Whowhere | Wednesday, February 27, 2002 - 10:58 am     Beaker and Fozzie Bear are not from Sesame Street, they are from the Muppets. Just thought I'd clear that up! "Wocka! Wocka! Wocka!" |
Babyruth | Wednesday, February 27, 2002 - 11:04 am     BUT I STILL LOVE HIM!!
NAME: Beaker BIO/STATS: The hapless (and helpless) assistant to Muppet Labs genius Dr. Bunsen Honeydew. APPEARANCES: First appeared in The Muppet Show. SPECIAL TALENTS: The ability to endure extreme pain on the job, yet still come back to work the next day. FAVORITE PERFORMANCE MOMENT: In an episode of The Muppet Show, Beaker was sucked into a cloning machine - moments later the Muppet Theater was filled with Beakers. LIKES: Medical insurance, ambulances that respond quickly and steel toe shoes. DISLIKES: High insurance deductibles FAMOUS FOR: His trademark 'meep-meep' voice. ALWAYS SAYS/DOES: See above. |
Babyruth | Wednesday, February 27, 2002 - 11:07 am     I love Fozzie, too (he's my Mom's fave)
Fozzie began his comedy career touring small clubs, where he recalls being hit by every variety of fruit and vegetable in the world. After a particularly nasty bonk on the head by an overripe cantaloupe, he decided that television would be a better (and less messy) way to make a living. As fate would have it, Kermit the Frog spotted Fozzie and asked him to join The Muppet Show. Since getting his big break in 1976 as resident comedian on The Muppet Show, Fozzie has shared the small screen with such legendary comics as Bob Hope, George Burns, Milton Berle and Jonathan Winters. He's also performed in feature films, television specials, home videos, and on records. Fozzie's advice to aspiring comics: "Always start with the funniest joke in your act. And if they don't like it, give 'em something funnier!" Copyright © 1999 The Jim Henson Company |
Whowhere | Wednesday, February 27, 2002 - 11:20 am     I'm partial to "Animal" myself.  |
Babyruth | Wednesday, February 27, 2002 - 11:34 am     Here ya go, Whosie
No one knows much about Animal: what he is, where he comes from, where he goes at night. That's probably just as well. He embodies the wild, uninhibited spirit of the Muppets and makes demands in simple phrases--"Want woman!" "Eat food now!" Though some may think of him as monosyllabic, his compatriots consider him pithy. Animal is splendidly cast as the drummer in the Electric Mayhem band. He's loud, excessive, prone to destruction, and he never fails to provide a good dance beat. But for all his unchecked passion, Animal is truly an innocent. His behavior often wreaks havoc, but he never intentionally causes harm. Copyright © 1999 The Jim Henson Company |

I've been thinking and thinking about my favorite phrase and although it's not my favorite my hubby says I say it all the time... "I'm Sorry"... I think it goes back to that firm Catholic upbringing... If hubby orders something at a restaurant and ends up not liking it ... "I'm sorry" Drives him nuts!! |
