Heaven forbid (as it were) on both counts! Barnabas was nothing if not a thoroughgoing rationalist and a true child of the Enlightenment--even if it didn't save him from getting cursed.

@Ruth_A_Buzzi Just watched you on an episode of Dark Shadows. What a fun witchy episode. You made me smile like you always do.

Perhaps he was thinking of Sky Rumson.

Well, I guess someone thinks Perry's a bloodsucker.   Ruth Buzzi?   More than once on FB, I've seen a message on the right side of the page saying that I might know Ruth Buzzi, because a couple FB friends have her as one, and they suggested I FB-befriend her.   I enjoyed their thinking that I might know Ruth Buzzi.   On DS though?

MB-- I think you're onto something with Rumson.   I was going to guess zombies...  The tweet itself make me scratch my head though.   Do they have to be just one short sentence long?   Why do people with so little to say have such a burning desire to say it that they expend money and time on new ways to say it, to as many people as possible?

It must have to do with spontaneity.   There's something worthwhile there, if you're doing it.   Does it serve as a sort of quick sampling of public opinion on something, like DS or the DS film?

I think Ruth Buzzi played a Witch in this outrageous skit that was originally aired on Night Gallery (but for some reason wasn't included in the season 2 DVDs, at least not any of the ones I received from Netflix).  A couple of the short "vignettes" seem to have gone missing, but perhaps they'll be restored if the studio ever releases season 3.  I wonder if this person could have seen this on television and not knowing vintage TV very well, somehow thought they were watching DS?

Mitt Romney does bear a certain resemblance to Sky Rumson--unscrupulous, wooden, shellacked hair, in the pay of Netherworld creatures.

I would hate to see this guy's reaction if they were really talking filthy in that scene.  [hall2_rolleyes]
