“When I was young, my ambition was to be one of the people who made a difference in this world.  My hope is to leave the world a little better for having been there. ”   - Jim Henson

Albert feels the same way.  He's just...a tad more of a longshot, let's say.

P.S.  Many many thanks for sticking around as the audio and video projects get juggled with the duties of life.  There's one which - I hate to say it - I'm about to film again for the third time.  I had an idea for a short where Albert does a lesson module for his new online Anti-Sex University.  I wrote it, filmed it, tried editing it a few different ways...wasn't odd or funny enough.  Rewrote it, hauled everything back to the set about a mile away, filmed it again, edited it...and it just isn't it.  So I've rewritten it again and this week I'm filming it a third time.  It's reached a kind of desperation level where it must someday exist so all those many hours aren't lost, but I have to keep rescuing it from the pit, so to speak.  I think I have it this time, so.....*fingers crossed*  If/when it shows up on YouTube, I'm sure folks will have no idea, it'll just look like another Albert vid.  But the hardest projects are the ones where it has to look like a character is completely oblivious and beyond caring how it goes, but that the viewer can detect the sneaky complexity under it all.  That recent one where he gives the presentation to the univeristy committee, that was filmed twice - there's a whole other version that was filmed at a different location and has been consigned to the flames of cloud storage...

Would love to hear the book about how Disney murdered Jim Henson. Given that we know Disney records the eyes of all the dead children for use in Pixar films, one can only imagine the depravity Disney would sink to in order to get Henson's hands out of the Muppets back-sides for good.

Never Got Famous

I'm going to have to follow up with that. Make it like a true-crime drama, maybe an episode of Liquid Explanations? Hmmm. Oh man, I'm just remembering that concept about Pixar and the eyes, but can't remember where it's from. One of the audiobooks?

It was, I can't remember which one but I remember albert meeting a homeless who used to be an executive at Pixar who quit after he found out the truth lol

Speaking of "missing albert moments"; I've been trying to locate the one where Albert talks about how in the 70's, "getting anal" was easy and that anyone could go into an alley and ask some men; " Hey, could I get some anal?". I've been trying to find this one for a while. kills me every time. Ill keep an ear open for the concept regarding Pixar and the eyes.

(China voice) No more anal!

Never Got Famous

Oh wait, was that a puppet? That sounds like something Reducey-Risk Reindeer would have said long ago...the funny thing about being characters, it's hard to remember what you said because it wasn't quite you saying it.

I bet it is. Channeling all those people. lol incredible.
