Well I guess Tristar got back some of the "funding" it lost for the last 9
episodes.
You got to figure that SCifi paid a price for being able to air them.
Now are they going to start with Avenging Angel or are they going to start
with JANE DOE which I believe is the first of the 4 original episodes left to
go.
Who do we write to in the SCIFI channel - thanking them for picking up the
show and emploring them to create movies, episodes etc. I read Ger interview
on that user group and he sounded that he wasn't so sorry FK in series form
was going but did memtion a wish to continue in episodic form.

Subject: Re: Cousin's Bar: Official Ingrdient?
Cousin Phoenix suggested Pernod (I think that's the right spelling) or
Absinthe for the most appropriate ingredient in any cousinly drink. Then
she (perhaps foolishly) asked for other faction drinks.
For Knighties, I would recommend straight vodka, as being the closest
thing to cow this mortal has ever seen. The stuff tastes like garbage,
but if you can grit your teeth and get it down, it does the job quite
nicely. And best of all, now matter how much you drink, you won't have
to regret it in the morning.
Toodles!

Subject: The Kindred, Janette's ticked!!!
I've just saw a commercial for some show on Fox called The Kindred:
something I can't remember, and I am fuming!!!! This show is most
definitely about vampires, the commercial had the eyes in it and someone
saying, "I can't feel your heartbeat." (Remind anyone of something said in
FK?) Those (insert curse word here) have the nerve to put Forever Knight on
at 1:30 in the morning... and that's the only time I can watch it so I'm
stuck staying up until then and then sleeping during work, and then make
there own show about vamps? Ohhhhh.... if this show is ANYTHING like Forever
Knight.... I'm going to KILL something!!!! I don't believe this!!!! Grrr!!!
As if you can't tell I am TICKED OFF ROYALY!!! If this show even has the
REMOTEST tinge of FK... I think I'll be forced to burn down FOX!!! Oh, if
anything could make me admit I have cousinly tendencies it is this... and
they will be VERY strong if this show is ANYTHING... alright I said that
already, but I am just so TICKED OFF I could scream!!!! (sorry for making
you all listen to this, but I think everyone on here can understand my
anger!)

Subject: Login name
I just had a terribly frustrating but ultimately amusing experience, and I
thought you'd all like to share it with me (i.e., I want to inflict it upon
you). I wanted to use the Thomas Register on-line. You have to fill out a
"membership" form and then choose a user name and password. Every possible
permutation of my name was already taken as a user name.
>: (
Then I hit upon the perfect user name. It wasn't taken. And now I can log onto
the Thomas Register as -
Cousinjean : )

I've tried this, but it often screws up, and I don't know why. I'm a
psycho grammar purist, and I would *never ever* go against this rule; this
is why, whenever I post something and the speaker bits somehow blur into
the same paragraph, I get really ticked off. This happen to anyone else?
