Dana, if you are the easily made sniffly sort, don't watch to the end of part 2.
Uh-oh. But I can't stop now!

I LOVE that one.
Kaylee: So, uh, how come you don't care where you're going? Book: 'Cause how you get there is the worthier part.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

I love the Pigs in Space where they reach the end of the Universe.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Uh-oh. But I can't stop now!
Get kleenex. LOTS AND LOTS.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Did Harry Belafonte really get up and sing this song? I would have so completely lost it at that point.
As you've seen, yes. I ran into him on an elevator about six months later and asked him how he'd gotten through it. We stood there bonding about how beautiful Jim Henson was.

YES! I will have to watch that when I get home and can listen to it too, because the vocalizations are one of the funniest things about that.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
I still yearn to find footage of Gilda Radner singing "Poor Wandering One" on The Muppet Show, as that's the version that burned its way into my skull rather than the Linda Rondstadt performance on Broadway.

They were conveniently close by. Good thing. And then I watched the Koozebanian mating ritual.

We had layoffs yesterday, so I sent this to those of us still left today. Layoffs suck!

I keep seeing this story on Google Finance
Greenspan Concedes to `Flaw' in His Market Ideology
The title reminds me of the Death Star in Star Wars IV.
"Sir, I've analyzed the market and there is a potential flaw in this economy, should we regulate?"
"Regulate now? In our moment of growth? I think you overestimate the risk."

Favorite Muppet Show sketch?
Two that stand out that haven't been mentioned are "Time In a Bottle" sung by a young muppet who got older as he sang (put a lump in my wee young throat), and one with two old muppet dudes who called each other "old bean." My BFF at the time and I thought that was hysterical and called each other "old bean" for a long time after.
