Subject: The Pod People from last night...apologizies
After logging on this morning and reading our collective wierdness from
last night, one of my favorite authors Ms. Carrie Krumtum asked:
> Okay, Dotti, Sandra, Micheal, Cal, Jamie, Alora, Apache, Lisa, Crystal, (did
> I miss anyone)--all of you, did any of you actually watch the ep last noc?
Actually Carrie (and everyone else who is now being forced to sift
through last night's....well, whatever you want to call it) I did, and
since Jamie disappeared from the meyhem around 2:30am too, I suspect she
did also.
Nah, *I* could never miss an ep (no matter *how many* times I've seen it)
in which Nat and LC come face-to-face...and then there's always that
*really* cute (oh dear, I'm about to sound like a Knightie) look on
Nick's face when he tells Vachon to "give me your arm"...and I love,
love, love, *love* Vachon's "see you in Hell, Sailor" at the end.
And I *really* love the fact that 'Fever' is now off spoiler protection so
I can *finally* change my sig...
ObFK (yes, see the Pod People are gone and I *do* have a FK-related
question!)...So now that 'Fever' has *finally* been rerun in
syndication, does that mean that DoN, GVP, AA & FI are going to be next?
Or are they going to continue to re-rerun the middle part of the season?
Fianlly....
So to all, my humblest apologies for my part in our collective mental
melt-down last night, what can I say? I guess I'll tell my dad not to
send me anymore wine from home....but ya'll sure did miss an interesting
evening. :-)

Ah, you ALSO get Channel 55 Riverhead! :-) An' we get it again tonight, on
Fox...
I am still trying to figure out what happened. One little inquiry, of,
"gee, where is everyone?" and the list just exploded with silliness. And
I, who ought to have known better, stripped off the heavy robes of
listownerly responsibility and frolicked in the moonlight with y'all.
(Even Goddesses get one day off every so often, right?)
I guess we've discovered a corollary to 'nature abhors a vacuum': An Empty
List Inviteth Mischief...
It occurs to me that the NEXT time we do this, we oughta take it to IRC or
something. How many of last night's crowd gets IRC? No, don't post it to
the list; private e-mail me. We have done enough damage to the psuvm
hamsters for one night. <g>
An' now, we will get the cascade of followup posts: "What in the world
HAPPENED last night, anyway?"
Man oh man, do I feel sorry for the hamsters.

Although, according to my Cadillac books, neither has that great of trunk

than most of the modern trunk space.

I've heard them say a couple of times that the shift starts at 9pm (Black
Buddha for one.) Assuming it's an 8 hour shift, that makes 5am the time to
get off. Of course, in midsummer, there aren't 8 hours without the sun.
Maybe he goes on vacation then? Or has Nat drive the caddy home for him,
with him in the trunk.

Wicked Cousin Tippi returns! That's right. I've been gone for a

personal probs that prompted me to leave have been cleared up, but
even if they hadn't, I'd still miss the list! Ahh, it's good to be
back!
Just a quick note of thanks to people who let me use their Eternal

Subject: Clear Lake Quote List (long)
Got back a few hours ago from the FK party we had in Clear Lake in honor
of Cousin Cherri's visit. Along the way, I got carded for buying Ribena
(Me: "It's not alcoholic." Clerk: "It looks like it." Me: "I'm 23. But
thank you."). Pizza was consumed, socks were thrown (muahaha), lewd and
lascivious comments were made. You can probably figure out which ones
were mine...
In attendance were: Wicked Cousin Tippi, Cousin Sukhmet, Cousin Shannon,
Sharon (are you a Cousin, Sharon?), Cousin Blondie, Cousin Mary, her son
Shawn, Cousin Cherri, Monique (a Knightie), and a big pink fuzzy body
part which shall go unnamed...
Without further ado...

Alright ladies, those of you going to the Gerthering - I want that question
answered. Did Ger use a stunt chest?? Actually, looking at it, and looking
at the quick shot we get in FI and the bits we see in the Canadian version
(Oh, shoot the one where he's posing with the girl) and in ND, it looks
about the same. I would wonder if suddenly there were Fabio like pecs - but
no, it looks about the same.

Ah, good morning troops! At least I think it's morning - Lauren decided to
have a bout of food poisoning right after I signed off this morning - I
think I had at least an hour of sleep. Kept dreaming of rehearsing TTOS
with Ger - man, I'm definitely thinking about this too much. I also had this
vision of being in the middle of a circle of people throwing bricks at me -
I can't imagine why I'd have that kind of thought in my head, can you??!!

I second Lillian here. While it may have been fun for the
participants, those of us who actually had to sift through and
delete the aftermath while paying ungodly rates for list mail are
not amused. Why didn't someone think of creating a miniature mail
loop and taking it off list?
Lillian continued:

>I just may be the first one to complain onlist.
Well, again, I'm not humor impaired either, as the people I
correspond with off-list can attest, but after the 50th post about
the color of crickets, the size of Nick's feet, and various other
*stuff* (being very polite here) and still having another 120 or so
left, I was way past feeling humorous.
This is, of course, not meant as a flame towards any of the
participants, simply a reminder that there are several hundred
other people out here and some of them pay by the line. I'm sure
that they are going to be *very happy* when they get their mail
today.

And yes, I am annoyed after having had to spend more than 2 hours
separating out actual list mail.

