Considering the length of that letter opener/knife that Joe used to plunge into himself, and how much of it was still sticking out... I would say he barely got it through his clothes and maybe grazed his skin.. or maybe I was too sleepy to see it accurately. [twch2]
-
Jeez, and even if he did get it all the way in, I could think of more "pleasant" ways for Joe to kill himself than getting some letter opener lodged in his gut. Yucky :P. Well, yet another failed suicide attempt (i think?) courtesy of the DS writers I guess.

Uh-oh! :o Is that a Vam-Poll coming over the hill? [cue Blue Oyster Cult: 'Godzirra' ;D]

And no blood, remarkable! I kept seeing in my mind these play knive's that the blade retracts into the handle. Which is probably what they used. I guess they weren't into graphic sprays of blood in those days, however, when Barnabas would bite someone the first time he was a vampire he had blood all over his shirt front. Oh well.

Even though it was a very "dramatic" scene. For years now I always get a chuckle out of the line by Angelique to JOe. When she says to him, "Put down that letter opener, you look ridiculous!" :) Angie always had a gift for understatement, but that line took the cake!

What got me was when she said to Joe, "you bore me!"
Why? was Jeff Clark more exiting? [hdscrt]

Well, perhaps Jeff Clark had a better...........Neck! :o

and just what was the purpose of "the cutting of the sweater" when attending to Joe's wound? ... Joooolia, all you had to do was lift it up a little..[idea2].. Duh! lol... these scenes just crack me up
-
:o If she had just lifted Joe's sweater, she wouldn't have seen the BITE MARKS! AFAN Do we think that she is stupid or something?;D ;D ;D HaHa

I have a friend who has the very same type of letter opener that Joe Haskell used in his lame suicide attempt.
My friend says that letter opener could barely cut melted butter, much less do any damage to a human being...
Good work, Joe! [thumb]
I'm not surprised my friend has the same letter opener; he reminds me a lot of Nicky Blair.
Is that a bad thing?

If he wanted to hurt himself he should've just banged his head on the boom mike like everyone else. :)

What got me was the fact that Barnabas just stood there talking with Angelique, instead of pulling the letter opener out of Joe.

Well, cutting the sweater is just so much more dramatic, ya know! Too bad it wasn't Adam's sweater ;D
And those scissors used by Dr. Julia looked about as sharp as that letter opener. Grayson Hall seemed a tad irritated as she tried to cut that sweater... she looked about ready to tear it off. Now THAT would have been something to watch! :o

Dear Candlelighter,
I got nervous as Julia kept tearing away at Joe's sweater with those scissors with about as much reckless abandon as Teddy Roosevelt employed, waving his saber as he charged up San Juan Hill with the Rough Riders! I thought that Julia was going to give Joe a much worse cut wound to his throat than Angelique did.
I shudder to think what "damage" Julia could have done if Joe had stabbed himself in the upper thigh instead of the stomach. (Joe Haskell, Collinsport's only known living eunuch!!!)

If you ever happen to be in the presence of someone who stabs themself in the gut with a letter opener, do NOT, I repeat, do NOT pull it out! It is much better to keep the stabbing utensil in place and the person will not be as likely to bleed to death. This public service announcement has been brought to you by the NRA.

Ohh, I dunno. Is he more than a friend? If not, is he single and are willing to introduce him to me? Sounds like a VERY good thing to me!
-
(I)s he single and are willing to introduce him to me? Sounds like a VERY good thing to me!
Yes, he is single and I will introduce you if you like...but seriously: this guy is Nicky Blair--from the moustache to the aerodynamic hair to the grasp of the occult.
[liteye][vryevl][eek]
But who knows? You may very well be his Maggie Evans!
?!?
-
Well, I love Little Nicky's looks and devil may care grin. And he's such a HAPPY guy. But maybe, as a Christian, I should pass on being introduced to the devil? Tempting though.... [wink2]

Nope, it wasn't Tom Jennings or Quentin ::)
