Subject: FK Lafayette Party
A very nice time was had by all at the little Forever Knight party held in
Lafayette, Indiana (Purduetown, USA) in Cousin Wendy's cozy little bedroom
with its plethora of VCRs and cool posters. No quote list, nothing really
noteworthy, just a good time with faction food (I'd never heard of faction
food before - is it just me?) and lots of tape watching. I was pleased to be
able to meet Lindy Cooksey and Kim Bjarkman who will be joining the
MidKnighters carpool with me for the Toronto/Shrew trip!
We did come up with a new recipe that we'd like to share!
I supplied the group with my own version of Blood/Blood Lite, and Cousin
Wendy added an ingredient to the latter, coming up with...
BLOOD SURPRISE
2 cups cranberry juice cocktail
1 cup orange juice
1/2 cup grape juice
1 cup ginger ale
Splash of Ribena added at the last
DO NOT SHAKE OR STIR
(Note, this is based on my personal preferences for the amounts of
ingredients.)
The Surprise comes in because the Ribena, being so much denser, sinks to the
bottom. By the time you reach the bottom of your glass, especially if you
have the non-Lite version with vodka instead of ginger ale, you've forgotten
about the Ribena, so the last swallow comes as quite a surprise!
Thanks again, Wendy, for a nice get-together!

Subject: Re: A perfect Nick/Nat song
Okay, here are the lyrics to "I Want To Come Over" -- read them with Nick &
Nat in mind:
I know you're home / You left your light on / You know I'm here / The night
is thin / I know you're alone / I watched the car leave / Your lover is
gone / Let me in / Open your back door / I just need to touch you once more
/ I want to come over / To hell with the consequence / You told me you love
me / That's all I believe / I want to come over / It's a need I can't
explain / To see you again / I want to come over / I know your friend /
You told her about me / She filled you with fear / Some kind of sin / How
can you turn / Denying the fire / Lover I burn / Let me in /I know you're
confused / I know that you're shaken / You think we'll be lost once we
begin / I know you're weak / I know that you want me /Lover don't speak /
Let me in

I agree. I recently become a fan of Quantum Leap because of the
reruns on the Sci-Fi Channel, and of Highlander because of the
daily reruns on USA. I know it will be a hardship on those fans
who don't have Sci-Fi, but I think that overall it will add more
fans to the fold.

Hello all,
Just wanted to drop a quick note and let everyone (who's interested) that I

me? Probably)
This next part is for the HL and FK lists.
Anyway, since the WAR has started on HLFIC, I'm going to have
precious little time to for the regular list, so for the next couple of weeks
I'm gonna be NOMAIL on both HL and FK. (You, put down that party horn!! :) )

Incidentally, I am EXTREMELY SORRY for the personal post last

Hi all!
Apparently,the Wizard's wagon has told several of the people calling to
place orders or inquire about stickers, different stories. It seems that
they are more unorganized than we realized. So I decided to call Pegasus
Publishing(they make the stickers) Guess what! they have a website! Complete
with listings of all stickers, ordering info, etc. You will find them here:

You know you've been watching too much FK when......
I'm reading a message about someone wanting the Pens to pick up Marty
McSorley, on the Pittsburgh Penguins mailing list. In the message someone
mentions that, "He would add whips, chains and FANGS, to the team. " All I
can think is, "who brought Marty accross? It must be that LaCroix dude."
(Either that or someone's getting their mailing lists mixed up :D)
After our senior celebration dinner (for graduating seniors), a bunch of
friends and I wanted to go to Chauncy's (club in Pittsburgh) disco night. I
complain about bars not being open past 2am and that, "at 2am I'm just
getting started." My mom says, "Gee Miss, why don't you just become a Vampire?"

Subject: YKYB...
You know you've been doing this FK thing for 'way too long when...
...you're visiting the branch of the family that you haven't seen in over
twelve years even though they live less than five hours away, and the son
of your aunt comes to pick you up at the Metro Station, and greets you with
a hearty, "Hi, Cousin Jamie!" and you open your mouth to begin explaining
that you're really not a Cousin anymore and that even though LaCroix is
quite an interesting character, Natpack/Mercdom is far superior to
Cousinhood anyway... when you realize that he's not going to have the
slightest idea what you're talking about, and that there IS a definition of
"cousin" that has nothing to do with FK, and that the Internet has
completely warped the few brain cells you've got left.
My aunt loves my fanfic, though. Has never seen the show, but LOVES my
fanfic. Who knew?
Btw, Zillah's party in VA was just terrific; the quote list will be posted
shortly (most of it is suitable for a PG-rated list).
Most frightening of all: I seem to be developing a taste for Ribena.

