I look up the Malocchio thing (I have the cure, if anyone is interested), and what do I see on the preceding page?

Yes I need a good curse right now .. .what is the Malocchio thing?  My landlords need to be knocked down a peg or two. .

(Lady singing), "There's a man taking away the costumes and the sce-e-e-e-e-nery."
(Lucy):  "I gave him a che-e-e-e-e-e-ck,"
(Lady):  It bou-ou-ou-ou-ou-ounced!"

I keep waiting for Magda to break out in song. .  . ."I was born in the wagon of a travelin' show. . ."

Uhh. . how does a fully lit candleabra get ontop of a coffin, if someone just got in it and no one else is around?  Is that a special vampire skill?

Great questions!!!!

3.  Character most deserving of romance?  Dr. Julia Hoffman.  The closest she came to romance was being victimized by Tom Jennings.  Granted, there are worse fates a person could suffer <lol>, but Julia deserved better (e.g. shacking up with affliction-free Jennings brothers).

 

I agree with John that Julia was deserving of some romance ..surprise? naw?  But I would say the Tom Jennings & Julia moments were highly charged with some eroticism .. .when she'd take off that scarf, her eyes were very very naughty and his tongue. . well, it said it ALL ladies!. . .

I've been dormant for a few weeks. . been contemplating this little questionnaire:

Hmm m m. . . being who and what i am, i have to say many of the selfless things Julia did for that crazy vampire. . . and his few moments of recognition stand out--after Tom snacked on Julia and after she steered the Sheriff to his coffin (under Gerard's influence of course) and Barnabas forgave her.

The concluding chapters to Disparate Destines are now posted on JuliaHoffman.com

tralala. . .whatever shall i do now?

Wow! Steve and Fran. . .that was pretty convoluted. . .and unfortunately it doesn't look like Euphemia had much soap dirt. .like illegitimate children, affairs. .too damn bad.

What exactly was Euphemia's deal?  I've only seen two scenes from OTLT.  .one she is talking with some man about her "estate" which she apparently doesn't have anymore.  And the other scene, where she's in a very haute couture turban, plotting in a hotel room with some young hunk over breakfast. . .i take it he's her son or nephew or something.

But i want to know the complete story arch and how she exited. . .
