"Does it mean having things that buzz inside you and a stick-out handle?" "Real isn't how you are made, " said the Skin Horse. "It's a thing that happens to you. When a child loves you for a long, long time, not just to play with, but REALLY loves you, then you become Real." "Does it hurt?" asked the Rabbit. "Sometimes, " said the Skin Horse, for he was always truthful. "When you are Real you don't mind being hurt." "Does it happen all at once, like being wound up," he asked, "or bit by bit?" "It doesn't happen all at once," said the Skin Horse. "You become. It takes a long time. That's why it doesn't often happen to people who break easily, or have sharp edges, or who have to be carefully kept. Generally, by the time you are Real, most of your hair has been loved off, and your eyes drop out and you get loose in the joints and very shabby. But these things don't matter at all, because once you are Real you can't be ugly, except to people who don't understand." "I suppose you are Real?" said the Rabbit. And then he wished he had not said it, for he thought the Skin Horse might be sensitive. But the Skin Horse only smiled. "The Boy's Uncle made me Real," he said. "That was a great many years ago; but once you are Real you can't become unreal again. It lasts for always." The Rabbit sighed. He thought it would be a long time before this magic called Real happened to him. He longed to become Real, to know what it felt like; and yet the idea of growing shabby and losing his eyes and whiskers was rather sad. He wished that he could become it without these uncomfortable things happening to him. The Velveteen Rabbit You guys know that this is one of my favorite passages in ALL of literature. We, the fans of FK, who love and charish the show, it's characters, it's universe, the way it makes us feel, have made this show REAL. Unfortunately, becoming REAL is a painful process. So is growth. The list is just full of people all in differing stages of emotional growth with the ending of the original series eps. The list will live on...just in a different light. The warm light of familiarity. We too will be here with each other, discussing things in that warm light. Uncomfortable things will happen to us along the way. Life is like that. The list is like that. The real thing that will sustain the list is the love we have for the show, the moral of the story, the friendships we've developed, the ideas we have and will share. No matter how bad it gets, those are the things that will survive. I do not believe the list is dying. I think it is evolving. And evolution is a process where something is lost while another is attained. We lose the giddy feelings of anticipating something new (at least until the novels are released) and become more familiar with what we already have. And what we have, my dear friends, is wonderful and unique. Things that are wonderful and unique have a way of magic about them. Just like the Velveteen Rabbit. They become REAL and take on a live of their own. I, for one, plan on being here and watching it happen. Those 'old timers' on the list have become voices of wisdom to me, much like the Skin Horse, covered with battle scars, but, willing to help me survive my own wounds. Growth inflicts wounds. I always will.

I live in Massachuetts and I am trying to find the anniversay issue (I think it's #228) for Starlog. I've called around to different book stores, but so far no one carries it. When I called Evergreen Books and asked the woman if they carried Starlog, she said: "Starlog??!!! NO, we do NOT carry it" Was it something I said? Sheesh. Anyway, if someone lives in MA around the Framingham area, please let me know where I can pick up this issue. Eternally grateful, Lisa P. LadysAVamp@a....... p.s. (with me there always seems to be) This IS FK related :) ========================================================================= Date: Tue, 14 May 1996 21:20:13 -0500 From: Jacqueline Kiffe <jkiffe@c.......> Subject: Re: This list is going down (was: If someone annoys you) At 06:45 PM 5/14/96 -0400, Frederic Ferland wrote: >I think this list is dying.

I am brand-new to this list today, having discovered FK only a couple of months ago. I was stunned to find that the show had been canceled. But as for a dying list, it may not be so... I am a part of another very active list which is now about 18 months old. Members go out of their way to meet one another in whatever part of the world they are in, and we have made some amazing connections and had a wonderful time doing it. But interest waxes and wanes. There will be 1 or 2 posts a day for days on end, then 70-100 posts a day in a burst. Posts generate posts, and agreeing to disagree civilly (even if vehemently) ensures the life of the list. It kills me that I discovered the show only after it had been declared officially defunct. But lots of other shows have had a second life. Wouldn't it make a *killer* computer game, for example? Betcha I'm not the only latecomer fan. *I* don't intend to give up altogether. Hell, I only watch three TV shows (with X-Files and Deep Space Nine), so this is one-third of my passive entertainment time, not to mention the fact that there is just no substitute for Nigel Bennett's silky voice, even if it *was* Vachon's gorgeous locks and eyes that hooked me originally. So don't give up, Frederic. *I* (and everyone who joined after me) did not get to see your suggestion. And it *is* vacation month. I, myself, leave tomorrow for a trip through the American south.

