Hi Carol, I'm sure you will breeze through that laser surgery.  My Mom just had to have a procedure (in two steps, one for each eye) and although she was very nervous it all went so smoothly, she said afterwards she didn't even know everything happened!

Oooh, wouldn't I just love to get inside Willie Loomis.  Sorry to be crude in this wonderful holiday season, but that man has the most attractive derriere of ALL who live at the Great House.

Yes, it is definitely time for me to re watch my Anchor Bay video of Daughters of Darkness!  (I just learned recently that in certain parts of Europe, vampires and werewolves are supposed to be very active around the time of Yule, so in a way, it could be considered holiday viewing!  Hey, I'll take a nude Johnny Karlen, vintage 1970, over Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer any day!)

Oh Raineypark, I feel your pain.

Since I had no memory of the scene where Magda curses Quentin from the original broadcast, I was really looking forward to it when the MPI tapes came out.  What a letdown!  I know they were writing this stuff by the seat of their pants, but I really thought they could have come up with something at least a little bit dramatic.  

Barnabas' curse scene is one of the classics of the series.  Quentin's curse scene--who remembers it?  At least Grayson's face was etched in acid for that scene, though in her mind she was probably thinking "SAM! I want a REWRITE!"

Gracious Yule regards,  Steve  
PS. Have you seen the Full Moon?  Magick!!!

Oh, I'm so glad you got to see this! It is one of my favorite moments of the entire series.

I was impressed that one of the fans brought this up to GH during the 1973 tape interview.  GH (gasping in disbelief right on cue):  "You mean you could SEE the wig???"

Priceless.

Current Talk '02 II / Re: Important coffin Question
« on: December 18, 2002, 08:56:41 PM »
I've wondered about that too, darling.  I always waited, in vain, for a scene where the coffin lid slowly began opening with one of those marvelously prolonged creaking sound effects, followed abruptly by the crash of the candelabra clattering to the ground.  Cut to close-up of Barn peering over the lid and cursing "Oh, @#$&!"

Could be even funnier than that scene of Queen Victoria dropping the secret treaty at the beginning of "Young Sherlock Holmes" with Gene Wiilder.

Just have to report that the two new chapters continue the delightful zest of this wonderfully refreshing tale.  

I have to say I love Barnabas in Galloping Gourmet mode.  Fettucine Alfredo?  Pancakes, no doubt with fresh sliced fruit?  What's next?  Canapes and stuffed olives?  I'd love to see a scene where a harried Barn on a short fuse is working on party hors d'oeuvres and supervising Willie who's having a hideous time with an olive-pitter.  Oh Lordee.

Just printed out the two new chapters and can't wait to read them!  Something to look forward to for my lunch break.  Thanks for sharing this wonderful tale.

What a wonderful treat!  I must send Dee an email and congratulate her on this truly fabulous site!

Only browsing for 5 minutes and I already learned something new--Grayson did a commercial for VOTE toothpaste around 1968!  

What a treasure trove.

Best wishes,

Steve

Dear Midnite, Mysterioso Darling and Dom,

All 3 of you deserve some kind of special award for keeping this space loony-tunes free!

Your forever admirer,

Gothick

I love it btw that Connie came with an exquisite image for Collinwood at Xmas that happened to be just like how I described my ideal Yuletree DS theme ornament!  I guess great minds work alike ...

Well, dear, I just read the first 4 chapters (all that you've made available thus far, you sly minx!) and I'm riveted.

This is a delight ... both exquisitely suspenseful, yet laced with the kind of sophisticated wit that you'd expect this crew to have developed after their experiences of the 1960's and beyond.

I of course particularly enjoy how you portray Julia, but your way of viewing the boys is a treat, too.  Your descriptions of Quentin, his thoughts, the scruffiness of his life, his laundry, etc. are masterful!

What else can I say but ... MORE! MORE! MORE!

Happy Holidays,

Steve

6327
Hey Connie!  I'm just printing out your story to read over my lunch break, but it looks fab!

Please do continue!  If I have any more specific feedback, I guess I'll send you a private message about it.  Love the dialogue, though!

Congratulations, dear lady!  I am so proud for you.  Perhaps some day I shall consider following in your estimable footsteps and have a chance at freeing myself from Library Assistant hell.

Best of luck with the job search!

And in case I don't get to say it ... Happy Holidays!

Hi Julia,

I believe the episode I mentioned is on MPI tape 149.  If I have time I can double check over the weekend.
