Blogger Confessional© Stupid things we do as children


As a child, I loved this show, and of course am jacked about the movie, that is now not being released until almost 2009.

When I was a kid, every house that I ever went to, I always checked the basement for Fraggle Holes. If I have been to your house, I have looked. Trust me. I knew it was a show...but a part of me so wanted it to be real, that I always checked...just in case.

One time, I was at someone's house, and they had a small hole in one of the walls...i was so excited, and asked them about it, not implying it might have been a fraggle hole, because that would have been ridiculous...but they proceeded to inform me that it was a crack in the foundation, and that they dug out all the loose concrete.

I was devastated.

Remember that show The Littles? I LOVED that one too. They used human stuff as furniture and their own house hold items - so cool. Or did you ever have Charmkins?? I don't know what the fascination is with things that are hidden or wee. But I loved it.

Fraggle Rock seasons 1 & 2 are out on DVD... I have them. Loove all things Muppety.

I love Wembly Fraggle.

Speaking of people that look like the Queen Gorg... Anyone here watch Coronation Street? Cilla looks just like Queen Gorg, and she's a major jerkface too.

SS said...

Y - if you dont have anything good to say about the fraggles, dont say anything at all. No negative comments are welcome here.

If only fraggle holes and fraggle worlds existed . . .

I dreamt of them as well.

I never really watched fraggles. Don't know why, it was on when I was young, just wasn't on my radar. Though I remember reading a freinds college thesis which was all about the politics of the fraggles. How the whole show was a treatise on capatalism (specifically a laise faire society - ie. the fraggles) vs. communism (the Dozzers). I don't remember much, just that I was fascinated with this insane interpratiation.

Childhood... Such a carefree and simple world. By biggest problem was hiding my report card from mom.

Im still trying to figure out new ways...
