Subject: From Enid Rodriguez (AKA "LadyEnid", EnidKnight)
Greetings to all:
As of January 12, 1999, I have set myself on NOMAIL for the major
Forever Knight lists, and on DIGEST for my factions. I will unable to attend
any chat rooms for quite some time, due to a personal emergency. I will
not being using my ICQ, or my Yahoo Messenger as well.
It looks like I will not be online very often. Don't worry, nothing is
terribly wrong,
I just need to get several things in order that will demand the majority
of my time.
I will miss everyone very much, and I will think about you.
If you definitely need to reach me, try to e-mail me at EnidKnight@a.......
Be well, all of you,

There was a Baywatch crossover. It was a VERY short one. LOL!
As for Nat's Twinkie comment... I think she was being sarcastic. The Twinkie
because it was probably a large yellow cake, which does look like a twinkie.
<<<< Is a "Twinkie" a different sort of pastry in Canada than it is here in

I think Nat was just joking, ribbing them for getting her a cheap birthday
cake.

I have to agree.
Snack cakes
Nick, and all the vampires - wouldn't eat one. Nat would try to make him try
either a snowball or a something like a chocolate Twinkie. I go for the
chocolate one.
Nat - anything chocolate. Probably also the snowballs, twinkies.
Tracy - snowballs, coffee cakes
Schanke - just about anything and everything. He does like donuts.
The various captains, I don't know. Stonetree - coffee cakes maybe. Cohen -
cinnamon bun, chocolate or twinkie maybe. Reese - maybe a cinnamon bun? or a
nice jelly donut.

One problem: vampires don't age. We've already seen the "age problem"
affect Highlander and STAR TREK (e.g., check Adrian Paul's hairline through
the progression of "Highlander: The Series", and Brent Spiner's hairline
through the progression of "STAR TREK: The Next Generation")... I can see
enough normal-human changes in Ger between FK Season 1 and BH Season 3
that some *cheesy* explanations would be needed to explain the difference...

Oh I dunno, the protein shakes, the fever...? (I have a feeling of deja vu,
here). I have plenty of cheese to go round.
We are BH-challenged in Britain. Does anyone have any tapes I could cover
the cost of? (Offlist, please).

- Too many Twinkies??
- Worrying about keeping all his loved ones out of danger... premature
greying.
- Too many late-night angst-fests. (aka Binge Angst-ing)
Just a few semi-cheesy explanations. ;)

And this would be a problem? Is this not what we do best? What else
have we been practicing for all these many years?
Personally, I'm ready to believe that a grey hair or two (or maybe a few
more missing) is a belated result of the Fever. I use less plausible
rationalizations every day to explain why I'm sitting here discussing
vampires instead of working. <g>

Brenda's got a very good pt. Although I'd like to see FK
back this gives the PTB a very good sword. At a recent get
together-FK-Gerathon with some friends (whome I met thru
fandom) We discussed the possibility of an FK spin off.
Here it is"
The hitch would be that Nick had found a way to be human,
or partway (hence aging) and now he was helping other
another struggling vampire looking for the cure & trying to
find humanity. The context could stay the same if the new
vampire was partnered to Nick by the now captain Tracy (hey
her Dad is Commish, she know's Nick's secret, and it's been
4 yrs), OR (if must be) a diferent captin suseptible to the
whammy. LC for all his anger continues to beat down hard on
both via his RADIO show (if they didn't want to have him on
camera too much). OR (as NB seems to be showing a bit of
human aging too) perhaps if Nick got a complete cure then
LC (as direct master) would involuntarily get a partial
cure... which puts him in limbo - thus increasing his
outrage. Their previous relationship could be explained
thru a sereis of flashbacks. In other words the focus (as
far as the network is concerned) of the show would move to
a new young network-pleasing character. Nick, LC, Nat &
Tracy, could stay and their roles could still be major so
it becomes like an ensemble, not just the one main
protagonist.
With lots of advertising (let's face it marketing is
EVERYTHING), some little stronger writing and better
concept this could really sweep everywhere..
This is just my IMHO realistic $0.02, not meant to offend
anyone.
