Pilar, sounds like you had a fun afternoon. I remember rushing home from school everyday to not miss Dark Shadows. Talk about camp and bad acting, but it was all the rage back then. So, yep, your niece could be well on her way of soap addiction. BTW, I'm a 'cool aunt' too, but my little niece is 23 this year and getting married, snif, snif.Oh Tuggs, loved Dark Shadows myself oh Barnabus Collins shivers I loved that storyline especially when they went into the past. But though it was campy & over the top alot I never thought it was MEANT to be funny... while I think Reilly intentionally makes Passions a hoot from the parody I saw!

Congrats on your niece's marriage btw. Wow, I really can't imagine my Katie getting married, sniff sniff, I had trouble when she outgrew Disney movies for goodness sakes! Yikes, buying her Blink 182 CD for her B-day took all the "coolness" I could muster! LOL! She's more my surrogate daughter than anything since she spent lots of time w/me in her early years.

Yep, my niece is my surrogate daughter too! I'll never forget the day she called me when she was about your Katie's age and said "Guess what Auntie, if Mom & Dad die, you get me!" The kid's a hoot! Or brace yourself for the future, when my niece called me much later telling me the first time she had sex, I was like "Whoa, I'm not ready for this!!" (NT) -- Tuggs, 13:19:44 03/16/01 Fri
Remember Quentin's theme? I also remember that actor was the hunk of the day. I loved the suspence you felt, you really were on the edge to find out what would happen the next day, it was great fun. (NT) -- Tuggs, 13:04:24 03/16/01 Fri
"Remember Quentin's theme?" Sure do! Remember the moors & the sound of the waves crashing into the cliffs at the beginning? I loved Angelique & that entire mystery of how she turned Barnabus into a vamp... I can still remember last episode in that basement w/bats flying. ICAM,Tuggs, every day was a cliffhanger, and next to GH's L&L on the run, caused me most nail biting! :-) (NT) -- Pilar, 13:14:14 03/16/01 Fri
Years later I'm still hooked on vampire shows like Buffy & Angel. :-) (NT) -- Pilar, 13:16:38 03/16/01 Fri
You know a woman at work has been trying to get me to watch Buffy. She says the character of Spike (his humor) reminds her of Todd. Maybe I ought to give it a try. (NT) -- Tuggs, 13:46:31 03/16/01 Fri
Hot sex scenes huh? And WHY couldn't Roger get this role, hmmmmm??!! LOL, Elisa I think you just convinced me! (NT) -- Tuggs, 15:42:43 03/16/01 Fri
Wow,Pilar!!! You and I are "simpatico"!!! I loved Dark Shadows as a kid--it contributed to a life-long obsession with the whole Vampire genre to this day. I like "Buffy", but find the writing too juvenile [Angel is only slightly better]. Do you like Anne Rice's Vampire Chronicles??? I have always pictured Roger Howarth as the Vampire Lestat!!!

Hi Trog42, would you settle for half "simpatico?" LOL! Sure, sometimes Buffy is juvenile writing especially last year w/Riley crap but I found the early years dealing w/Angel, the curse & slayer vs vamp legends quite riveting. Angel last year was trash IMO but suddenly took on a dark flavor w/the role he has to play in next big Apocalyspe & that burning Dru & Darla alive bit was VERY Angelus like, dark & twisted coolness he had.
