We have a mascot here, Betsy. We call him 'Nuthead', at times.

//It was very nice. Freddie didn't mention BtVS, but was very sweet about how talented his wife was in general. Sarah did mention the show, with a very sincere looking smile on her face, saying something about how she was 18 when it started and now she was a 26 year old married woman - so she needed to move on. She said she wanted to start a family someday (but not tomorrow). She was very funny and charming throughout the interview - very relaxed and seemed happy. Zero bitterness was on display. // I'll give Sarah this, if there was a lot of crap going on backstage, she's always been very professional in her interviews, focusing on the positive. Probably didn't think that if there was stuff there, that it was the fans' business, which to a degree, I agree with. I'm wondering how much of an earful Freddie got for saying all that stuff, or possibly, thank-you sex for being the bad guy so she didn't have to be. David Crenshaw

//My apologies. I saw no spoilers in #395 and at this point it isn't good to pursue the topic at all for obvious reasons. So again, sorry for the mistake. // Alexandra, I read #395, and although it did touch mighty close to something that's been released as a potential spoiler (need me to vague that up for you?), it read like poorly-worded speculation to me. Just a lucky author who guessed the truth. But then, put a monkey in front of a typewriter and he'll bang out a word every once in a while. And play enough times, even you can win the lottery.

Dave said: "since Dracula seems like such an obvious choice, I thought I would voice my dislike of the original work. " (I'm getting bored with putting 'so and so said' - I hate rules.'Rebel, rebel..') I read Dracula when I was 12 or 13 years old. My best friend Connie and I bought the paperback together and (I think I told this story, but hey...) I would keep it one night and read a certain number of chapters and give the book to her the next day at school, she'd take it home and read the same number of chapters, we were supposed to finish it together but I cheated because I couldn't wait, and then had to try to remember only to talk about the chapters I was SUPPOSED to have read...so I guess I've been a spoiler ho from way back. But I digress. I loved the book - trace my vampire love to that book. But, it was pretty intense for a 13 year old, so that's probably why. I tried to re-read it this past year and thought it pretty slow going and the diary aspect was annoying this time, as you said, (sorta) Dave.

Interesting thoughts, Vlad the Impaler! I was told to write and ask you to send me a profile form. So please send me a profile form at: betsyAB@comcast.net Thank you. I think Spike will be the vampire with a soul that becomes human and NOT Angel. What are your thoughts on that?

"Not all of us, Patti. Some of us actually were working. " That's even more the pits. Except I think you mentioned you like your work.

//"Altho, it would be nice if some of her co-stars took the time to refute it, but maybe it's beneath their notice." True, and it should have been beneath mine, but it was so mean. // A lot of the Hollywood types have gotten to where they don't bother refuting the supermarket tabliods. They've been off the mark so many times as it is, I think Hollywood just hopes now that those of us reading will believe it's as bogus as the story on the facing page about how alien bigfoots impregnated me with Elvis' baby. Can't complain though, at least the photos captured my good side

//I met Patti at the Cleveland convention and I swear she likes the Spike more than I do!// THE Spike? Would that be Spike's spike you like, Patti, or someone else's spike? And I'm curious how Becky was able to gage that your love of the spike was greater than her love of the spike. Do tell. Enquiring minds want to know. David Crenshaw

//A certain party who will be nameless (hi, David!) made in posted an easily mis-read reference to a certain dog that once belonged to Steve Martin. Ask him about what happens if we think someone isn't being tolerant and civil.// Love you too, Diane David Crenshaw

Gee, David. I think I resemble that remark! Poorly-worded?!! Monkey?!! I can never type my opinions here again! My ego is completely crushed... Ok. I'm over it now. Poorly worded indeed

I think Spike will be the vampire with a soul that becomes human and NOT Angel. What are your thoughts on that? " Well...it would be odd in the sense that the prophecy in question has never been mentioned on Buffy, but Joss doesn't mind assuming we know the history of both shows... It would mean Spike would have to do something really horrible and heroic, and DIE, and I don't want him to die, even for a few minutes...and I also want him to keep the vampire nature because it's so cool. A totally human Spike...? I don't know... However...Wes is totally human and he's become totally hot, and James can do hot as a human, I'm quite sure. As you can see, these hardly qualify as 'thoughts', more just rambling ideas popping out of my brain. As usual.

//Maybe a vampire's duster has magical healing properties just like a vampire does. // It must. I mean, little scrapes here and there, sure. The question of how Spike's duster has lasted as long as it has, I can deal. Where Nikki got it from in the first place, tolerable. But there was an episode of Angel (S1 "The Prodigal") where Kate Lockley drove a 4x4 beam through Angel into another vampire, missing Angel's heart but dusting the other vampire, and yet Angel's duster with the big hole in the back was magically mended the following week.

Actually, it wasn't "The Prodigal". It was "Sonambulist". My mistake.