I was hoping some kind soul could post the News Group Address. While
I like the list...I can't keep sifting through, and I miss more than I read.
Liked the thread on faction names, and episodes that never were.

The first two times I tried to answer the "season finale" question,
I used Prodigy to access it and got a blank page. I then tried it via
AOL, and had no problem. So if anyone out there ran into difficulties,
I'd recommend you try it using something else. If you don't have an AOL
account (and I won't for very much longer), maybe you know someone who
does who will let you use their's to reach the page. Then you can just
put your regular e-mail address in. Just a thought...

The Affiliation Pin Page has links to Affiliation pages and shows the

Subject: Re: LIST RULES: Nevermores (HF)
It's been brought to my attention that the list of episodes I posted as
being under spoiler protection is quite probably wrong.
This is what happens when you have an assistant listowner with a memory
dysfunction trying to think clearly after four hours' sleep on a Greyhound
bus answering e-mail on a foreign AOL setup whilst a dog slobbers all over
her hands, asking for episode titles from someone in even worse shape than
she is. A disorienting situation at best (although the company was
superb!) made more severe by the fact that I am severely
episode-title-impaired... my humblest apologies for any confusion I might
have passed along.
The rule is: if it hasn't been shown as a rerun, it's under spoiler
protection. The best rule of thumb is: if it's a late third-season episode
and you're not sure, post it to FKSPOILR: better safe than sorry.
However: Human Factor is DEFINITELY still spoiler-list material.
This has been a public service announcement: a reminder that nobody is
perfect, least of all me. :-)

Subject: QUESTION AND YKYB...
Hello all,
I have a request/question for help. I am an uncredit carded individual
and I wish to purchase the FK soundtrack. I tried going through a local
music store but that fell through. I had heard that there was an address
that one could send a check to, but is it really safe/wise to send a
check to an strange address. Also, if I did, what would I enclose as an
order form? I'd really appreciate any help that I could get.
Okay, now for the you know you've been bit,
I was watching the t.v. last night while cooking and FT on VH1 suddenly
flashed up the title Nick
Photographer
Knight.
I swear, I almost lost it. Unfortunantly it was not the real Nick, but I
got a good laugh out of it anyway. Wouldn't he be an interesting
photographer. "Let's show a little more neck there darling, we want them
to be happy now don't we?" Sorry, I couldn't resist. I'll shut up and

Subject: Response to Werewolf knockoff
I am going to try to send this again, 'cause I'm not sure it made it the
first time. If it's a re-post, I apologize.
>Today [March12], an article in "USA Today" on shows for the fall lineup:
>X Files knockoffs are out there...
>CBS' "I,Werewolf" spotlights a man who fights crime during the full moon.
I think we should respond to "USA Today" about this.
This is the letter I sent:
The pilot television show, "I, Werewolf", about a man who fights
crime during the full moon, was reported in "USA Today" as a knockoff
of "The X-Files". It sounds more like a knockoff of "Forever Knight".
"Forever Knight" is about a detective in Toronto, Nick Knight, who
is a vampire seeking redemption. "Forever Knight" is a wonderful show.
It's artistic, entertaining, and thought-provoking. Unfortunately, it
never received the attention or critical acclaim it deserved.
I wasn't sure whether I should send this to USA Today's Letters to the
Editor column, or whether I should send it to the person who wrote the
article. I finally decided to send it to both.
No one is going to pay attention to one letter, but if the Letters to the
Editor's column receives 20 or 100 letters on the same subject, there's a
good chance they'll publish one. And if someone at the newspaper receives
lots of letters about "Forever Knight", perhaps someone will think it's a
good idea to follow-up and find out more about the show. So, please write!
We might get some response in this case, because we'll be commenting on
something they already wrote about.
I don't think we want to focus on fan efforts to save the show for these
letters. I think we want to focus on what makes "Forever Knight" such a
special show.