We need a list of last ditch efforts to save Forever Knight! Serious stuff we impliment, this, we just dream about? ;) #1: Intercept a few Sony Execs on thier way home. Get a friendly vamp(Or a trained hypnotist if no vamps are available) to put the Whammy on them: "You *will* do everything in your power to bring back Forever Knight" #2: Hold a sit in in front of Sony/Tristar/USA(whatever)'s offices. Which do you think would be more effective? Not eating until we get FK back, or not *Stopping* drink blood(Real or not? ;) until we get it back? =) There's my attempt a humor for the day, I wonder who can try to add on. =) Just hope I don't make a fool of myself, seeing as this is my first actual non-question type post here, really. =) ___________________ ____________ \_ _ \_ _ \_ | \_ ____/::::::.

That means that if you're shy, you can still be included in it. All I'll need for that is your full name, your e-mail address, your age, where you live (town, state/province and country), what you do in life, and any other tidbit of information about you that you think could be interesting. Of course, I'd really appreciate it if you *did* send a photo, but that'll be up to you. If you are brave enough to have your face on the Net (hey! *I'm* brave enough for that, so I don't see why you wouldn't be :) but you don't have a scanner, send me your photo and I'll scan it for you (you'll even be able to send it to your other e-mail friends after that!)

Okay, I'll play. If FK was written by John Grisham, Amanda Cohen and Donald Schanke would have been blown up in the plane because they accidentally saw something that would reveal the T.O. police department was actually almost completely infiltrated by conspirators who want to make the city a haven for cigarette smuggling across Lake Ontario, and Reese, who would be the obvious representative of the evil mafia conspirators, is actually the only person that Nat can somehow manage to trust, and Nick is actually one of the conspirators, because he is the only one that Nat would confide in, and ... oh well, you get the idea. It would be even worse if it were John LeCarre. hmmmm...If FK were written by "Elizabeth Peters", Nat would carry a very heavy black purse, and use it to whack anyone who attacked her. MSGS ON (a non-FK comment (sorry)) My great claim to fame at the last Egyptian conference was that Barbara Mertz (who writes the Elizabeth Peters books) mistook my purse for hers and then put it down again, telling me she could tell ld tell it was not hers -- it was too heavy!!!) And then if FK was written by Agatha Christie -- We would have a whole long whole 2-hour movie starring Peter Ustinov, at the but in the end Lacroix WOULD have been the one who murdered Nick, even though he had been very convincingly cleared.

I have been on list since before there was a glimmer of hope for a second season...yep, remember the first campaign to save (bring back) the knight. Anyway, I have posted several questions such as vamp eye colors caddie sale, who finally got it and a few others... I did not get any responses. It seems that there is no dialogue regarding FK questions... only what if's... which is fine, but far from the high quality that once resided/discussions which took place here. Where is Lisa McDavid, Sharon, and some of the list elders? I enjoy all the newbie stuff, but the tone here is so different. Perhaps like some of the vampires of FK times have changed and it's time for me to move on. And *please* do not take this as a flame. It is not a flame nor a spark, just my thoughts... perhaps I even broke list rules, is this too personal?

If FK was written by Robert Heinlein, we would get technical explanations of the whys and wherefores of vampirism, and there would be amazing continuity -- Nick and Nat would be 'getting some', not only with each other but with most of the other characters in the book -- at least one major character would be a flaming redhead -- and the events of FK series canon AND of the FKFIC-L wars would be occurring simultaneously, and in the same book.

If Dostoyevsky wrote FK, everything would be pretty much the same in the Angst department but the length of the episodes would increase by a factor of five. Oh, and all the flashbacks would be in Russian. If Lillian Jackson Braun wrote FK, Nick would have a siamese vampire cat who unerringly finds all the clues, solving all his cases for him.

