed something.
Lisa: It's okay, so did I. Hey, where's Chef?
Rowlf: CHEF!.... Well, he's not in the room, that's for sure.

Rowlf: Picky picky. I think he's in the bathroom.
Lisa: Alright. Whatever. <smacks head into open text book several times>
Rowlf: Hey, cut it out, Lisa.
Lisa: Rowlf? I already have four mothers. You don't need to pretend to be one.
Rowlf: How do have four mothers?
Lisa: Easy. There's my mom, both my sisters, and one of my friends. They all act like mothers to me.
Rowlf: ...just do your homework...

Muppet Cheerleading Team: Come be a part of the Muppet Cheerleaders who will cheer this Fall for the Muppet College Football Team! All Muppets and Humans are encouraged to come to tryouts on Thursday, September 1 and Friday, September 2nd. Practices start Tuesday, September 6th. Questions? Call Red Fraggle in room 3So do you think lots of people will come out for it Red?
Red: I sure hope so. I heard Rosita is interested, she'd be great!
Prairie is not sure if she wants to try out because she's afraid of competition and ruining your friendship.
Red: What? That could never happen! She's my best friend besides you and Mokey! I have to get her to come. I'm going to go see her right now.
All right, well I'm going to be watching Gilmore Girls down in our room.
Red: Ok, see you later. *Red heads to room 6*

(hangs up).
Prairie*calling Rosita back but getting the answering machine* Hi Rosita...it's Prairie! Red Fraggle is in charge of the Cheerleading Squad,so you'd need to get in touch with her.I think she's in Room 3,but I'm not sure. I'll have to see about trying out. Kathy says I should,but I don't want any feelings getting hurt.So I'm gonna sleep on it. See you tomorrow.Buenas noches,amiga!

Herry: Ooooo Cookie? We should go try out for the team.
Cookie M: Sounds fun. Are you coming Grover?
Grover: Grover not want to hurt little body. So no I will not go. Sorry guys.
Same here. I might be a big guy and would look like a football player. I'll never try out.
Herry: Suits your mind. Come on Cookie! *runs off*
Cookie M: Wait for me.
Let them go and lose an arm or two. LOL.
Grover: Yea.
Guess what?
Grover: What?
We're off for the Anni. party!
Grover: Great. I can't wait. But what about Herry?
He's off too. He asked off to be able to be here. Can't wait either. Watch some tv?
Grover: Ok. *turns on TV*
Rosita: (just finished listening to message from Prairie) Oh, Prairie is so nice. Hehe. I think I am going to try out for the cheerleading team.
Bry: You should. You'd be great.
Big Bird: (walking in through the side door) Hey, I found this flyer outside by the pool.
Snuffy: What does it say, Bird?
Big Bird: Well, lets see here...(he reads out loud the words from Red's flyer that she sent out). I guess there is going to be some cheerleading team.
Rosita: I know, and I am going to try out for it!
Big Bird: You are?
Snuffy: It sounds like fun. I think that I will try out too!
Big Bird: You? But Snuff, its cheerleaders.
Snuffy: Yeah...?
Big Bird: Well, cheerleaders are girls, Snuffy.
Snuffy: They are?
Bry: No, Big Bird, boys can be cheerleaders too.
Big Bird: They can? But they wear frilly skirts and bows and things.
Bry: No, not the boys. Anyone can be a cheerleader.
Snuffy: Sure, Bird. I mean, didn't it say on the flyer that everyone is welcome?
Big Bird: I guess you are right. I never really knew that. Well, Snuffy, if you want to be a cheerleader, I know that you will be the best darn cheerleader Snuffleupagus I know!
Snuffy: Aww..thanks, Bird. AHohoho.
Bry: Sure, I just hope they don't put you on the top of the pyramid.
Big Bird: What?
Bry: Nevermind. So are you gonna try out now too, Big Bird?
Big Bird: Nah, I heard some talk about a basketball team that people are trying to get me to join.
Rosita: Ooh, can you dunk?
Big Bird: Dunk? Sure, got any sunflower seed donuts?
Snuffy: Oh dear...
Rosita: So, Bryan, will I see you at the cheerleading tryouts?
Bry: Oh, you've gotta be kidding me!
Bry: Hey, what are you guys doing?
Rosita: We are making a present for Herry. It was his birthday yesterday.
Bry: What is it?
Big Bird: It's the letter M.
Bry: Why the letter M?
Big Bird: Well, because of that song he sang with the Cookie Monster about the letter M. M starts some great words. Like "Monkey".
Rosita: And "Marshmellow"
Snuff: Oh, yeah, and "Monster."
Bry: So it does. Well that is a beautiful letter M. I am sure Herry will love it. What are you doing Snuffy?
Snuffy: Well...I am writing a thank you note to Prairie Dawn for the coleslaw she made for me when I moved in. It was delicious!
Bry: Well, have fun. I am gonna go for a walk.

