roger's behavior toward vicki when she first came to collinwood was dreadful.

vicki's behavior is really only "wacky" to those outside the know(like roger)."we" see what vicki sees.every ghost she sees,every time-travel-witch-hunted belief she has is,in fact,true.but one thing that they do to vicki and also to maggie is to "surpress" their memories of traumatic events so that as bits and pieces come back to them they appear ditzy and confused.

Agreed, but every the practical continuty geek that I am, I just don't see how Roger can deny the evidence of his own eyes.  And as for Vicki herself, surely she sill has the dress she was wearing when she returned from 1795 (or is it 96 by that point?)  plus surely she must still have a scar from the GSW.

In order for her to fit in as an employee of the Collins family one would think that it would be necessary for her to have the word "odd" appear somewhere in her resume.  But then she never so much as submitted one or even filled out an application.  She took a job from somebody she had never contacted or even heard of.  That would make her eminently qualified.

To be fair to Vicki though, she was trying to find out about her past.  I mean, she was  raised in a foundling home, her upkeep and education paid for by a mysterious and anonymous benefactor.  Then out of the blue she gets an equally mysterious offer of employment to be companion to a wealthy and reclusive matriarch of a powerful family and governess to a troubled boy.  Frankly, I'd find Vicki a little odd if she hadn't connected the two and taken the job!

From my spotty knowledge of DS, it seems the town of Logansport is mentioned on a number of occasions, the most significant being IIRC Burke's attempts to drive the Collines out of business by buying a competing cannery in Logansport.

Is anything ever learned about Logansport or even ever seen or visited?

Since Collinsport was founded by the Collinses, would it be reasonable to suggest that a similar wealthy family, The Logans, founded Logansport?  Could that be one reason why Burke was so anxious to buy up this Logansport cannery?  Was there perhaps a long standing rivalry or feud between the two familys?

This is all speculation of course, but I am bored at work and this idea has been germinating in my head for a while.  Sort of a shame that the writer's didn't think (or wish to) explore this potential mine of characters and storylines.

FYI, MPI also has the entire Collector's series on sale for $5.98 per cassette.  It would be very tempting if I had about $250 to spare!!

This is one of the first DS sites I found and despite not being updated for almost 2 years now, it remains one of my favorites stops due mainly to it complete episode by episode synopses (always good for a quick DS fix while at work!)

Anyhoo, I was wondering if anyone knows what is going on with the site?  It stays up, but no updates as I said in almost two years.  I even emailed the webmaster to ask if he/she might be interested in selling/turning over the site and go no reply (I guess that translated to a "no, not interested." )

It's a very basic site but one I have a soft spot for.  Thanks!

HEE HEE!  Maybe Charles Delaware Tate painted it!

16 MAGAZINE from October 1969 - featuring the article "Don Briscoe Invites You: 'Come To My Pad'"

A certain Briscoeholic begged, pleaded and cajoled me into making that article one of the first to be posted in the Members' Archive - and who was I not to comply? 

WOOOF!

Pity there are no pics of his "full moon."

Oh, but that's easily explainable - not only did Willie have the hidden talents needed to restore Josette's room (and the rest of the Old House) to its former glory, but he was also an expert manicurist. And no doubt Barnabas had instructed him to keep Maggie's nails as perfectly manicured as the "real" Josette's would have been.

LOL!!!  He could have gone into business for himself "Mr. Willie's Hair and Nail Salon'!!
