Maker Faire!

My husband and I are thinking of attending this GREAT sounding Faire in the Bay Area this weekend called: Maker Faire. We've never been but, hear it's great! Whilst perusing the programs listed, I found this little gem: "Star Wars Sock Puppet Craft" I do not know HOW this can possibly top the GREATEST "Star Wars" sock puppet show(s)* EVER but, I want to go! Right now!! The craft is hosted by Bonnie Burton. You can see a really great Yoda finger puppet (pictured above) on Starwars.com.

* The absolute end-all-greatest-ever "Star Wars" Sock Puppet show(s) I've EVER seen were performed on Angel Island in SF and for a SFBAPG Guild challenge.

Puppet Fun on "30 Rock"

Screengrab snagged from the awesome Alan Sepinwall's TV Blog "What's Alan Watching"

In the great tradition of swapping out your cast of people for a cast of puppets (the first time I saw this was on "Angel"), comes "30 Rock" episode "Apollo, Apollo". If you are not yet a fan of this show...this should turn you into one! Alan Sepinwall has a fantastic review up on his blog. You can watch the episode for a bit on Hulu. Get to it!