Hmmm... Wonder how the cheerleading tryouts are going. I'm sure Red will tell us, besides decisions won't be posted till tomorrow anyway.
Oh, and for those of you who're interested... See this display on the lobby's desk? Well... You might notice a faded 10 and the remaining nine numbers lit up. That's cause there's only 9 days left till the anniversary and another number will fade each day as we get closer to the big party.
Hope this helps, have a great party Herry!
Rosita: Okay, now that that is done, time to run to cheerleader tryouts. Come on, Snuffy, we don't want to be late!
Snuffy: Coming, Rosita!
Big Bird: Okay, bye, Snuffy. Goodluck you guys!

Cool..how do you think you did?
Prairie:I did OK...almost fell flat on my rear end when doing a back flip, though.But I maintained my balance.
Good for you.I'm proud of you! :)
Prairie:Thanks.Red insisted that I try out. So I'm glad that I did.You should have seen Rosita though!Wow,is she flexible!Same with Red.
I don't exactly have the bod for cheerleading.But if it was just yelling, I'd do OK.
Prairie:Yep...you would.Hey...got something for ya. I know how upset you've been lately,which is understandably so. I got you something to cheer you up at least a little. Here you are Yellow roses for friendship with a little clip on Garfield in the middle.
Oh Prairie!*hugging her*Thanks!You're a good friend.
Prairie:You're welcome. You're a good friend too.You've just been so sad lately.I just wished I could make it a little better.
Well,these flowers & the little Garfield do help somewhat. Plus the dorms' anniversary party coming up next week.

*A face peeps timidly out from the hallway in to the lobby.*
Uh, Count, is it too late for me to reserve my room? I'm sorry for not answering your PMs; I promise I didn't do it on purpose.
I know you were just talking about being finished making robes, but could you please make two for Lou and I? I am truly vary sorry for this; things just have been kind of complicated this summer, and I kind of lost touch with a lot of people and things.
I was also looking for some fashion advice, if anyone can give it. I know I want a robe with with a large rainbow on the front, but I don't know what color to make the background. If anyone has a good idea for that, I would be greatful, as I have spent a long time thinking about it.
Lou told me that she would like a green robe, with large raddishes, eggplants, and turnups on it. She says they remind her of home and the Gorgs' garden.
Thanks, and again, you have my sencere appologies.

Dear Fragglemuppet (Kate):
I'm so glad to see you here round the dorms again. Since you just posted that you wanted to stay here, with Lou Fraggle as your roommate, then you made it in on time. As for the robes, when I said I was finished making them, I meant that I finished making the ones for all the dorm residents who've expressed interest in remaining. Can always make yours and will get 'em in with the rest. Would recommend some sort of gray background for the rainbow to rully shine on the front of yours, maybe some raindrops or flowers as added details. LMK at your earliest convenience what you think or if I should go ahead and come up with something based on that central idea. Sorry that you've had problems during the summer, but I rully hope you're able to resolve them. And hope to see you at the party next Saturday.
From, The Count (MC, Eduardo).
OK, now to have one of my bats to send this to her...

