(Being a slower song, it probably would have slowed down the pacing too much) It has always meant a lot to me, and when you really think about it, it&#8217;ll probably mean a lot to you as well.<\/p>\n<p>In the movie&#8230;here&#8217;s Gonzo, often ostracized for being weird and an oddball, singing a ballad about wanting to go back up to the sky where he felt free, accepted and at peace during an earlier accident with a bunch of helium balloons. Also one of Jim Henson&#8217;s all-time favorite songs, he probably was emotionally impacted by it in the same way as many of us were. I feel that while &#8220;Rainbow Connection&#8221; is the film&#8217;s anthem, <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">&#8220;I&#8217;m Going To Go Back There Someday&#8221;<\/span> is the film&#8217;s &#8220;Somewhere Over the Rainbow.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>I still get chills when I hear it, and Dave Goelz&#8217;s performance is amazing.<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ryEjm3k6uY0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;ve never been there, but I know the way&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Tuesday the 5th \u2013 DVDs FOR VETS, MEALS WITH MUPPETS! \u2013<\/span> When I got up around 2 I was feeling pretty good. My back pain was slowly and surely diminishing. I think that elastic wrap I\u2019ve been wearing has really been helping. And it makes total, logical sense if you think about it. The muscle can\u2019t heal when it\u2019s constantly being used, so by binding it up, it\u2019s not being used unnecessarily and has the support it needs to heal. I reorganized my video cabinet, which it was in sore need of. I took out about 50 DVDs I no longer needed, and even a few Blu Rays. I packed them up in a box with the intent of sending them to one of my favorite charities \u201cDVDs for Vets.\u201d They distribute donated DVDs to Veteran\u2019s Hospitals all over the country. As Vets are convalescing, or as older Vets are being treated, they like to have movies to watch. It\u2019s a great cause that touches my heart. This is the second big donation I\u2019ve sent to them. I cleaned the house for VIP visitors later that night, and got ready for my dinner meeting. I met my pal, \u201cComic Book Legend\u201d Paul Dini at Jerry\u2019s Famous Deli so we could chat with two Muppeteers who were in town for the big \u201cMuppets Take the Bowl\u201d concert. My pal Eric Jacobsen introduced us to Matt Vogel, who just took over the responsibilities as Kermit the Frog a few weeks ago. Matt and I share the credits in \u201cAlice Through the Looking Glass,\u201d as he plays Wilkins and I voice Humpty Dumpty, and a variety of other, smaller characters. It was great chatting, since Eric and Matt are huge Batman fans, and Paul and I are huge Muppet fans. In fact, at the beginning of the year Paul got four box seat tickets for us to see the opening night of \u201cThe Muppets Take the Bowl\u201d on September 8th! After dinner Paul had to leave to go do a signing for \u201churricane relief,\u201d and Eric and Matt came over to tour Planet Wallywood. Eric had toured it before, but Matt had not. When he walked in all he did was giggle and say, \u201cWow! Wow!\u201d It was one of the coolest reactions to my collection I\u2019ve ever received! But the most fun for me was getting them to sign the wall in my Puppet Room, and showing them my 1:1 Muppet Replica puppets. They were very impressed with the work of the builder who made them, and said they were very close to the real ones. They even put them on and moved them around a little bit. When Matt put Kermit on and ran Kermit through a variety of facial expressions, I was fan-boying inside! What a fun night! They looked through my book of Muppet stills, and enjoyed other collectibles. After they left I recorded my nightly auditions, and then grabbed a short nap. I got up later to do some bookkeeping, I fed and walked Roxy on our late night stroll through the neighborhood, made a sandwich and watched \u201cBarnaby Jones.\u201d It was a good episode, but it seemed like the producers were trying to develop a spin-off show called \u201cCounterforce.\u201d But it all seemed very forced and didn\u2019t work too well. This happens from time to time in old series TV, and it never seems to work very well when I come across those episodes.