Was that last year?  our weather just  went crazy   last April   we  got  a
couple of major snow storms towards the end of the month.   Before  then
the  latest major snow storm  that I can remember   happened on April fools
day.  It can snow on Valentines day.   it can go up to seventy in March or
it can snow.  .   As a rule our weather starts to improve the  week after
the March break. Some years  the warmer weather comes quite quickly other
years you wait and wait.     Then just as you are  wondering if it will ever
get warm,  it gets hot and the next thing you know you've got the air
conditioning on.  last year  we turned off the furnace and then turned on
the air conditioning.

Toronto doesn't as a rule have much of a spring.  Our falls are usually
quite  nice   and can last into  late October or the  beginning of November.
  but don't count on Hallowe'en being a nice night.  It  rains more time
than it doesn't..

Woohoo!!!  That's a good excuse to buy a new blank VHS tape.  Do we
know what episodes will be shown?  Or is it only 1st season?

Yay is right.  It ought to  considering the amount of time they had to
change it.

He told me in Wolfville that he only committed to sometime in April. Since
the show is scheduled to close April 11 that fits his comments.

Subject: Nick Knight TV movie

I just scored the Rick Springfield movie at Wal-mart!  Bargain price of
$4.88 Canadian.  This one's just called "Nick Knight" & on the cover it says
also "It's taken two hundred years but this cop's past is about to catch up
with him."  Almost didn't recognise it for what it was until I turned it
over and saw pics of Rick and Michael Nader all vamped out.

Whee!

Subject: popcorn scene & fangs

I've been catching up on digests & noticed question about the popcorn
scene. A long, long time ago, someone explained on the list that the
reason CD was so upset had to do with GWD arranging to have the
camera running & pointing at her while she was stuffing herself with
popcorn. Natalie, of course, is upset by the fangs. Please correct me
if I have this wrong.

I got my copy of the original Nick Knight movie at about the same price as
Amy, except in American dollars at a local supermarket chain called Cub last
week when we were out at our lake cabin.

Now we have to get a DVD player.

Subject: FWD: Nick's age

This message forwarded on behalf of Mary Lynn <wirickml@v.......>.

------- begin forwarded message -------

Hi all,

Just my two cents worth.

In Night in Question, Nat tells Nick he has been a vampire for 767 years. He
also states in the ep. that he figures his age (if I remember right) to be
between 30 and 40 years old. Nat said he was a little off. Taken the fact Ger
was born in 1957 and subtracting when the episode was filmed, apply that to
1228 and subtract that figure and you can come up with the approximate year
Nick was born.

Just my thoughts.

Subject: Shades of AMPH

I was reading the news on Yahoo and there is an article that they are
tracking a asteroid that is going to come VERY close to the earth in
2014.  They don't know if it will hit or not, but if it does it will
have the impact of 20 Million atomic bombs (aka what was dropped on
Hiroshima)
I immediately thought of AMPH!!  Maybe it's a hoax to liven up the
stockmarket.

You can read the article buy going to
http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&cid=570&ncid=753&e=1&u=/nm/20030902/sc_nm/science_asteroid_dc

If the link doesn't work, go to Yahoo.com, click on news, and go to
the science section.  It is kind of freaky that the estimated date of
impact would be the day before my birthday.