Dr. Teeth: Labor Day weekend has arrived.Ahhh,the number seven.I shall sing a good old number seven classic,let me elucidate:
One two three four five six seven!
Said the Alligator King to his seven sons,
"I'm feelin' mighty down.
Whichever of you can cheer me up
Will get to wear my crown."
His first son brought seven oyster pearls
From the bottom of the China Sea.
The second gave him seven statues of girls
With clocks where their stomachs should be.
The third son gave him seven rubies
From the sheikdom Down There Beneath.
The King thought the rubies were cherries,
And he broke off seven of his teeth.
The fourth son tried to cheer him up
With seven lemon drops.
The King said, "I'm sorry son,
Since that ruby episode, I just haven't got the chops."
The fifth son brought the King perfume
In seven fancy silver jars;
The King took a whiff, and he broke out in spots
'Cause it smelled like cheap cigars.
The sixth son gave him seven diamond rings
To wear upon his toes.
The King snagged his foot on the royal red rug
And crumpled up his nose.
The seventh son of the Alligator King
Was a thoughtful little whelp.
He said, "Daddy, appears to me
That you could use a little help."
Said the Alligator King to his seventh son,
"My son, you win the crown.
You didn't bring me diamonds or rubies, but
You helped me up when I was down.
Take the crown; it's yours, my son.
I hope you don't mind the dents.
I got it on sale at a discount store-
Cost me all of seven cents!"
Seven!
Dee: To all of those celebrating this holiday weekend,to you and yours,have a safe Labor Day holiday.I've been reading Lemony Snicket,up to book 5.Do you need anything done from the band Count,or for me to bake anything? Let me know and have a good weekend.

Watched my morning shows, stored a few MOC figures in the ol' closet, and finished another round of photos with my brother. Think I'll have some breakfast/lunch next before moving on to the S-file for the list.
Oh and thanks D for the song... Rully groovy to hear it sung by the maestro of melodic merriment. For the anniversary party, will let folks know if I need help with the stuff.
Have a great holiday weekend everyone.

My My, I'm certainly hard to pin down, aren't I? But you're almost just as dificult. *smile*
I came back from my weekend a long time ago, but I was purposely waiting to answer you until you were here, because although it is no one's fault, I must say that I dislike playing virtual tag. Please don't take offense to that; as I sead before, it is no one's fault. Anyway, the design you picked out is perfect; I suspected grey was just the color I needed.
As for me, as before, I do not know how often I will be around, because I have a rather unpredictable family, as well as having just restarted classes. UnliI will, however, make every effert to be here as much as I can; this place is so great!
One more thing, Count, would you mind posting an updated list of the newly available roommates. Then again, you might want to wait 'till after the celebration, as I may be taking on another roomate then.
Thanks,

I'm sorry for getting in touch so late, but I didn't see the notice until just a while ago. You've seen me in the Rock, and you know I can do whatever acrobatics you ask me to. YI'm looking foreward to hearing back from you; remember, I'm in room 38.
Bye
Boy, that was a long message!
Lou: Well, I just wanted to get my point across.
I know, but they say "more is less"
Lou: Well, back in the Rock, we don't have that expression.
I noticed.
Lou: *yelling indignantly* Hey!!
Sorry, I just had to say that.
Lou: Anyway, I am usually not this determined, I generally leave this up to Red, but I want to give this cheer leading a try. I heard it was about athletics, and I have always been good at that.
I know you'll be wonderful at it.

Hey guys... A few things.
1 Kate, glad to hear from you. If you can't contact me directly by posting here given our different time schedules, then feel free to send me a message via PM or E-mail. You can do so by clicking the appropirate links in a member's profile page.
2 The list of who's still boarding with whom and what characters are available once again won't get posted till next Saturday. Want to give the others who haven't contacted me a chance to do so before measures are taken.
3 So long as you keep up with the action and post when you get the chance to do so, you'll be fine here Kate.
4 Don't forget, we're hoping for the start of SS Season 36 early tomorrow.
Oh yeah, lots of luck with Muppet Survivor Bry. Have too many memories of the version we did over at the Palisades forum.
Good night to all. Feel free to leave a message if you need us.

