82 and counting. A long way to 175, isn't it?
Here's a recent photo of the 82 year old former vampire posing on his patio in a bathrobe
What is this penchant Frid has for posing outside half-dressed? Next thing you know he'll be - no, lets not go there!
And speaking of pictures, a funny anecdote about "My Son The Vampire" is that when one of my aunts saw the pictures of a bare chested Frid reading in bed and in the (gasp!) shower, in utter astonishment she showed them to my mom and marvelled that Frid would have allowed himself to be photographed "that way" and that children were allowed to see "such things." ::) ;D If she were still alive today, I can't even begin to imagine what my aunt would think about the things that today's kids are routinely exposed to...
MB, I guess your aunt wouldn't approve of this photo either. :-X
Yeah, but he'll make it, no sweat - phoning into the Dark Shadows Fest in 2100 and thrilling our great-grandchildren.

"My Son The Vampire"
Do you dress to match your outdoor environment? [santa_rolleyes]
Oh, maybe something a little more, let's say, personal? <santa_wink>

Um, hate to burst your bubble, but your link went to the exact same place as mine did! ;) I don't know what changed, but that link used to go RIGHT to page 4 w/the picture, at least it did this summer when I posted it in another thread. [hdscrt]When you post a URL with that goldstats.com garbage at the beginning, it frames the top of the page with the GoldStats branding -- search box and ad. As a webmaster -- and as the webmaster of this site in particular who knows that its owner pays not to have random advertising and junk placed on his pages -- I'm not a big fan of this. Because of that frame, you can browse to any page on Bob's site, and the URL stays the same. That's why your link won't go directly to the page you mention. I specifically design all of my very web sites to avoid this very problem. So there are two things about it that are irritating -- it sticks advertising on the site and it screws with the navigation. I don't need the Goldstats folks' help to look incompetent as a webmaster. I do just fine on my own. [santa_cheesy]
That tree behind Mr. Frid appears to be in full Canadian autumn foliage. If that's the case, and he's standing around in his bathrobe.....someone PLEASE get him back in the house, warmly dressed, and hand him a brandy!!!... [santa_rolleyes]
Stay well and happy and please consider coming to the next DS Fest!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MR. FRID! [cheer] [occasion13] [occasion15] [cheer]
I think the only way Frid would come to another Fest is if Pierson held it in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada! And even then I don't think he'd come.

Aww... Too bad. [santa_undecided] If I could meet him, I would go THERE in a heartbeat! [santa_wink]

Sally, in all of Jonathan's Q&As between 1998-2001 when he did some charity performances, he said that he had not ruled out going to another fest. I tend to go with what an individual says about his own druthers opposed to outside speculation. He's certainly never said to me he was never going to another festival ever.
Wow! That's GREAT Nancy! [santa_grin] I sure do hope he comes next year! [santa_smiley] The highlight of the last Fest was Jonathan's phone call - and if I didn't loan my cell phone charger to Jim Pierson, it may not have happened at all! [santa_wink]
LOVE the photo of "bedhead Barnabas" (oh, I know I'm bad) and in a pink bathrobe--swanky!
Glad to hear the old dear is doing well and keeping the flag flying at 82!!
Added 12/04/2006--Hey-Why did the banner cut itself in half? It was fine the first day--is it the ghost of one of the Leviathans? [santa_undecided]
Later: Now it's working again...(begin the Dark Shadows Theme--ooooo-weeee-ooooo)

FRID![/color][/i][/b] [cheer] [occasion13] [occasion15] [cheer][/move]I hasten to respond that "keep the flag flying" means nothing at all salacious or indelicate.
I hasten to respond that "keep the flag flying" means nothing at all salacious or indelicate. It simply means to keep the ship in sail, keep the fort firm, keep on ... keeping on, as some radio pundit or other used to say.
Clear?