This is a sort of FKFIC-L and FORKNI-L listmembers' version of this game: If FK were written by Jamie Melody Randell, we wouldn't be able to tell who the characters were until about halfway through the series, and even she probably wouldn't know where the story was going, but we'd all be hopelessly addicted anyway. (Have you read her story "Work in Progress"??) If FK were written by Tippi Blevins, well.... I suppose we can all imagine a few of the wardrobe changes. <eg> If FK were written by Dianne le Mercennaire, it would look a lot like life on FORKNI-L and "life imitating art" would take on a while new meaning! ("Vice Versa II") If FK were written by Susan Garrett, one of the episodes would have two alternate endings -- one which was happy, touchy-feely, warm and fuzzy, and one in which every single character died, and the deaths were all Nick's fault. ("Assignment: Knight" and "Knight in Hell") If FK were written by Dotti Rhodes, Nick's hair would fall out because all the female characters would be running their hands through it all the time. <g> If FK were written by a confused newbie, the show would keep being sent to the wrong network. And some episodes would contain spoilers for future episodes. If FK were written by some of the filkers on this list, the theme music would be replaced by an altered version of the "Gilligan's Island" theme starting with the words: "Sit right back and you'll hear a tale, a tale of a vamp with angst..." If FK were written by Ophelia5 over on JADFE, some very interesting Nick & Nat scenes involving chains and/or a muzzle would have ensued, and the show would have to be broadcast on the Playboy Channel.

Something fun to respond to for a change... If Tony Hillerman wrote FK, it would take place on the Navajo reservation, and Nick would be a tribal policeman. He would meet up with the occasional Skinwalker and probably dispose of him in a way Joe Leaphorn would disapprove. If Barbara Carland wrote FK, Nat would always ... hesitate in her speech ... and the Villianous Lacroix would ... kidnap her for his own ... unnamed ... nefarious purposes, and Nick would ... save her and ... of course ... the whole show would ... just ... fade out on the ... kiss. (How can that woman *write* like this??) If James Burke wrote FK, we'd find out through torturous and fascinating paths of logic how vampirism led to the invention of the atomic bomb. Or maybe tofu.

If Lillian Jackson Braun wrote FK... Nick would have to grow a thick mustache, sooner or later every minor character will either murder or be murdered, and Nat's cat Sidney would be instrumental in finding clues. If Mercedes Lackey wrote FK... There would be no doubt about a possible relationship between LaCroix and Nick...heck, one would probably develop between Nat and Janette as well (ooo...here's a scary thought...get rid of the 5'oclock shadow on Vachon, and he's a ringer for the pics of Vanyel) If Raymond Feist wrote FK... Just as you were getting real attached to Nick--his way of thinking, his adventures, etc.....all of a sudden everything would shift to Vachon. If Susan Conant wrote FK... Everything would revolve around Jody's training of Perry. If Wendy and Richard Pini wrote FK... Nick would go on a quest to reunite all the lost vampiric tribes, find out why they exist, and hopefully get a cure. LaCroix would very nicely fill the Winnowill role. That's enough fer now.

My immediate boss at work seems to be convinced that I'll bring the wrath of god(s) and ruin the entire establishment if I so much as even MENTION the "V-word" - in any context, FK or otherwise. Sigh.... She seems to think I'll offend the managers. <rolling eyeballs> but she hasn't seemed to realize that I don't MENTION them around managers. Mind you, it's perfectly alright for her to discuss weird stuff with <shudder> customers, but I can't discuss vampires with LIKE-minded people. <shaking head> Go figure. Sorry, had to rant. Not-so-obligatory (Hey, I *love* it, it can't be obligatory!) FK: Tippi, I sent a note to that merchandise company. Hopefully mine will arrive with lots of others (HINT!!! HINT!!!) to persuade them to start getting stuff made. Yes,I suggested the "CAWFEEEE" mug with the bite taken out of it. <grin> Waiting to hear back from them... I watched Doctor Who tonight...yes, the FX budget is more, and IMO, a bit wasted except to grab new viewers. I've seen most of the old Doc, and have gotten quite fond of the cheezy sets. Anyway... The scene at the end where they toast the Master made me wonder... What would he have been like had Divia brought him across? Scary... re: undernet servers - "Joplin"??? As in Janis Joplin or just happenstance? I don't know of a town/city called Joplin, which makes me curious...

(I don't have web/FTP access easily, don't give me those addresses) I'm still looking for the 16 or 17-part FK/Knight Rider crossover story... Was posted sometime between a year and two years ago, I think. When I joined the FKFIC list, basically, was when I saw part 16. Or was it 15? The almost-end of the story. Basic idea: Nick and Michael Knight end up working on something together, and for one reason or another, Michael ends up being brought across. I remember reading a scene with Nick talking to KITT explaining what would be needed to help Michael. I also remember there *TWO* endings - because some people thought Michael should NOT have been brought across. I saw both endings. I never saved the story for one reason or another, or it got eaten somehow, so I don't have the title. What I've given is what I know. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thankx!
