Stephanie D'Abruzzo

I was poking around LiveJournal and found this great Oobi-related post from gwenxsmurfette. I asked if I could publish it here and she said of course! Here it is:

Hey. I met Stephanie D'Abruzzo (who plays Uma) back in April 2005. Here's our picture together:

She's on the left. I look terrible in that picture. Feel free to play "Guess What's Up My Nose."

Stephanie is currently in a hilarious Broadway musical called Avenue Q (yes, it's got puppets in it). Anyway, you can go to the stage door and meet the cast members. So that's how I met her. I even told her I watched Oobi even though I'm a high-schooler and she was all, "I loved working on that show! But... just don't start talking like they do." It was great.

A brush with greatness. Now I'm jealous!

Fan Video Friday!

Today I discovered the awesomeness that is modern YouTube. More specifically, all the fan-made Oobi videos on there. It's so cool that so many people have been inspired to make their own home movies with Oobi. Maybe I should start my own Oobi channel! I'm sure Ethan would be on board!!

Anyway, without further ado, here is the latest weekly feature of Grampu's Blog: Fan Video Friday! Every week I'll find an Oobi video and post it here. There are a ton to choose from already. I decided to go with this hard-core Oobi reimagining of "Sour Grapes" by the Descendents. Funny stuff!!
