    Kelly (looking at computer): O ... M ... G ... 2014 is now my most favorite year.

    Cotterpin (mumbling in her sleep): MMMmmm ... if it doesn't suck ...

    Wrench (glances at computer): Who's that?

    Kelly (gets excited and jumps up and down): It's Angelina Jolie as Maleficent! How is that not absolutely awesome? I mean, she's not green, but gosh DANG she looks perfect! The movie is going to say why she gave a rat's behind about some birthday party. There's only one thing this movie could do to make it absolutely, positively, most awesomely epic perfect!

    Wrench: What's that?

    Cotterin (throws a pillow at them): Hadesshipping! Now either go to work or go back to bed!

    *Fannish grin. Was waiting to hear what Kelly thought of Joli as Maleficent, especially now that production's started and they put up the early photos of her in costume a couple of days ago at ign.filmforce.com
    Agrees that it would be that extra bit epicker if there was Hadesshipping, if they add it in the film.
    :batty: And remember, ve have Tim Burton to thank, as this comes from his slate after Alice 2010.
    UD: And then there's Seth Graham Smith's slate to get through before possibly Beetlejuice 2.
    Me: And the news of a potential new Sesame Street movie to get all three main branches of the Henson family in future film works.
    UD: It'll certainly be a good time to go to the movies.
    :batty: *Looks forward to Dark Knight Rises in a month's time.
    *Ed looks forward to seeing Anne Hathaway's Catwoman.
    *Uncle D looks forward to seeing how the League of Shadows figures into the plot.

    Ernie: Hey Bert, check out this neat turntable Ellie has! *starts spinning a record on it*

    Bert: That sounds awfully familiar...Play it normally this time.

    Ernie: *let's the record play*

    The record sounds so familiar because its Bert himself on the record, he can be heard singing 'Doin' The Pigeon'

    Ernie: Look at that: it's you Bert, ol' buddy, ol' pal!

    Bert: It is! Why is it on the turntable?

    Ernie: *starts spinning both records* This is neat! Give it a shot Bert!

    Bert: Well, if you insist. *tries his hand at spinning the records*

    Ellie: *walks in to hear awesome scratching (the proper term for spinning records) going on* Whoa, go Bert! *claps* Ladies and gentleman: MC B-E-R-T. You could go pro Bert!

    Bert: No, I...I couldn't...

    Ernie: Sure you could Bert! *whips out a camera* Keep on going buddy!

    Bert: ERNIE! *walks away from turntable*

    Ernie: Oh Bert, don't be camera shy! *follows him*

    Today. Is. GOOD!

    :news: Well...uh...good! *whispers to Rhonda* Why is it good?

    Rhonda: Search me, Sherlock. Hey, you, with the gray streak you really should buy some hair color for, why's it such a happy day?

    Pink: Mm. Cal-loo. Mn. Yip. Yip yip yip yip.
    Blue: Cal-lay, yip. Yip yip yip yip yip uh-huh.

    TODAY is a GOOD day because not only did I finish another chapter, not only did I actually get enough sleep for once, but I dreamt a short story and I'm gonna write it later!

    :news: Oh! Um. That...that IS good. Er...what's it about?

    You.

    Rhonda *eyeroll* Didn't see THAT comin'.

    :news: Er...m-me?

    Yep. And July Fourth. And the forgotten role of Muppets in American history.

    :news: Sounds...educational. *warming to it* Shall I inform Sam? Are we filming a documentary?

    Rhonda: We can't. Tommy's on vacation.

    And I'M on vacation after another week! An actual PAID one! And I might win a house! And I figured out how to sew boxer shorts! Woo hoo!

    Rhonda: She's off the meds again...

    Ailie: Jeff Goldblum?

    Sam: -gives her a blank stare-

    Ailie: Well, you said...

    Sam: >_> I wasn't talking about that terrible movie!

    Zoot: -lying on said chair, sleeping-

    Ailie: -steals it from the old man for no reason and runs off-

    Zoot: -faceplant- Buh! What the--?

    Sam: -snorts- Finally you're awake! It's about time you did something productive! Let's see...how about we organize my Everything That's Wrong With Society encyclopedias alphabetically...?

    Zoot: Uhhh...no? -picks up the last book- Hey man, how come I'm on the cover?

    Sam: ...you have to ask?

    :news: I didn't know Sam had published anything.

    Rhonda: That's what vanity presses are for, sweetheart.

    :news: I don't mind him doing commentary and op-ed pieces. I just hope he doesn't consider that news.

