Well, not that it would make any difference in this case, but the closing color tag is missing a forward slash.

Current Talk '03 II / Re:Tom and Chris: Twins Or Not
« on: November 25, 2003, 03:27:53 AM »
In ep #564, Joe is visiting Tom's grave, and the headstone reads:

Thomas Jennings 1944 - 1968

In ep #676 which taped/aired in January, 1969, Chris tells Barnabas that his first transformation occurred right after his 21st birthday, 7 years before.

These events indicate that Chris is older than Tom by a few years.

Nancybe sends this from the newest issue of TV Guide:



Cheers - to another resurrection of the classic ghost opera Dark Shadows. WB reportedly is close to a deal with Shadows producer Dan Curtis for a new version of the 1960s soap. Welcome back, Barnabas.

Do we not provide an emoticon for an occasional outburst and rant on this board?

And even better, just surround your text with this

and the posted rant will look like this--

Although Desmond was not on trial, so he couldn't really be said to be incriminating himself.

I think a simple google search on "self-incrimination" would provide you with evidence to the contrary.

Quote
It was more like an impromptu hearing -- interrupting Quentin's trial -- to supposedly see if there was a conflict of interest with Desmond representing Quentin.

No, he was called as a witness for the State to provide evidence that Quentin was possessed.  As a result of his testimony he was arrested and charged with witchcraft.

Quote
but how many TV trials or even movies are all that accurate -- or even realistic -- when it comes to trial scenes?   ::)

My point was that no effort was made here to be consistent.  Realism and accuracy went out the window when this became a witchcraft trial.

8092
Agree that the courtroom scenes are often gripping, but I do wonder on what planet any judge would allow the defendant's attorney to be called to the stand as a witness for the prosecution?  Highly improbable, and likely grounds for a big fat mistrial.

What bothers me is that this particular court seems to pick and choose which civil rights they'll respect.  For example, they honor Quentin's Sixth Amendment right to be represented by counsel, but then they defy the Fifth Amendment by forcing Desmond to provide testimony that ultimately incriminates himself.  So does this court operate according to the US Constitution or not?  It's just a big jumbled mess to me.

Vlad.....see picture on calendar!!!! Too Funny!
Picture?   ???   Did I miss it?   :(

No, you didn't miss it.  Click "calendar" in the horizontal menu at the top or bottom.  Patti is referring to the current (November) calendar page.

Maybe I need glasses.   :(

On the other hand, during the last few weeks, the font on this site has gotten really tiny.  It's about half the size it used to be and it's very hard to read.   :(

The purpose of the messages in red announcing the new forum fonts available on Testing 1, 2, 3 is that the forum's default font was changed on November 5th.  Look for "!! Forum Fonts !!" on page 1 of the Testing board.  It also explains that if you're unable to dl the fonts you can change the text size in your browser.

The topic is now locked, I'm asking that everyone please reread the forum guideline regarding netiquette, and the personal conflict must be taken off the forums.  Thank you.

I don't know who wrote that FAQ, but whomever it was did a superb job.

The editors are Roy-Alan Hansen and, as wes said, our own mrjuggins.  The names of the individual contributors and all other sources used can be found in the FAQ section of the DS FAQ. ;)
