After seeing Travis' Muppety collection at Pallisades website it got me to thinking how great the internet is.
Before the internet I grew up thinking I was really the only person who had a deep appreciation for the Muppets. I had a lot of toys and such (not as comprehensive as Travis' collection in the least though). I remember in 6th grade we had a career day and we were to dress like what we wanted to be when we grew up. I borrowed my friend's Animal Muppet and dressed like a hippie and went as a Muppeteer. Everybody thought I was crazy and wanted to know when I would grow up because Muppets were for kids. Didn't matter to me though. But I wished that there had been kids like you guys around to support my Muppet fetish.
The same thing goes for my Bewitched obsession. Before the internet I believed I was the only person who loved the show and had a crush on Elizabeth Montgomery. Now after meeting some people on the internet who love Bewitched as well I finally have some one to discuss the show and her with w/o them giving me guff about such a silly obsession. And I realize that no matter how much you love the Muppets or Bewitched or anything else there is some out there who loves them more....