Convince me one way or the other. Why are Nick and Nat soul mates, why
should they be together?----hmmm good question!!!
Well, other than the fact that I, hopeless romantic that I am, think that
anyone who falls in love should have the opportunity to be together I think
there are several threads that hold them together.
1) They both have demons in their past which affect the way they operate today.
It's very difficult for someone who doesn't share this kind of
thing to understand and deal with it.
2) They both have a strong need to do good, to help and make things better.
We know Nick's reasons, I'm not sure we know Nat's for
sure, but they both share that basic instinct.
3) They are both stubborn and sometimes plow into things without totally
thinking them thru-just because they feel it will ultimately help.
4) They love each other.
5) They fit real nice.

Bonnela asked: "Now, my question is, if Nick had been the mortal one who was
fatally
wounded, would he have wanted Janette to bring him back across? If he said
'no', would he have been upset if she did it anyway?"
Ofcourse she would have brought him across and oh yea he'd be pretty pissed
about it. But I think the idea could be, "well you found mortality once you can
find it again!!"

Subject: Just a little venting
Hello everybody!
I know this probably seems a bit stupid to be posting this, but I
never claimed to be a genius.
I was reading through my digests from yesterday when I came
across two messages which just plain irked me. In fact, I almost uttered
a bewildered "What?!?" in the middle of archaeology (pay attention? how
do you do that?). One post related to sigs. Besides insinuating that
college kids don't change their underwear (what do you think we are?), it
also suggested changing sigs often. I thought the whole purpose of a sig
was to have something recognizable after your name every time. I agree
that they shouldn't be like 10 lines or something, but I think the limit
is like 4 anyway, so why not? And as a self-confessed smiley face addict,
I don't see anything wrong with that either...oh excuse me, maybe we're not
supposed to be friendly on this impersonal information superhighway.
Call me old-fashioned.
The other was about pins for Cousins, which I won't get into
because I'm not a Cousin anyway. I'll just say that it seemed a bit brutal.
Maybe I just don't have an adequate sense of humor, but it seemed
like these were rather lofty, "I disapprove of all you lower life-forms"
posts. As far as I know, we're all friends and equals here. Thanks for
letting me vent, I really needed to get it out of my system.
ObFK-I'm going to try to bring several people on my
dorm hall across by (hopefully) getting them to watch "Dark Knight" as a
part of our bi-weekly movie night. Wish me luck that they won't think
I'm insane. Of course, I found out this weekend that I actually like
Ribena (the liquid equivalent of Giant Pixy Stix), so my sanity may
already be gone.

Stupid question, made more stupid by the fact that I'm somewhat studying

Nick's dead. Nat's a coroner. Sounds good to me! :)

Lisa,
The Cousins live for venting such as this. They enjoy the fiction of
being superior lifeforms <;p>--who are we to worry about it. Let them
enjoy it. BTW, I do not care if you wear or do not wear underwear.

Subject: How To Pass The Time When You're Bored
Okay, here's further evidence that I have no life whatsoever. Last night,
whn I was getting no further e-mail and my server was being a pain anyway, I
decided to do something oddly me, with an FK basis. Taking the soundtrack
to the original _Highlander_ movie("A Kind of Magic", Queen), I decided who
each song would go to. In other words, I spent 50 minutes getting this:
Track 1: "One Vision": Nick. If it hadn't been quite as upbeat, though,
I'd say Uncle.
Track 2: "A Kind of Magic": Nick.
Track 3: "One Year of Love": Nick&Nat, as the title implies.
Track 4: "Pain is So Close to Pleasure": Toughie here. The words are 100%
Nightcrawler, but the music is more Tracy&Vachon, maybe a teenage Don&Myra.
Track 5: "Friends Will Be Friends": Nat, with the occasional dash of Janette.
Track 6: "Who Wants to Live Forever?": Nick&Nat. Note: Even if you hate
Queen, get the album only for this song. It is *phenomenal*.
Track 7: "Gimme the Prize": LaCroix, in a violent mood.
Track 8: "Don't Lose your Head": LaCroix vs. Nick. The 800-year Battle
theme song.
Track 9: "Princes of the Universe": Uncle's view on vampyrism absolute.
Arrogant, powerful, and well-justified on both counts. Good, GOOD song.
Track 10 (CD(?) bonuses from here on): "Forever": Nick&Nat. This is a
(somewhat altered) instrumental of "Who Wants to Live Forever?". Much
darker than the original (I swear, it is), but still with the tinge of hope.
Track 11: "One Vision (extended version)": Again, Nick.
Hmmmmm... album challenge, anyone?