    Rhonda: Are you kidding? I'm sure he'll say NONE of it's news -- it's been the case for decades! Hee hee hee...

    Huh? Is it Frabjous Day already?
    Well well, the time has come!
    UD: The valrus said.
    Are you calling me a walrus?
    UD: Not unless you call me a Bloody Alice, I'm feeling peckish.

    Hmm, wonder if we can get Carl to deliver some of that saphron rice and vegetable curry chutney.

    Hector (Robin's former teacher and the guy interested in me) is over .He,Robin and I are playing Scrabble.

    Hector:Ah! Got one! he puts down QUOTH

    Robin: Quoth? What's that?

    Hector: It means said .There's a poem by Shakespeare called "The Raven " and in there it says "Quoth the Raven, Nevermore".
    Robin:Aww c'mon! I'm not gonna be readin' Shakespeare until high school! How should I know a word like quoth?
    Now Robin...don't be a sore loser.

    Hector: No...no...he's right. How about quote? replacing the "h" with an "e" You know what quote means.
    Robin: Okay..that's better. That's 14 points for quote. writing it down then putting MINES on the Scrabble board Double points for the "M" The M is worth 3 .So that's 6 ....10 all together! You're up,Mom!
    You took my spot you little smarty frog!
    Robin: I did? Oops!
    Uh huh...oops my foot!
    Hector chuckles Your poor mom Robin!
    Robin: Eh..she'll forgive me.
    Nah..I still think I'll sell him to the gypsies. ;) putting down steal 5 points. I have lousy letters. :rolleyes: What's the score Robin?
    Robin: Mr R. 75 you 50 me 48. That "mines" boosted my score.
    Thought so.

    Er Kathy... The Raven was written by American authorEdgar Allen Poe, not British dramatist William Shakespeare. Just thought you might want to know.

    UD: Spooking of which, are you working on Annabel Lee next?
    Noo... Though I have a descript in the files that could be checked and consulted with either Ru or Kris, as well as the Living Dead Dolls doll of her, I think I'll skip Ms. Lee in favor of moving on to Antaeus instead. Though if either Ru or Kris spot this and want to chip in their 2¢, that'd be appreciated as always.
    UD: Oh... And do you have the Grecian giant in the files as well?
    Yes... But I've come to think, and I like this idea, that it'll be :oops: monstrification.
    *Uncle D smiles, yes, that sounds most suitable for the clod.

    :o:oops: Quoth the kitty lover: How embarrassing! And to quote Animal : Sah-ree..
    Thanks for the correction Ed.

    Uh...what's all this then? Oi! What're you playing at?

    :news: Why are you speaking bad Cockney?

    Sorry, caught up with Matt Smith's first season finally... But what ARE you doing?

    :news: Oh. Fortifying! I just learned that...*lowers voice to a gruff whisper* there is a MONSTER TOWNHOUSE nearby!

    Uhhh...yeah. I saw that. All monsters, all the time.

    Rhonda *munching a crunchy apple* Y'ever see that show Doomsday Preppers? Consider this a spin-off. You gettin' all this, Jerry?

    *an aardvark with a camera on his shoulder gives a dew-claw-up*

    Ooookay. So, um, you're worried about them invading the apartment?

    :news: They could. They will, if we're not vigilant! Eternal vigilance is the price of freedom!

    Rhonda: You and Sam formin' a club, or what?

    Sam's Club. Heh heh heh. Best place to go for bargain flags and extra-strong window bars.

    :news: I'm not an idiot...see? These are the retractable kind, so we can enjoy some fresh air when the all-clear signal is given.

    Rhonda: Churchill would be proud.

    Just...hammer quieter, would you? I didn't get much sleep and it's too hot to doze now.

    Rhonda: Jerry, gimme a closeup of the plaster on his nose. That is hilarious.

    Oh, so people here know about the rival townhouse. Good. They're a bit crazier over there, but they mean well so I hope they have a good run. Hey Newsie, don't forget to call Grover if you need a lockmonster to get out of your own apartment!
    :batty: Heh, ve can't all be called 'Smith'.

    :news: A...a lockmonster??

    Uhm. A gag I wrote recently. Don't worry that cute felted head about it.

    :news: *shaking head* I worry about you sometimes.

    Rhonda: It's mutual.

    :news: Bad enough we have some of...of...er...those sorts of folks right here, but at least they're several levels down and you can tell when they're coming around...

    Really? I thought Deadly was pretty stealthy, for a guy with a huge flippin' tail.

    :news: Well, yes, but the temperature drops ten degrees.

