Hi Again Folks :>)

Gosh, I am so flattered.......my first post in months and you guys are
welcoming me back with such fun (I *mean* that!) responses!

This morning I said:

> > I recently watched **all** of FK, backwards

And Tim responded:

>  Mmm.
>  Did you find any secret messages?
>  How LaCroix survived being staked and set on fire?

Nope, still haven't figured that out!  Though I do recall LC saying something
like "Did you really think you had killed me Nicholas?  <insert LC low
growl-chuckle> I am far too old and powerful.............."

>  How the Enforcers know that someone is "breaking the Code" and
>  why anyone human (Nat, Tracy?) is still standing

On the first part, sure, LaCroix flies around and snitches on everybody <g>
don't get me wrong here, I **love** LC!  Howzacom Nat and Tracy didn't get
nabbed was not revealed to me in my backwards viewing.

>  Why did Cadillac paint cars that color?

I'd have to rate that mystery way up there with what I call sock and pajama
Heaven <LOL>...............we'll **never** know :>D

>  Perhaps we've been searching for meanings incorrectly, by
>  watching the tapes forward.  The real answers are in the reverse?

Now see here <GGG> I watched them in reverse order, (concluding with Rick
Springfield in "Nick Knight") no "Paul is dead" Beatles messages....hadn't
thought of watching them in *true* reverse order, though I suppose it could
be done with a real swell VCR on backwards slo-mo :)

And then Teri said (repying to Tim)...

>>And here I was wondering how she got anything out of watching TV turned
around with her back to it! Billie Lee, don't ya just HATE smarty-britches
like us?? ;)

LOL, to tell you the truth, I did a little bit of that!!

>>~Teri, wishing I had time to watch all of FK, forwards or backwards! ;)

Yes, well, I do have the option of working at home sometimes, and that's how
I managed it.......writing Director of Nurses' notes and such and watching FK
at the same time!  Makes working at home lots more fun.

Then Tim answered Teri.........

>>I hadn't thought of that.
        Perhaps, I am all wet.

Nope, Tim, like I said, I did "watch" some of it with my back turned :)

>>      She may have been engaged in deeply spiritual quest to test her
knowledge of FK.  Yah know, sitting with her back to the TV, committed to
delivering each line of dialogue (complete with facial expression) 1 second
before it is delivered by the actors. Sort of as a test of faith and
committment to FK.

OK, Tim, just **how** did you get in my house and know what I was doing
without me knowing it?? <LOL>

>>Perhaps the furthermost extension of YKYBWTMFK?

YES, that's it exactly!!

And then Grace said: <<Silly me.  I thought she watched it through a mirror.
What was _I_ thinking?!!>>

OK, now I am convinced you guys are hanging out in my back yard or
something!!!!!!

And Eve said: <<That would be fun to do with Curiouser and Curiouser, Carroll
references and all... "Beware the Jabberwock, my son..." ;)>>

:>D :>D, that's a good one, Eve (can you tell I am trying not to use up all
my posts for the day one at a time?)

On to other things now. Portia <waves!!> asked about GWD on Adrian Paul's new
series "Tracker" (Which, I do believe, is Canadian, surprise, surprise, I
love Canadian TV!!). Thus far, Ger is reportedly scheduled to appear in 6
episodes.  He (GWD) plays a Villian.  Adrian is an Alien Bounty Hunter from
another planet who has come to Earth to track down the criminals from his
planet who have escaped to Earth.  I am not super clear on this part, but I
get the impression that Ger is one of Adrian's more elusive escapees.

Here, in the Silicon Valley/San Francisco area of California, Tracker is
debuting on UPN (here it is channel 44 or cable channel 12) on October 20th
at 5:00 pm Pacific Time.  I think you have to join the Yahoo group to view
this page, but if you go to <A
HREF="http://groups.yahoo.com/group/adrianpaul_tracker/database?method=reportR
ows&tbl=3&sortBy=1&sortDir=down&start_at=91&query=">
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/adrianpaul_tracker/database?method=reportRows&tb
l=3&sortBy=1&sortDir=down&start_at=91&query=</A>

................................(you may not need that entire line, I've no
idea <g>) it gives the stations, times, dates, etc. for cities in
alphabetical order (sorta).  It's wild, some places it's on Fox, others WB,
still others CBS and so on.

The "Official" Tracker page is at <A HREF="http://www.trackertv.com/">
http://www.trackertv.com/</A> and you don't have to join anything to go
*there.*  It's a pretty nifty home page, and it tells the show's premise far
more eloquently than I did.

I got all this info because I am on the Highlander List, and folks started
talking about Adrian's new show........so the Yahoo group was created.  Some
real neat folks started gathering info about when and where it was on, etc.
I really am looking forward to seeing Ger and Adrian in the same show for
more than one episode; i.e.: Highlander ep #25 (Season 2, and I am sure you
all already know this.....) where Ger is an Immortal with MPD (Multiple
Personality Disorder), the name of which has since been changed in the Psych
world to DID (Dissociative Identity Disoder), which I am just certain you
were all *dying* to know!

OK, so I just know __somebody__ out there has "Roar....." Tell you what, I
hereby pledge to make (in trade for Roar <g>) super duper copies of "Tracker"
eps with Ger and Adrian if FK, Fk Alumni, Highlander, Highlander Alumni,
Buffy, Angel, etc. don't interest you, or if Tracker won't be shown in your
area :>)

Thanks for all the great responses........it has been tough looking after my
nurses and clients/patients in the wake of September 11, plus I've got a
bunch of yicky jazz going on (so what else is new <g>)........you really
cheered me up!!

Forever Yours,

Billie-Lee

Subject: Now, this is more like it!

Just want to tell you all that I love seeing all of these posts!  Having been
gone a while, and then coming back to such an eerily silent list, I was
starting to think the FK momentum might have died down while I was gone!  (I
know -- blasphemous thoughts! "g")  Glad to see we're still keeping the
"Knight" alive. "g"

Subject: How do the Enforcers know?

That's one of those villainous CBS cuts. Do I gather SciFi did it too? There's a
scene in the original, full-length Canadian versions where we see the night
technician from Tawny's station go outside after she refuses to give up the
footage and insists on airing it. He turns out to be a vampire. He flies off,
presumably to call in the Enforcers.

In the flashback, I always assumed LC called them.

No, Sci-fi did have the scene with the vampire, Danny, vamping out and then
flying off to go tattle-tale on poor Tawny.

Hey Billie-Lee!

Glad to see you're back! Watching FK backwards sounds quite fun, whatever
way it may be. :) I've done a little bit of that myself. I've watched some
movie-clips backwards, slow motion (giving the male vamps demon like
voices), and in fast motion (they actually sound like chip-munks there).
It's really funny. I used one of my AVI Screensavers to do that. If anyone
is feeling bored and wants to do that with their own clips, or even a whole
downloaded episode, you can download this program off the "Misc Section" on
my site.

Again, welcome back!
