Title: Are There Any "Signs" Of Crop Circles In Collinsport?
Post by: Bob_the_Bartender on August 03, 2002, 07:39:31 PM
Hey gang,

Mel Gibson's new paranormal flick, Signs," got me thinking about the possibility of crop circles in Barnabas' hometown.  Now, while I know that Collinsport is primarily a fishing village, I believe that Joe Haskell's uncle had a farm outside of town.  In addition, that renowned and avuncular 18th century gentleman farmer, Mordecai Grimes, had a spread of land adjacent to Collinwood.  

Of course, it's hardly likely that the source of any crop circles in Collinsport would be of an extraterrestrial nature.  (There are already enough ghoulies, beasties, and things that go bump in the night to be the source of any crop circles in town!)

So, if crop circles began appearing in either the potato or oat fields, what would they look like?  I think that if Barnabas had a crop circle, it would be in the shape of Josette's music box, as a tribute to his timeless love.

If Roger Collins had his own crop circle, it would probably be in the shape of a brandy snifter in the middle of the circle.

Nicholas Blair's crop circle would undoubtedly feature a circle surrounding a very prominent pair of smiling upper and lower teeth.

Can you think of any other appropriate crop circles for other Dark Shadows characters?  Suggestions for Liz, Willie, Maggie, Adam, the beloved Jeff Clark, Prof. Stokes, Julia, and, of course, Bob Rooney will be most appreciated.

Sincerely,

Bob the Bartender, avid Art Bell listener.

Hey Ringo,

Let's see.... Mrs. Johnson, no?  How about Portia Fitzsimmons (a/k/a/ "Lovelady" Powell)?  No way, huh?

Well, if it isn't a representation of the timeless beauty of Ms. Bathia Mapes, I guess that I'd have to go with.....



          Ms. Kathryn Kringstad of Robbinsdale, MN!

Great ones!

Julia's would have a medical bag or a syringe.  Mrs. Johnson would have a dinner plate complete with something burnt or dust rag.  That afghan would turn up in one of the crop circles since it shows up everywhere.

A crop circle for Jeff Clark would include a large can of Aqua Net Hair spray & a tube of Brillcreme. ;D

How about either that Col. Klink-like monocle of Prof. Stokes in the middle of a crop circle or the good professor's Sicilian talisman (with the accompanying Italian incantation) which, incidentally, Barnabas never returned to Stokes?  (You can't lend that man anything!)

Of course, a representation of a Harley-Davidson motorcycle would be the immortal Buzz Hackett's crop circle.

And, how about a "whoopee cushion" crop circle for the irrepressible Carl Collins?

Roger's would be a brandy snifter.....

I have my own theory on crop circles.  I think they're just Target commercials!

Barnabas' crop circle would be in the shape of all his young lady loves,Julia would have a medical bag,Willie a hammer or any of the varied and sundry tools he uses in his work at the old house,Angelique a voodoo doll and/or the needle used to prick it,and Stokes would be a book or some scholarly thing.

:DWhat an interesting concept! Adam would have a puzzle-type face; Barnabas' would be the outline of a man in cape with cane; Chris Jennings, a pentagram, of course.  Just a note on "Signs": my grandson was a "double" in the movie. One day my sister, who lives a short distance from the crop circle field, took him to the set. She hasn't stopped talking about it yet!! She is to be avoided at all costs!!  ::)
