Come to think of it, I'll kill everyone you ever KNEW!

You do realize that includes her...

Discounting the fact that she's already dead, Angelique did, after all, curse Barn with the words, "You will never be able to love anyone, for whoever loves you will die!" before becoming its 1st victim.  Silly witch!

In that case, we're getting the NY salute but in a new direction.

It certainly isn't the forefinger pointing at us ala Uncle Sam saying "We want you!".

Oh, it really is a forefinger.  It's not a "family board" and though I hadn't thought about it before I'm pretty sure I'd draw the line at an avatar (and smiley too-- yes, I know they're out there) that flips readers off.

MB's old avatar is the Avatar on Port Charles right now.

It was from Buffy, as are at least 3 other avatars in use right now.

Am I close or do I have to strain these eyes some more?

Raineypark's title is actually kinda prophetic.

They've been directed to try again later.

Hi Dawn!

Yes, this is the message they're receiving:

Sorry but registrations are closed for now! Please check back later!

Registrations were closed to new members a couple of weeks ago in an attempt to monitor both bandwidth and any possible actions of our server.  You might not be aware that a while back our server cut us off for a few hours, and we've been trying our best since then to prevent it from happening again-- first by stopping guest traffic and most recently by temporarily cutting off registrations, but despite doing these things the board is busier than ever, wow!  Anyway, we'd very much appreciate if you could let your friends know that this is definitely not a permanent thing, though right now I can't say when registrations will be reopened.  Thanks!

( Sorry, I was unable to get the poll post to cooperate for this query)

No need to apologize, VAM.  Polling is a brand new feature that debuted with the features poll, but as MB explained then, it's not yet available for everyone to use but will be soon.

It's a picture of me kissing David Selby.  

Oh wow!  You weren't kidding about "quality time".

Thank you, Connie.  I didn't realize that what I was asking would be a hassle, and what you did is much appreciated.

Carol, I should've realized you were taping JK's various appearances.  Duh!  (Right about now I could use a smiley that slaps itself upside the head.)...

His Hill Street Blues episode aired yesterday, but it should again in the near future and with Kosmo's help I can let alert you to it a few days in advance.  Johnny is only in one scene but he's great, as always.

My absolute favorite Thayer David appearances are in The Wild Wild West series.  After one character was involved in the theft of a samurai sword, TD was brought back a year later to play a thief that preyed on Mexican villagers (in the guise of Cortez!).  His villains were awesome; it's almost hard to believe this is the same guy that played Ben.

I enjoyed the replies so far and hope they keep coming.  Great question, CD Tate!

I loved it, Connie!  Don't underestimate your abilities as a webmaster (webmistress?).

My computer insists on torturing me by refusing to load one of the pics.  Its caption says "THIS is what I call quality time." Can you pretty please tell what I'm missing?

If you've been meaning to order a copy of her bio on Frid's career, what better day to do it?  Malia's book is no mere listing of JF's various performances-- her illuminating insights into his work on stage and screen make it a fascinating read, and the beautiful presentation and numerous photos are the icing on the [birthday] cake.