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Wednesday the 6th \u2013 LET\u2019S GET PHYSICAL (OR NOT!) \u2013<\/span> Around 1 I got on the phone with a few producers to do a redo of a session I did last week from my home studio. They wanted to do it again with a different \u201ccharacter\u201d voicing the piece. So we banged it out and then I did some more bookkeeping. I dashed off to a Physical Therapist\u2019s office to have him look at my back muscle. But I made the appointment last week, and he\u2019s so busy it took a full week to get into see him. As I suspected, my back was doing much better and it was almost unnecessary to see him at this point. When I got there, as luck would have it, I found out I had given them the wrong insurance info. They don\u2019t take the SAG\/AFTRA actor\u2019s union insurance for some reason. So I would have to pay for the majority of the treatment myself. And since by that time I didn\u2019t really need treatment, I told him I\u2019d call my insurance company and ask what to do. So\u2026no PT for me. I got the Mustang washed and then met my assistant Sara for lunch at Paty\u2019s. It was a fun day dining on the patio and enjoying the much-cooler weather. I dropped by my mailbox to get my packages, got an ice cream cone at McDonalds, and then home to do some work and relax a bit. I grabbed a short nap and then got up later to do my nightly auditions. I reconciled all of my business receipts, worked around the house and tidied up a few things. I got a LOT done and felt very productive! Then I made some sloppy joes and watched another episode of \u201cBarnaby Jones\u201d before bed.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Thursday the 7th \u2013 MUPPETICIPATION! \u2013<\/span> Around 9 I sprang from bed and got ready for the day. I was due to be in Santa Monica at 11 for a session for Autotrader. But the traffic down to the westside was horrible. Just as I was about to phone my agent to let her know I\u2019d be a little late, she called me! The producers were a little behind with their recording session. So it all worked out! I got to Lime Studios around 11:15 and waited in the lobby reading the Calendar section of the Los Angeles Times. There was a great article in there about the upcoming \u201cMuppets Take the Bowl\u201d show, and I took great interest in reading it. The article mentioned how people would see two, vastly different things on stage. If you wanted to just watch \u201cThe Muppet Show,\u201d all you needed to do was watch the big screens on either side of the stage. The camera operators would be cropping out the Muppeteers so it would look like an episode of the old TV show. But if you\u2019re an insane fan like I am, and you wanted to watch the artistry of the amazing Muppeteers at work, you should keep your eye on the stage. The team of puppeteers would be dressed in all black and performing the choreography necessary to bring the Muppets to life. I was getting VERY excited at the prospect of FINALLY seeing Muppeteers in action before my very eyes! I went into the session at 11:30 and was out by noon. Since I was just down the street from Campos, my favorite Mexican restaurant, I stopped over to get some food to go. I ate it in the car in the slooooooow freeway traffic on the way home. I got back home and walked Roxy, did a little work, and then went over to Voice Trax West for some American Airlines work. I was SO glad my back was better. Not only because I wanted to be in good shape for the Muppet concert Friday night, but I had two sessions to do today and I didn\u2019t want to be in pain. It all worked out very well! I had to postpone some American Airlines sessions from the previous week due to my back, but we\u2019re going to make them all up next week after I\u2019m completely better. Next time I jump rope or exercise I\u2019m going to WARM UP and stretch first! Lesson learned! I got home and fed the pets, and then grabbed a little nap. I got up later to do auditions and do a little work around the house. Sara came over later with food from Denny\u2019s and we watched an episode of \u201cBarnaby Jones.\u201d Though she\u2019s young, she enjoys the old shows.