I'll back you up, Lil. After waking up to over 120 messages, *most* of
which were off topic, I say the same thing. The list being quiet is a
*good* thing for some people, it gives them a chance to catch up on tons
of mail they had from before.

Y'all may have been having fun, but those list members who pay by the line
or who pay by the minute for on-line time won't be particularly amused by
the deluge of chitter chatter.
Isn't that what private e-mail is for?
Oh, and by the way, I have a great sense of humour too. I just am not
particularly in the mood to wade through 200-odd posts this morning after my
ISP was down for the last while.

Yea, according to the list I have DoN is next, but then the four new eps
come in and after Last Knight airs GVP airs again followed by HF, AA and FI.
So we got a while to wait, but by that time we'll be into those last eps so
I don't think we'll notice.

Subject: LIST: We were BAD. We were so BAD.
Yes, we were bad. All of us who were up and posting last night. (Two
HUNDRED??? No wonder my mailbox doesn't work.)
And no, this shouldn't happen. Posting, yeah, sure, but not off-topic, for
the same reasons of not-wasting-bandwidth and people-paying-for-e-mail that
I always state, every time I remind people of list rules...
The fact that I myself was a willing participant in the madness doesn't
change the fact that it was a BAD thing. And no, it should NOT happen
again. Not on-list, anyhow.
So: to those of you who are now dealing with the aftermath of the
spam-a-thon last night, I apologize; and I ask that we NOT continue the
madness into today, which will only move the problem into the NEXT set of
digests, and make things really really obnoxious for people who won't be
checking their mail until Monday.
S'okay? Thanks.

that kind of thing. I can't really say what happened this morning, other
than the ball started rolling and it got out of hand. Also, when you're
constantly sending and receiving you don't notice how many messages are
actually going on. It certainly didn't seem like the huge numbers you're
saying it is.
And, I guess we thought it was fun and that everyone might get a giggle out
of something a little humorous - that even though didn't have every single
line about FK - there was that thread - and the Nick bashing - well - it was
Nick after all.
However, having left AOL because of the exhorbitant prices I know of what
you speak when you have to pay per line, and we should have thought about
that, but it was just one of those things that just sort of got out of hand.
Next time we feel that urge coming on, we'll shift it to a private loop and
not annoy you all.
Again, my abject apologies...

Try the wonderful land of Newfoundland, a vamp must have to be in

Subject: Addicts
(a) List addicts: After reading the FORKNI-L digests that recently fell
into my mailbox, I'd just like to suggest that *no one*, *ever* post
another message with the subject line: "Quiet, ain't it?" or anything to
that effect. If the list is quiet, think of it as a mini-vacation.
Saying that the list is quiet is like putting a glass of whiskey in front
of an alcoholic or some heroin in front of a junkie. ;^) (Well, it *was*
a lot of fun reading this stuff about vampire crickets, microwaves, and
marriage proposals, but it was definitely a *guilty* pleasure....) <g>
(b) Blood addicts: Speaking of addictions, someone said something about
Nick having an eating disorder. I've noticed that he doesn't feed when
he's *hungry*, he feeds when he's *upset* -- such as after a disturbing
dream, after a guilt trip, after getting a bit too close to chomping on a
mortal's neck.... Isn't eating for emotional reasons rather than because
you're physically hungry one of the signs of an eating disorder??
BTW, on an unrelated topic (I think someday I might become famous for my
unrelated BTW comments stuck at the end of my messages), I've noticed a
disturbing trend lately that whenever people quote me, they feel obliged
to attribute the quote to "Allison Percy, a perky Knightie" rather than
simply to "Allison." Am I being picked on here? (Clewless, aren't I??)
And in case you were wondering, my last name is *not* pronounced with a
hard "c". <g>

Are you nuts? It was "Fever?" Not only did I watch, I availed
myself of the opportunity to make a first-gen copy. Not only did I
watch, I imagined as hard as I could that I actually got to see the scene
Gillian Horvath told us were snipped: Vachon crashing into Nick's loft
through a window, smoking, and saying shamefacedly, "I didn't realize the
sun was still up... I'll pay for the damage;" and Vachon telling Tracy,
"they used to put seeds on our graves, you know.. they thought the
vampire would come back and start counting the seeds and forget dawn was
coming... 'one million VUN, one million TWO.. pffffft!"
In short, yes. ;-)

Absolutely - it's a way to make yourself feel better immediately - which
then only makes you feel twice as guilty because you did the one thing
you're trying to stop doing. Believe, me I know about that eating circle,
which is probably one of the reasons I sympathize with Nick so much and get
a little annoyed when Nat says things like "Just stop drinking the blood" or
whatever. He can't do that anymore than I could "just stop eating" at the
time I was having the most problems. It's something that has to be worked
on - and unfortunately the only time it really worked was FTB and he hasn't
gone back to that since it went so badly for him. Also, for him, it's still
part of what's keeping him alive, food isn't enough (remember his doubling
over in NiQ) it's not really a total choice for him.

What in the hell is a cricket? <vbg> I'm from Alaska, we don't have

I for one am sorry for myself that I don't have my own
computer. Just the thought that I could've been in on this (as I am
always up till all hours on Saturday nights) made me wish harder and
harder for the summer and my OWN computer to come. :)
Boy am I glad that I decided to get my butt to a lab to check
this today. This would have been WAY too strange for a Monday morning!
