"A Loom of One's Own" - Never Forgotten: a Foster's Home Community

Doing a Google search, I found this site: http://usuarios.lycos.es/padrinosmagicos/fosguide.htm

It is a Spanish Foster's fan site. I just don't understand where the episode 53 ("A Loom of One's Own") comes from. I would be interested to know if that is a real episode and especially have an English translation (I don't understand any Spanish).

I do believe this is a real episode, because during the 2006 Foster's Comic Con Q & A, Lauren Faust talked about an episode they were working on, in which The Gang heads off to an amusement park and Bloo decides to travel with Madam Foster in her sports car (So he can get to the park faster and before everyone else), unfortunately for Bloo, Madam Foster decides to stop at a fabric store on the way to the park....comedy will more then likely ensue.

If you run the original Spanish text through Babel fish, you'll get something along the lines of the above episode description, so in this case this site is telling the truth and not making things up like so many rapscallions on Wikipedia and other such sites. The only bit of information I am iffy about however is the title of the episode they've got, since that info hasn't been made available to the public yet...

Thanks, this is what I got:

When all Foster's travels to the amusement park of the district, a desperate Bloo to arrive the sooner possible decides to go in the car of Mrs. Foster instead of waiting for the bus of the house - which largu�sima ends accompanying to Mrs. Foster during one visits the fabric store.

Not a perfect translation, but easy to understand anyway.

I'm Puerto Rican and understand it perfectly. "Larguisima" translated into English is "very long", which seems to be the amount of time Madame Foster will be at the fabric store. Looks like Bloo isn't going to have much fun

I must say that it sounds like a good premise... but I really hope that it won't have any predictable cliches where certain characters are barred from riding for being too tall/short/young, or worse, do the incredibly lame "someone ruining the trip for everybody else" twist AGAIN.

Yeah, Babelfish isn't as good as the real deal, but it does give you some indication of what's on the episode. We appreciate you bringing it up, Yuckie.

Ohhh... that descritpion of them taking a bus trip was for this episode. I thought they were talking about "Bus the two of us" wich I just saw today. I was wondering about that. Thanks.

Sounds cool! Poor Bloo.

I'm really looking forward to this episode, which sounds so funny because it's something I can personally relate to, having been stuck at a fabric store with an old lady when I was a kid myself. There cannot be anything more boring when it's YOU, but seeing someone else go through it, especially knowing that Bloo only rode with Madame Foster so he could get to the fair before everyone else, makes it that much funnier!

It's not as bad as a...... Dun,dun,duuun! (Dramatic re-bound)..... PURSE STORE! :O

I hope someone gets that Angry Beaver joke.

I did! I did! Or did I? Bum bum bum...dramatic re-verb...

I'm really looking forward to this as well. I love Bloo and Madame Foster's chemistry. The seem to bounce off each other really well.
