I have a question that I bet all muppet fans were wondering. If you could any muppeteer, who would it be? I for one would meet either Steve Whitmire (I love his Kermit voice), or Julianne Buescher (I hear talk that she's a good puppet Builder) or maybe even Dave Goelz (Who wouldn't want to see a Muppet Veteran)

I met Fran Brill, Kevin Clash and Dave Goelz at Muppets Music and Magic. He gave me all his characters signatures. Photo is at http://www.flickr.com/photos/11686099@N03/1183079677/, http://www.flickr.com/photos/11686099@N03/1183870598/, and http://www.flickr.com/photos/11686099@N03/1183788022/. Here is the entire poster at http://www.flickr.com/photos/11686099@N03/1161106417/. It also has Gonzos autograph. Dave also gave me Boobers autograph on the events poster next to Boobers picture. I would like to meet every other muppeteer and get their characters autograph. Steve Whitmire I heard lives in Atlanta. When i went to the Center for Puppetry arts A guy that works there told me Steve has visited.

Anyone, would def be Richard Hunt, but living I'd have to say Steve Whitmire. Something about the guy. I remember in some documentary, I think it was a SS one, he talked about how he had dreamt about Jim being back and how he was worried he'd have to give Kermit back to him. But Jim being the guy he was just told him to keep doing what he was doing. Hmm, I guess I'd really like to meet Jim too. :smile:

Out of the ones I'd like to meet who are still with us? Definitely Frank Oz and Kathy Mullen and Fran Brill (who I didn't get to talk to at the Huntington/Muppet event last summer). I had a chance to meet Mr. Oz that I didn't follow through with because I was trying to do the right thing at the time, and today I kick myself for it. And of course I would've loved to have met Jim and Richard

Steve Whitmire for me as well. I think it'd be really interesting to talk to him, and he always comes across as a really nice guy.

And I guess he's no longer really a Muppeteer, but I'd love to meet John Tartaglia. I love how well crafted and innovative Johnny and the Sprites is.

It would have been Richard Hunt if I were able to go back in time.
Sadly, that will never happen.

Mmm, I'd like to come across all of them if even possible.
I think I'd scare them out of their pants!

XD I'm a hyper person.
