Connie,
     That was so good. LOL!  My husband laughed and he isn't even a fan of the show.  Brava!   [hello] and take a bow [9050], Connie.

   I also would have liked more of Tony Peterson.  However, I think he high-tailed it out of town after all the weird business with the Collins family.  You know that kinky cousin relationship between  Barnabas and Carolyn, wild-eyed Dr. Hoffman issue, and witch enthrallment problems.  Heck, he probably has a lucrative law practice in sunny California.

And then Quentin and Julia had to dig up Michael's grave.  It's interesting - there have been a lotta grave openings on DS, and almost always only two people are involved, and they would have a short period of time to not only dig it up, but pull the casket out of the hole.  Has anyone ever tried lifting one of those things?  I've been a pallbearer for several funerals, and with six of us hoisting that thing around, we all hoped that the whole thing wouldn't go crashing to the ground as we strained every muscle.  And yet Quentin got that thing up out of the ground all by himself.  I imagine that his portrait now includes two slipped discs and one really good hernia.

I'm still amazed they didn't just wrap Michael's body in a sheet and dump it in a ditch (the way several illustrious Collinses have been interred).

What always boggles my mind is just how immaculate everyone always looks after disinterring the bodies. No sweat. No mud. No clumps of dirt clinging to the shoes. Nope, just like the ladies who decide to take a midnight stroll with no illumination through the dark Maine forests, the grave robbers invariably look like they have stepped out of a bandbox.

     This could have been staged a little better.  Quentin kept his suit coat on and buttoned the whole time he was digging.  He should have had his coat off and his sleeves rolled up.  The make-up artist could have made him a little dirty and disheveled.  Julia standing there holding his coat.

Hi Debra,
     I am glad to see you're posting.  It took me years to get up the gumption.  I was born in Southern California but have lived in Maine for 14 years.  I turned 45 in March and have two boys(13 and 7).  Guess what, I don't have a drop of Italian blood in me and neither does my husband.  I have some German blood and who knows what else.  However, I love Italian food and don't much care for German food.
    I have been a fan of Dark Shadows since I was a little kid but didn't get to see it all through uninterupted until I was an adult.  I begged the cable company in my area for the Sci-fi Channal then got to watch DS all the way through and Sci-fi cancelled it. >:(  I turned to this board for solace.  Great place, lots of experts and funny, fun people.  Glad you're here, too. :-*

Dear Kuanyin,
     I had wondered where you have been.  Many blessings and best wishes.  I have two mentally challenged children and if you find anyone who can help you cope, you are truly blessed with an angel.  He sounds like a keeper.

Happy Birthday, Daphne.  Too young to drink and too old for Chuck E. Cheeses.  I'm sure you'll find something fun to do. Have a good one! :-*

Current Talk '03 I / The Horror of the SPOON
« on: April 30, 2003, 03:38:02 PM »
     I will have nightmares for a long time to come.  Elizabeth Stoddard coming at me with a spoon is too horrific to contemplate.  Poor helpless Paul  is too weak to fight the SPOON.   All is lost.
   I'm sorry folks but they really needed the fictious Dr. Reed with a hypo or men in white coats holding a straight-jacket to pull this off.  Elizabeth holding a spoon menacingly just makes me giggle. ;D

Dear Gregory, who proved he wasn't as dab a hand at seclusion as he preached, trashed the portrait shortly before ending his time on this, our earth. After which, his wife decided to seal up the room.

So anyone want to tell me how the hell said picture resurfaced, unharmed and got into the hands of Charles Delaware Tate so that he could re-use the canvas?

Inquiring minds want to know.

   Great column, Luciaphil.  I thought the yutz was such a constipated artist that he painted nothing but Amanda Harris paintings(big portraits, small portraits, wallet size protraits and a few on velvet.

   By the way, my brother is a doctor and everyone calls him. When he was in med school, he received a frantic call from a wealthy friend of my father.  The man told my brother that his daughter had just received a strong volt of electricity.  My brother was 200 miles away so he told this rich man to call 911.   The rich man proceeded to get all huffy.  Later, my father called my brother to tell him he should have helped.  So maybe Dr. Hoffman is always called just because she's there.  I wonder if she ever bills anybody.

I always thought that the sound of this breathing sounded pretty creepy!  But when Megan said it was a faulty radiator, I had to laugh!  It sounds nothing like a faulty radiator!  Far from it.  She could have said it was something on the television set and that would have been more believable.

Deb

    The radiators in my old house can make the weirdest noises.  The radiator in my oldest son's rooms sound like someone laughing through their nose.  The radiator in my youngest son's room sounds like a wolf's howl.  We had to adjust that quickly since it was scaring the heck out of him.  Fortunately, the rest of the radiators are quiet.  Thankfully no breathing sounds.
