Cassandra:  I have a potion.  You know it well.  As soon as she drinks it, within an hour, she will go to sleep and have the dream.

And in honor of DS' 39th, a new forum feature will debut at 4pm ET (the time that the very first DS episode made its debut  ;)).
(Look for more details to be posted on the Testing board...)

According to the DS Almanac, DS debuted at 4:00pm, then it moved to 3:30 on April 2, 1967, and then back to 4:00 on July 15, 1968.  ;)  (Though, of course, many stations aired it at various other times. For instance, for a time it was shown at 2:30pm in Boston, MA and at 8:30am(:o) in Providence, RI.)

MB, I'm just loving the anniversary slide show!

If anybody asks you why you created it, you can arch an eyebrow and intone:  "Because I CHOOSE to do so!"

birthday hugs, G.

Hmmm - there's an idea. But I would never steal that line from Dom.  [b003]

As for the slideshow, a new one will apear every day from now on up until June 26, 2006 as the forum anticipates DS' 40th. The slideshows coincide with the listings in the "history" boxes which now appear in the forum's header sections. More on all this will be posted on the Testing board shortly...

I love it that both Buzz AND Magda appeared in the very first one!
