Cool, somebody read this. I hope it didn't come across as preachy. I actually had all of this planned well before certain recent legislation hit the news, so he's not commenting specifically on Arizona and Ohio and, sadly, my home state of Georgia.

No, I don't think it's preachy. Well, maybe a smidge, but it mostly comes across as Scooter being Scooter (at least in the line of your ficverse). And positive messages are what the Muppets are about. So I say you dun writ good there. It's an important subject and I like the way it was handled herein.

Vicki: Should we file this story sir?
Not yet, it's still unfinished. Let's see how the rest of it develops.

Heh, well, an "it gets better" video has to be at least a little didactic if it's to be effective. I hope I kept it "in voice." Part of it came straight out of my life.

It'll go live later that day. Where will the fallout begin? Place yer bets!

Why? Why Mup Cen do you not tell me when this gets posted? Y U NO TELL ME!?

I sorta saw the confessional from Scooter, but was pleasantly surprised that you made it into a 'it gets better' video. Truthfully, I haven't like a lot of those (cause they do seem a bit preachy or commercialized), but I like Scooter's personal take - he's a celebrity, but he's someone who is speaking from the heart about being gay and being afraid of telling friends and family.

Another thumbs up for Piggy, especially allowing the poking fun at her by the girls. I do like your Piggy - the tough of nails on the outside, soft inside; that has always been the Piggy I've liked and glad you (and Disney) has brought that diva back.

WHat what what??

I did see a chapter show up in my inbox, which I read. It was the last one, about Piggy calling Kermit and telling him - sorta - about what happened with Seymour and Flint. Was there one before that that I missed?? :eek:

And cross promo indeed - 3 ball's gonna be updated this week.