I take it the version at Palisades didn't go over too well, Count?
Thanks for the help.

Oh it went fine enough... Just that we got a bit carried away with the escapades when posting through the days which added to the craziness... And I stupidly blurted out Animal as one of my fave Muppet characters of all time when he was the only one left of "my guys" left in contention.
Hope this helps and check you in the morning... Oh wait, it's already morning.
Well, enjoy the new episodes of SS, if they show them that is.
Bry: (looking at the Sesame Street schedule for the week) Cool! It looks like they will start showing new episodes from season 36 and the hurricane episode series. I should set up the Tivo. Big Bird will want to see that again I'm sure. He has been a little worried about the folks down on the Gulf Coast, as am I. Maybe these episodes will restore his faith. It is only 2:15 am, but why does it feel later? I hope the Muppet Survivor game goes well. I'm a little nervous about it.
Rosita: I'm sure it will be fine.
Bry: Rosita? What are you doing up?
Rosita: I couldn't sleep. The question is, who were you talking to?
Bry: Oh, no one. I guess I was just talking to myself.
Rosita: Are you feeling alright?
Bry: I'm fine. Hey, you guys do it all the time on Sesame Street. Gimme a break.
Rosita: Hmm...I suppose. Anyway, I am sure the game will go well. I believe in you.
Bry: Thanks, Rosita. Hey, looks like Snuffy and Big Bird got tired of "doing nothing."
Rosita: I think they are just resting up for doing more nothing on Labor Day.
Bry: Hmmm...Well, it looks like its almost time for me to go to sleep too.
Rosita: Yeah, good idea. Buenas Noches.
Bry: You too, Rosita.

Lou: *calling Beth's room, and leaving a message* Hello, Red, this is Lou Fraggle. I saw a flyer saying that you were organizing a cheer leading squad, and I was interested in joining. I'm sorry for getting in touch so late, but I didn't see the notice until just a while ago. You've seen me in the Rock, and you know I can do whatever acrobatics you ask me to. YI'm looking foreward to hearing back from you; remember, I'm in room 38.

Red (calling Lou): Hi Lou! I was so glad to hear from you! You would be fantastic to have on our cheerleading team, so please come and join us! We're starting practices tomorrow afternoon so we'll be reading for the game on Friday! You'll have lots of fun with us, Snuffy, Rosita and Prairie Dawn are the other team members. If you have any other questions, give me a call or come see me in room 3, otherwise I'll see you tomorrow!
Got another team member Red?

That's great!

Hey guys, feeling a bit better now. Just stepped out of the bat-room after a good shower, dressed for staying at home today, and saw that there are only five lighted numbers at the desk. Gonna see if I can get some stuff done here in our room, knock or leave a message if you need us. Oh, and Lisa, please tell the Chef that his account's already been paid for his catering services for the party on Saturday.
Don't worry, I assure all the food will be edible and well-cooked.

Hoots: Be where? At the anniversary party? Well, I don't think I am really invited. I don't live in the dorms.
Bry: Yeah, but you hang out around here sometimes. I'm sure no one will mind. Everyone likes you.
Hoots: Well, maybe I'll show up a little later in the evening hours. I'll bring my sax and blow some cool tunes.
Bry: Good. I'm glad. *yawn* I'm sleepy. You wanna play me something soothing to get me to sleep.

Good morning dormies. Good morning Lou.
Lou: Good morning, Kate. Good morning fellow dormies. *to me* Did you just wake up?
No, I was up for a while, but I didn't want to wake you.
Lou: Aww, thanks. Why are you up so early? I thaut you didn't like to wake up until at least ten.
Well, I have class in about an hour, and my mom spent most of the night at the hospital with my aunt, so they woke me up coming in.
Lou: Goodness, are they all right?
Yes, they're fine, but my uncle was in a motorcycle accident.
Lou: Will he be all right?
He should be. It doesn't seem to be anything life-threatening.
Loou: Th*relieved* That's good. Maybe it will teach Gonzo to be more careful. *giggles*
*giggling also* Yah, tell me about it!