    Rhonda *mimicking blowing out cold breath* I see...dead monsters!

    :news: MONSTERS? ACK! *dives into fiend shelter...peeks out three minutes later at the giggling, with a WWII helmet nearly covering his head* Are they gone?

    Rhonda: SOMEONE here is definitely gone.

    *Deadly, deciding if he should be flattered or insulted, lets it go with a dismissive shake of his head, goes to get some of the roast chicken for dinner.

    Hey Kris, can I get your help with Annabel and/or Antaeus, or are you heading out for now?

    Susie: Check.

    Ellie: Fuzzy PJ pants?

    Susie: You're wearing them, check!

    Ellie: Wii and controllers?

    Susie: Check! Um...what exactly is this all for?

    Ellie: An all-night gaming marathon!

    Bert: You'll need sleep at some point.

    Ernie: Oh Bert, that's what day time is for...for Ellie anyway.

    Bert: Ellie, are you having an identity crisis? Because you're most certainly not a vampire.

    Ellie: I know, what I am is a gamer! So, if you guys wanna join me in saving the universe from evil ninjas, you're free too. *holds controllers out to them*

    Ernie: I'm in!

    Susie: I'll play for a little...

    Bert: *sighs* Why not?

    *Happy tired sigh. Finished fixing KG 124, posted some thoughts. Still waiting to hear back from Bo on that haunter question I submitted. Time to relax. Then I need to grab a temporary replacement towel and head off to the showers.
    UD: I'll keep an eye out for the mail.
    Thanks. *Drops dead on the couch.

    :news: Here is a Hensonville News Flash! Evil ninjas have attacked our town! The stealthy assassins might have gone unnoticed on their deadly missions if not for the vigilant efforts of our own Ellie! This valiant neighborhood watch chairperson, along with Ernie, Bert, and Susie, have managed to fight off the first wave of night-time attacks! But residents are urged to remain on alert until this threat is determined by our own Police Chief Link to be over! Please, stay indoors after dark, keep your Wii handy, and report any suspicious activity to the proper authorities! Ninjas are known to drop in unannounced, so everyone needs to --

    *the Martians materialize right above Newsie, wearing black hoods and wielding macaroni nunchucks*
    Pink: AWWWwww! Mn. Nin-ja. Yip. Yiiiip yip yip yip yip yip yip.
    Blue: Awww, ninja. Yip yip yip uh-huh!

    :news: ACK! *struggles ineffectually under a mound of tentacles and flailing noodles* HAAAAALLLLPP!

    Rhonda *shaking head* I think this is a perfect example of how videogames are ruining our culture.

    Yep. Looks that way. *beat*
    Wanna go play some Muppet Party Cruise?

    Rhonda: You're on. I will kick your tail at the "Natural Disaster" minigame.

    You always do...I can never beat that one...I'll grab the cheddar bunnies.

    Rhonda: Kewl. Lemme get some iced tea. Be right there.

    Blue: Aww, Sam-mo, awwww yip yip yip.
    Pink: Mn, yip yip, entering dra-gon, yip yip yip yip yip.

    Hope they don't make Kris have to brake out the everlasting octogum of doom.

    I just bought a Temple of Doom, actually -- a used entertainment center. Massive heavy ugly three-piece thing. I plan to sacrifice to the Muppet gods upon it. Volunteers?

    Rhonda: YOU have had waaay too much sugar today.

    :news: *thwapping a Martian with his mic and being thwapped by Pixysticks in return* Ungh! Little HELP here?

    Rhonda: Sorry, sunshine. I don't do ninja rescues without some form of adequate compensation.

    :news: Argh! OWW! Er...I'll give you the pumpkin scone I was saving?

    Rhonda*twitching whiskers* Does it have icing?

    :news: *THUNK* *BIFF* *UNINTENTIONAL SNORFLE* Aggh! Yes! Yes it has icing!

    Rhonda: Well, all right then... *shoots off loud air horn*

    *the Martians all freeze*

    Rhonda: ALLLLL right you jellyfish freaks! Lay off! Go bug the guys in Apt 1 or something!

    Blue: Awww...a-part-ment?
    Pink: One! Mn. One. Yip. Yip yip yip.
    *they wriggle from side to side and vanish*

    :news: Thank you... *gives Kris hurt look* You could have helped!

    I don't do hentai. Not into tentacles. You okay?

    :news: *grumpily* Fine.

    I am, however, into felt...

    :news: It isn't as though you're not taller than them---WHAT?

    Rhonda: This looks like a good time to enjoy that scone by the pool. Seeya.
