Barnabas "She's Pretty, I Love Her" Collins

Perfect!!  [thumb]  As I've said many times, Barnabas so very rarely ever thought with the head on his shoulders.  [wink2]

When you're right, you're right MB. [ghost_wink]

As much as I love Barnabas, he did need to get his head out of the clouds. [ghost_embarrassed]

But then, would he be half as interesting to watch if he did? [ghost_nowink]

Indeed he would!  My heart always sinks when Barnabas starts going moony-spoony over a sweet young thing.

That's a basic dilemma of life, though.   It's just as well that it's represented on DS.    Pushing further into the issue would have been nice, and maybe an uncancelled DS in the early 70s would have.

Quite frankly, the characters of DS, not the supernatural elements, are why I enjoy the show, and a good deal of that is the friendship and jealousy between Barnabas and Julia. It's quite clear with Julia, from the minor things (her "Here we go again!" looks when Barnabas finds Josette in 1897 and finds Roxanne in 1970PT, as well as her "What else have you had, Barnabas?" in relation to Megan) to the major (her outburst over Angelique, and did it look to anyone else like [spoiler]she shoved Roxanne out of the PT room at the end of 1970PT?[/spoiler]). It always provided a good amount of entertainment from those two. Of course, the fact that Barnabas was thoroughly unwilling to let Julia get swept away by some other vampire is an interesting parallel to that.

Off topic here but something interesting happened recently.

I ordered my credit report from one of the big 3 and unbelieveably the password I got was: Gregorytrask.  [ghost_cool]