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Friday the 8th \u2013 FANTASMICAL FRIDAY! \u2013<\/span> Today was the day! I was finally going to see the Muppets live at the Hollywood Bowl! I got up at noon to let the maids in so they could clean. While they worked I did a few things around the house and tried to stay out of their way. I got my camera ready for the \u201cMuppets Take the Bowl\u201d concert later that night. I went through the card on my camera and deleted a ton of unnecessary photos to make some room. I had a second, unused card that I\u2019d be bringing along just in case, as well as a spare battery! I was going to try and run a few errands, but I looked at the clock and the afternoon was waning away quickly! Paul and his wife Misty called to say they were running late. They were going to meet at my house so we could all take a Lyft to the concert, but they\u2019re going to take the chance of parking at the Hollywood Bowl. My friend Carrie called to say she was running late as well. So I just hung around the house and tried to figure out what I was going to wear. I had a set of Kermit the Frog\/Mickey Mouse ears I bought at Disneyland years ago, but after I put it on I realized that it was \u201ctoo much.\u201d So I settled on a Muppet t-shirt that I had gotten as a gift and was ready to go! Paul and Misty ordered dinner to be delivered to our box seats, and that would be there by 6:45. Carrie arrived in the Lyft just after 6 and the traffic to the Bowl was great! In fact, Lyft has their very own traffic lane at the Bowl for pick-ups and drop-offs! Sweet! We got in the concert, I bought a souvenir t-shirt and we found our box seats. The dinner was amazing, the company was stellar and the evening was alive with magic! To say the show I saw was amazing would be the understatement of the year! I had waited most of my life to see what I witnessed on stage that night! I got teary-eyed more than once, and during the \u201cRainbow Connection\u201d finale I was literally weeping. It was very emotional, very meaningful, and very moving. Given the fact that at one point in my life I wanted to be a Muppeteer more than anything, the emotional impact hit me on many levels. I\u2019m convinced that life worked out the way it was supposed to, but\u2026what if? What if that could have been me on that stage performing a Muppet? Hmmm\u2026 I guess I\u2019ll never know. After the show Paul and I went to the \u201cWine Bar\u201d section of the theatre to see Eric and Matt. Eric was kind enough to get us on the list to stop by after the show and say hi. While I wasn\u2019t able to meet the legendary Dave Goelz (the only original Muppeteer still working with the group) I was able to shake the hand of the legendary Paul Williams! \u201cThe Phantom of the Paradise,\u201d \u201cThe Muppet Movie,\u201d etc. \u2013 his work has meant so much to me over the years. I told him I had just seen him in the 1979 TV movie \u201cThe Wild Wild West Revisited\u201d just a few days ago on DVD. He said when he did that he was about 148 pounds. He said James Cagney visited the set, and at the age of almost 80 he looked better than Paul did. So that\u2019s when Paul Williams decided to lose some weight and get into shape. What a truly amazing night. Paul Dini and I couldn\u2019t believe what we had just seen, as he\u2019s as big a Muppet fan as I am! He and Misty drove Carrie and I to my house, and I got to show Paul my 1:1 Muppet replicas. Then I made a pizza and Carrie and I watched a few episodes of \u201cTaxi.\u201d We took Roxy for a walk, and then I turned in for the night. What an amazing, dream-come-true-filled day!<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Saturday the 9th \u2013 SUPER SUMMER SATURDAY! \u2013<\/span> While I slept the morning away, my friend Edi let herself in so she could rest up in the Puppet Room. She had driven in from Palm Springs that morning and was tired. I told her I\u2019d be in my room sound asleep, but she was welcome to make herself at home. I got up around 2 and we headed out in the Torino to get lunch at Paty\u2019s. I stopped over at the UPS store to mail a few things, and then we went over to Hobby Lobby to buy some blank t-shirts and baseball tees. Her husband Elliot Lurie of the 70\u2019s group Looking Glass has a lot of shows coming up, and they wanted to have a lot of merch to sell at those shows. I\u2019ll take the shirts to Wizard Printing and have my Elliot Lurie\/Looking Glass design printed on them. The ones we\u2019ve had printed so far have been VERY popular! We went next door to Toys \u2018R\u2019 Us and I bought three more talking Jakks Batman figures to give out as gifts. The voice you hear on the Covert Combat Batman figure is me, so I like to have a few to give out to friends and colleagues. I even gave one to Paul and Misty Friday night! We stopped by the store to get some groceries for movie night, and then stopped by the dry cleaners to pick up a comforter I had cleaned. It was a stunningly gorgeous day and Edi and I had a great time tooling around in the Torino and enjoying the weather! By the time we made it back to Planet Wallywood, my assistant Sara was just pulling in to prep for movie night. We had a great time watching Steve Martin in \u201cThe Man with Two Brains.