Heya Danny! I sent you an e-mail a few days ago, did you get it?— Joe (talk ) 15:12, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

Value of Imagination
My god! I've been stressed and felt like I was falling apart all weekend, and today deliberately been staying away from the Wiki for the most part while trying to finally overcome a delayed paper proposal. I decide to take a peek, and then I find this! I *had* several of those books (and almost all of them gave their hero a talking sidekick, so Lincoln had a talking penny, Hans Christian Andersen a duck, Will Rogers held long conversations with his lasso, even Nellie Bly went undercover in asylums accompanied by a mouse, etc.) So discovering that there was a Jim Henson ValueTale, with purple livestock no less, has made my day (and, I think, been just enough of a morale boost to get me over the hump). So muchos gracias! -- Andrew Leal (talk ) 01:06, 7 November 2006 (UTC)


 * De nada. I've got some more on this to add -- and if I really get frisky, I may scan in a couple of the more amusing illustrations. I hope your paper proposal's going well... -- Danny (talk ) 02:16, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

Mercy Mayor
I love it. Also, going through the list, outside of teeny Thaddeus, mayors in the Muppet universe *are* pretty darn useless. I'm still working on President of the United States (next step, coverage of Muppets as candidates), and I have no idea where to mention the fact that in a "Global Grover" segment, a cricket keeps calling Grover "guv'nor," though Grover states that "I'm not a guv'nor. I haven't even run for office!" -- Andrew Leal (talk ) 04:05, 5 November 2006 (UTC)

Sesame Place & Big Bird
He might have been made a judge, but I thought you might want to know that he was elected president in the Sesame Place Presidential Election. -- Brad D. (talk ) 23:15, 4 November 2006 (UTC)


 * That is unbelievably great. That'll be the Today on MW for Election Day... -- Danny (talk ) 00:17, 5 November 2006 (UTC)

Music Boxes
Hey Danny, why the edit on "Sweet Gingerbread Man"? We've been putting the music information boxes above the pictures for some time now. -- Peter (talk ) 05:20, 4 November 2006 (UTC)


 * We have? D'oh, I forgot. Do we have a style guide type page that lists stuff like that? -- Danny (talk ) 12:36, 4 November 2006 (UTC)


 * I'm not sure. There are still a couple of stray pages where the song box is on the bottom, but not many.  Right now, the only boxes going below pictures are for Designers on character pages and Books.  -- <font color="Blue">Peter  (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 17:02, 4 November 2006 (UTC)

Philly meetup
Hey Danny- There is a Wikipedia meetup in Philly this Saturday (see this); I'm planning to go. I know you're not really into Wikipedia, but it still might be worthwhile...

Rafael (ike9898) who you met at Wikimania and who has a Wiki on a really dry topic. ike9898 22:07, 1 November 2006 (UTC)
 * BTW, I just hit the 'recent changes' on you wiki and saw that you've had 500 edits in the past 24 hours. That is freaking unbelievable...  ike9898 22:11, 1 November 2006 (UTC)
