Title: Move Over, Arnold Schwarzenegger!

Dear Fellow Dark Shadows Fans,

During the last few minutes of today's second episode, I witnessed a feat of estraordinary strength.  As Peter Bradford finished digging up Angelique's "grave," an obviously angst-ridden Ben Stokes leaned up against a mighty oak tree.  Lo and behold, the mamoth tree began to shake as if struck by a bulldozer!  I mean it was incredible to see Ben literally tear the tree up from its roots.  (I thought that the tree was about to come tumbling down on Vickie's attorney/inamorata.)

I always knew that Ben was as strong as an ox, but this feat was positively Herculean.  I think that Angelique made a major mistake when she rejected the romantic overtures of Big, Bad Ben Stokes.  Why, I'd even go so far as to say that Ben Stokes makes the Terminator look like a "girly-man" by comparison.

I can see it now: "ESPN presents Muscle Up with Benny 'The Biceps' Stokes."

Excuse me while I attempt the next Pilates maneuver.  Oh the pain, the pain!!!

One often reads references to the trees, tombstones or whatever that move.  As a rule I don't notice that too much, but this one was SO unmistakable!!  I guess they were just lucky that it didn't fall over!

Nathan Forbes too.  :o When he was beating on the door while Barney bit Suki, the very walls of the Old House threatened to fall down! Now that's what I call real MEN!
