Dang!  Could her limbs and head be anymore out of proportion to her torso?

I always thought Matel should have made FK dolls.  Ken with the plastic hair
could easily have been converted into a LaCroix doll (the arms would have to
have bent at the elbows, though, so he could cross them imposingly).  The
same goes for Screed -- bald head should be easy to make.  For Nick they
could use the newer fluffy-haired Ken doll -- with stubble you can "shave"
off!  For Vachon, they'd only have to take one of the dark-haired Barbie
heads and pop it onto Biker Ken's body!  LOL!  I think they already have the
doctor outfits (lab coat, scrubs) they could use for Natalie, and probably a
police uniform and casual clothes for Tracy.  And just think of all the
gorgeous evening gowns Janette and Urs could have!

Matel totally missed a golden opportunity!

Subject: ADMIN: Only FK Vampires Are On Topic

Please remember to keep all posts related to FK - that means every message you
send, not just parts of the thread to which you are replying.

General discussions of vampires are off topic.  Only FK vampires are on topic.

Likewise, general discussions of blood are off topic.

Thanks,

Subject: Once A Thief Tonight

Tonight's episode of "Once A Thief" is "Drive, She Said".  Greg Kramer's
character is featured extensively and Nigel Bennett and John Kapelos guest
star.

I can't decide if this episode is my favorite or the one where Greg Kramer and
Julian Riching (Dr. Paul Dana in AMPH) do the take off on "Waiting For Godot".

Are there really as many as 47 actors in Canada?

Speaking of, I owe two list people tapes of this episode. They've already
paid/traded with me for this and I've since lost who they were and their
addresses. I'll recognize the names when they contact me. PLEASE, if you are
one of those two people, e-mail me OFF LIST. I'm as swamped as usual but
really would like to get the tapes out to you in a few weeks.

The caddy is also in the episode. I'm not sure if it is *the* Caddy or not,
but certainly a look-a-like. I asked Greg once, but he was more interested in
the vintage motorcycle he got to drive<g> (Unfortunately, he didn't get to
really let loose on the bike as the owner was just out of camera range -
hahaha)

There's a lot of great bits in it for the FK fans. Not really direct
references, but FK fans are great at reading a lot into the most innocent,
and uninnocent, scenes.

Ooooo. I like that one too, but I think Drive, She Said may be my favorite.
Or the one where we find out Mr. Murphy (Greg's character) is also a minister
- something that goes very well with being an assassin.

Happy Easter for all of us for whom today is Easter, and a happy day to
those for whom it's simply Sunnday.  Let's hope Screed hasn't, as in
Libratsie's wonderful story, waylaid the Easter Bunny! :)

Since McLisa gave it a plug and I'd been meaning to re-read it myself this
weekend, the story can be found at:

I have to be honest and say I'd planned to write a sequel this year, but just
never managed to find the time.
