Whatever happened to the doodad thread?

Did it just die out or did it get too big to handle?

This is really for Bruce to respond to
But a precis is: he was called on the amount of space it took up
He had to step out for a while for his own reasons, and took the thread with him

Sadly, the person who raised the objection (when no-one else did) is gone
and many are left mourning the doodads

Huh? I thought it was accidentally deleted when some of the pictures from it were deleted by Bruce.

it was rk, wasn't it?

It's not really a space problem. xoB had good reasons to do what he did and they are private reasons by necessity. Since then we have kinda said we are only removing a handful of posts for those who want/need them removed.

Well, the only thing to do is to go over to Bruce's house, photograph the entire collection, and create a PDF catalog.

We will of course include Buster and the rest of the Cellar, but I think Bruce dominated the category.

Bruce reminds me of the "Gather Ye Acorns" episode of Amazing Stories, where a 'fairy?' tells Mark Hamil's character to collect stuff he likes.

I wonder if Bruce knows any elves?

I'm sorry to being it up then. I thought it was a space/bandwidth issue. Nothing has been posted recently, so I thought the entire thread was wiped.

Is this picture of Frank Oz in the 70's?

@ elspode. I can't tell. I tried to look up the names in the picture url and the caption on the photo but nothing conclusive comes up.

Frank Oz

I really think it is Frank in his younger, but not too much younger, days. What an enormously talented guy he is. I'll bet he really misses Jim, too.

Excerpt from 'Before You Leap' A frogs eye view of Lifes Greatest Lessons by Kermit the Frog.



"We all don't have a Fozzie in our lives, and that's too bad because each of us really needs a Fozzie. We all need someone who believes in us and who believes that, no matter how bad things look at the moment, it will work out for the best. We all need someone who carries around a rubber chicken, a buzzer, and a whoopie cushion, just in case. We all need someone who never, ever gives up -- on us, on themselves, and on the dream that maybe this time that old joke will get a laugh. Most of all, we all need someone who needs us just as much as we need him or her.

That's Fozzie.

So go ahead! Get out there! Even if it's not Friday, find your own Fozzie. You'll be very happy you did."

Because " ... A best friend is someone who makes you laugh, even when the jokes aren't funny."

Seriously, folks...let's start a new dodad thread. I have nothing interesting right now, but certainly others do.

No lets not because this other thread needs to be used or die too.

That's random photos though...dodads are a whole 'nother level.

I HATE threads full of boxes that say....