\u201d Edi, Sara, and our friend Brittney Powell did an impromptu photo shoot wearing the Elliot Lurie\/Looking Glass shirts to post on Elliot\u2019s website. Sadly though, my \u201cadopted Grandma\u201d Shirley wasn\u2019t able to come to movie night. She had taken a fall the day before and while nothing was broken, she was still fairly sore. I hope she\u2019s back in business soon and feeling better! After everyone left I took a short nap, and then got up to make my traditional Saturday night Super Salad. I watched the second \u201cWild Wild West\u201d TV movie called \u201cMore Wild Wild West,\u201d done in 1980. I\u2019m sorry I did, as it was very disappointing. But, the completionist in me is glad I saw it.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Sunday the 10th \u2013 WILD AT WARNER! \u2013<\/span> My pal Officer Mark came by my house around 2 so we could help our buddy James move some stuff around in his office. James works at Warner Brothers in Post-Production Services, and he needed some strong backs to help him redecorate. I had to postpone until my back was better, but I was ready and rarin\u2019 to go! Thought it was a hot day, I told Mark we should drive the Torino over and get some good shots on the lot while we\u2019re there. After we were finished with the work in James\u2019 office, I parked the Gran Torino in front of the famous facade used as Commissioner Gordon\u2019s office in the old \u201cBatman\u201d TV series. It looked very cool. But because the car looks so amazing, the tourists on the Warner Brothers Studio Tour were stopping to take pictures and video. They really got a thrill when I got in the car, started it up and drove it around the block on the backlot. I got to blow the siren and everything. I\u2019m driving through Warner thinking, \u201cI\u2019m driving my Starsky &amp; Hutch Gran Torino at top speeds through the Warner Brothers lot! Does it get any better than this?\u201d! The tourists sure loved it! I got home to get ready for evening church, but it was too hot out to walk Roxy over. My old friend the Reverend Dr. Marilyn Fiddmont was teaching that day, and she\u2019s always stellar! Her lessons always result in a standing ovation! I call her husband Uncle Norman, because he\u2019s the uncle of the old \u201cTonight Show\u201d keyboardist Wayne Linsey. After I heard Wayne call him Uncle Norman, the moniker stuck with me. They live in Houston and I was relieved to hear that they didn\u2019t suffer any damage in Hurricane Harvey. I got home and met up with Brittney so we could drive the Torino over to Barone\u2019s to have dinner with Officer Mark, James and his wife Cynthia. What a great time, but I was getting tired! What a weekend! I grabbed a nap and then got up later to do some auditions. I heated up some leftover Barone\u2019s pizza and watched another \u201cBarnaby Jones\u201d episode<\/p>\n<p>And how was YOUR week?!?!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">PIX FROM THE WEEK<\/p>\n<p><div id=\"attachment_4260\" style=\"width: 510px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.wallyontheweb.com\/wallysweek\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/ww_20170905_01.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4260\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-4260\" src=\"https:\/\/www.wallyontheweb.com\/wallysweek\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/ww_20170905_01-500x333.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.wallyontheweb.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/ww_20170905_01-500x333.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.wallyontheweb.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/ww_20170905_01-700x467.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.wallyontheweb.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/ww_20170905_01-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.wallyontheweb.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/ww_20170905_01.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-4260\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">What&#8217;s THIS?!
